Bartonella gabonensis sp. nov., a new bartonella species from savannah rodent Lophuromys sp. in Franceville, Gabon

We describe a new strain named Bartonella gabonensis sp. nov. strain 669(T) (CSURB1083). The entire genome of this strain is described here. It was isolated from a savannah rodent, a brush-furred rat (Lophuromys sp.), trapped the city of Franceville in Gabon, in Central Africa. B. gabonensis is an a...

Sumario:We describe a new strain named Bartonella gabonensis sp. nov. strain 669(T) (CSURB1083). The entire genome of this strain is described here. It was isolated from a savannah rodent, a brush-furred rat (Lophuromys sp.), trapped the city of Franceville in Gabon, in Central Africa. B. gabonensis is an aerobic, rod-shaped and Gram-negative bacterium. On the basis of the organism's features, and following a taxonogenomic approach, we propose the creation of the species Bartonella gabonensis sp. nov.
