| bifidobacterium apri sp. nov., a thermophilic actinobacterium isolated from the digestive tract of wild pigs (sus scrofa). | fresh samples of intestinal contents of three wild pigs originating from the central bohemia region were examined for the presence of bifidobacterial strains. during the study, we isolated many fructose-6-phosphate phosphoketolase-positive, strictly anaerobic, irregular rod-shaped bacterial isolates. three of them were preliminarily identified as representing a novel species of the genus bifidobacterium because their 16s rrna gene sequence similarity with the closest relatives of thermophilic bi ... | 2017 | 28714841 |
