‘Massilibacteroïdes vaginae’ gen. nov., sp. nov., a new genus within the family of Bacteroïdaceae isolated from a patient with vaginosis

Abstract ‘Massilibacteroides vaginae' sp. nov. strain MV12 T is the type strain of ‘Massilibacteroides' gen. nov., a new genus within the family of Porphyromonadaceae. This strain was isolated in Marseille from a patient with vaginosis. ‘Massilibacteroides vaginae' is a Gram-negative, aero-anaerobic bipolar bacillus. Here we describe the phenotypic characteristics and complete genome sequence of this bacterium. The EMBL accession number is FXDJ00000000 (FXDJ01000001–FXDJ01000009), and its genome consists of nine scaffolds. The strain was deposited in two culture collections under the numbers CSUR P1477 and DSM 100704.
