Abstract:
We report two Streptococcus strains (FT1-55/FT1-106) isolated from Shenzhen wastewater. Their genomes (~2.35 Mb; GC ~38.5%) show high relatedness (average nucleotide identity: 97.8%-98.0%) to Streptococcus orisratti yet form a distinct phylogenetic clade, supporting their proposal as a novel subspecies, Streptococcus orisratti subsp. futianensis subsp. nov.
