Reliable delineation of <i>Clostridioides difficile</i> and related members of the family Peptostreptococcaceae using phylogenomics and spore coat protein–specific molecular markers

2025-12-09

Abstract excerpt

Traditional bacterial classification relies on phenotypic traits (e.g., morphology, metabolic profiles), but these methods lack resolution for closely related taxa and are biased by culture conditions. While 16S rRNA gene sequencing is a widely used molecular complement, it fails to resolve closely related Peptostreptococcaceae species, including Clostridioides difficile . These limitations have caused family-lev...
