| brucella vulpis sp. nov., isolated from mandibular lymph nodes of red foxes (vulpes vulpes). | two slow-growing, gram-negative, non-motile, non-spore-forming, coccoid bacteria (strains f60t and f965), isolated in austria from mandibular lymph nodes of two red foxes (vulpes vulpes), were subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic analysis. in a recent study, both isolates were assigned to the genus brucella but could not be attributed to any of the existing species. hence, we have analysed both strains in further detail to determine their exact taxonomic position and genetic relatedness to other ... | 2016 | 26928956 |
