Sellimonas caecigallum sp. nov., description and genome sequence of a new member of the Sellimonas genus isolated from the cecum of feral chicken
An obligately anaerobic, non-motile, Gram-positive coccobacillus strain SW451 was isolated from pooled caecum contents of feral chickens. Based on taxono-genomic, and biochemical analyses, the strain SW451 represents a new species of the genus Sellimonas, for which the name Sellimonas caecigallum sp...

| Summary: | An obligately anaerobic, non-motile, Gram-positive coccobacillus strain SW451 was isolated from pooled caecum contents of feral chickens. Based on taxono-genomic, and biochemical analyses, the strain SW451 represents a new species of the genus Sellimonas, for which the name Sellimonas caecigallum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Sellimonas caecigallum is SW451 (=DSM 109473T = CCOS 1879T). Keywords: Culturomics, feral chicken, new species, Sellimonas caecigallum, taxono-genomics |
