Register list for 3 new names including Pristimantibacillus lignocellulolyticus sp. nov.

Abstract

In this study, the polymer-degrading capability of a minimal lignocellulolytic microbial consortium (MELMC) was explored by genome-resolved metagenomics. The MELMC was mostly composed (>90%) of three bacterial members (Pseudomonas protegens; Pristimantibacillus lignocellulolyticus gen. nov., sp. nov; and Ochrobactrum gambitense sp. nov) recognized by their high-quality metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs). Here, the PacBio-HiFI metagenome sequencing was useful to reconstruct the genomes of the three most abundant MELMC species, unveiling two novel bacterial taxa involved in lignocellulose and plastics transformation.

Genus Pristimantibacillus

Etymology
[Pris.ti.man.ti.ba.cil'lus] N.L. masc. n. Pristimantis, from Pristimantis natural reserve, where soil samples were taken to select the minimal lignocellulolytic bacterial consortium including a member of this taxon; L. masc. n. bacillus, little staff, a rod; N.L. masc. n. Pristimantibacillus, a rod-shapped cell from Pristimantis natural reserve
Nomenclatural type
Species Pristimantibacillus lignocellulolyticusTs
Description
A genus established on the basis of MiGA taxonomic novelty analyses, AAI, dDDH, 16S rRNA gene phylogenetic reconstruction, and phylogenomic analyses and is classified as a member of the Paenibacillaceae family. The type species of the genus is Pristimantibacillus lignocellulolyticus.
Classification
Bacteria » Bacillota » Bacilli » Caryophanales » Paenibacillaceae » Pristimantibacillus
