Sammanfattning

Average nucleotide identity analysis, based on whole genome sequences of 115 strains previously identified as Aerococcus urinae, an emerging uropathogen, discriminates at least six unique genomic taxa. The whole genome analysis affords clearer species boundaries over 16S rRNA gene sequencing and traditional phenotypic approaches for the identification and phylogenetic organization of Aerococcus species. The newly described species can be differentiated by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight analysis of protein signatures. We propose the emendation of the description of A. urinae (type strain ATCC 51268T = CCUG 34223T=NCFB 2893) and the names of Aerococcus tenax sp. nov. (ATCC TSD-302T = DSM 115700T = CCUG 76531T=NR-58630T), Aerococcus mictus sp. nov. (ATCC TSD-301T = DSM 115699T = CCUG 76532T=NR-58629T), and Aerococcus loyolae sp. nov. (ATCC TSD-300T = DSM 115698T = CCUG 76533T=NR-58628T) for three of the newly identified genomic taxa.
