Abstract
'Massilibacteroïdes vaginae' sp. nov. strain MV12(T) is the type strain of 'Massilibacteroïdes' gen. nov., a new genus within the family of Porphyromonadaceae. This strain was isolated in Marseille from a patient with vaginosis. 'Massilibacteroïdes vaginae' is a Gram-negative, aero-anaerobic bipolar bacillus. Here we describe the phenotypic characteristics and complete genome sequence of this bacterium. The EMBL accession number is FXDJ00000000 (FXDJ01000001-FXDJ01000009), and its genome consists of nine scaffolds. The strain was deposited in two culture collections under the numbers CSUR P1477 and DSM 100704.
