Abstract

The taxonomic position of

Yersinia kristensenii

subsp.

rochesterensis

and

Yersinia occitanica

was re-evaluated by genomic analysis. Average nucleotide identity (ANI), digital DNA–DNA hybridization values, and phylogenetic analyses of the type strains indicate that

Y. kristensenii

subsp.

rochesterensis

and

Y. occitanica

are the same genospecies. Additionally, the overall genomic relatedness index (OGRI) values reveal that

Y. kristensenii

subsp.

rochesterensis

should be elevated to species status as Yersinia rochesterensis sp. nov.
