Vagococci are usually isolated from marine hosts and occasionally from endodontic infections. Using 16S rRNA gene comparison, the closest relatives are members of the genera Enterococcus and Carnobacterium. A draft sequence of Vagococcus lutrae was generated to clarify the relationship of Vagococcus to these and other related low-G+C Gram-positive bacteria.
漫游球菌通常从海洋宿主中分离得到,偶尔也从牙髓感染中分离得到。通过16S rRNA基因比较,其最接近的亲缘属是肠球菌属和肉杆菌属。为了阐明漫游球菌与这些以及其他相关的低G+C革兰氏阳性菌之间的关系,生成了lutrae漫游球菌的草图序列。
