    Abstract:
    Currently, Lactococcus garvieae contains two subspecies: L. garvieae subsp. bovis and L. garvieae subsp. garvieae. In a study by Varsha and Nampoothiri, high pheS (99.7 %) and rpoA (99.6 %) sequence similarities indicated that L. garvieae subsp. bovis and Lactococcus formosensis probably have a close taxonomic relationship; low pheS (92.2 %) and rpoA (97.8 %) sequence similarities and relatively low DNA-DNA hybridization value (75.8 %) indicated that L. garvieae subsp. bovis and L. garvieae subsp. garvieae probably represent two different species. In the present study, the taxonomic relationships between L. garvieae subsp. bovis, L. garvieae subsp. garvieae and L. formosensis were re-examined based on sequence analyses of 16S rRNA, pheS, recA, rpoA and rpoB genes, average nucleotide identity (ANI), digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values, average amino acid identity (AAI), fatty acid methyl ester analysis and phenotypic characterization. L. garvieae subsp. bovis LMG 30663T exhibited 97.3 % ANI, 78.3 % dDDH and 96.4 % AAI values to L. formosensis NBRC 109475T, higher than the threshold for species demarcation (95-96, 70 and 95-96 %, respectively), indicating that L. garvieae subsp. bovis LMG 30663T and L. formosensis NBRC 109475T belong to the same species. L. garvieae subsp. bovis LMG 30663T had 91.2 % ANI, 43.3 % dDDH and 92.9-93.0% AAI values with the type strain of L. garvieae subsp. garvieae, indicating that they represent two different species. Because L. formosensis has been proposed and validated before L. garvieae subsp. bovis, L. garvieae subsp. bovis is transferred to L. formosensis as L. formosensis subsp. bovis comb. nov. The type strain of L. formosensis subsp. bovis is BSN307T (=DSM 100577T=MCC 2824T=KCTC 21083T=LMG 30663T). The type strain of L. formosensis subsp. formosensis is 516T (=NBRC 109475T=BCRC 80576T).
