Morphology
The taxon 144, respresented by strain D8-51T, is phylogenetically closest to Adlercreutzia caecimuris48, with 16S rRNA gene identity of 97%. Phylogenetic tree shows that strain D8-51T clusters with other members of the genus Adlercreutzia, suggesting strain D8-51T is a member of the genus Adlercreutzia. The genome of strain D8-51T was sequenced and the GenBank accession number is QXXI00000000. Genome-based analyses showed that the ANI value of genomes of strain D8-51T and E. caecimuris B7 acPFx-supercont1.1(NZ KE159646) is 84.3%, the POCP value is 68.7% and the dDDH estimation is 36.80%. Based on these results, we concluded that the strain D8-51T represents of new species of the genus Adlercreutzia, and the name Adlercreutzia faecis sp. nov. is proposed. Cells are strictly anaerobic short rods (1–2 μm long by 0.3–0.5 μm wide). Pinpoint, entire, convex, off-white-grey and slightly opaque colonies appear on MGAM agar plate after 8 days of incubation. Growth occurs at temperature of 30-37 °C and at pH of 7.0-7.5. The organism can use D-cellobiose, D-fructose, L-fucose, D-galactose, D-galacturonic acid, gentiobiose, D-glucosaminic acid, α-D-glucose, glucose-6-phosphate, glycerol, M-inositol, lactulose, D-mannose, D-melibiose, 3-melthyl-D-glucose, palatinose, L-rhamnose, turanose, pyruvic acid and L-methionine as the carbon source for growth, and weakly metabolizes adonitol, D-Arabitol, dextrin, dulcitol, I-erythritol, α-D-lactose, maltose, α-Methyl-D-Galactoside, D-Sorbitol, acetic acid, α-ketovaleric acid, propionic acid and L-Valine. The DNA G+C content is 63.2 mol%.
