16S rRNA gene sequencing was performed on the species Lactobacillus minutus, Lactobacillus rimae and Streptococcus parvulus in order to clarify their taxonomic position. Based on comparative sequence analyses these organisms represent a hitherto unknown line of descent within the lactic acid group of bacteria for which a new genus, Atopobium gen. nov., is proposed.
为了明确微小乳杆菌、边缘乳杆菌和微小链球菌的分类地位,对其进行了16S rRNA基因测序。基于比较序列分析,这些微生物代表了乳酸菌组内一个迄今未知的谱系,为此提出了一个新属——阿托波氏菌属(Atopobium gen. nov.)。
