<i>Vibrio tarriae</i> sp. nov., a novel member of the Cholerae clade isolated from across the United States
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract A number of bacteria with close resemblance to Vibrio cholerae has been isolated over the years by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which could not be assigned a proper taxonomic designation based on preliminary identification methods. Nine such isolates have been found to share 16S rRNA gene identity exceeding 99% with V. cholerae , yet DNA-DNA hybridization (60.4-62.1%) and average nucleotide identity values (94.4-95.1%) were below the species cut-off, indicating a potentially novel species. Phylogenetic analysis of core genomes places this group of isolates in a monophyletic clade, within the “Cholerae clade,” but distinct from any other species. Extensive phenotypic characterization reveals unique biochemical properties that distinguish this novel species from V. cholerae . Comparative genomic analysis reveals a unique set of siderophore genes, suggesting that iron acquisition strategies could be vital for the divergence of the novel species from a common ancestor with V. cholerae . Based on genetic, phylogenetic, and phenotypic differences observed, we propose these isolates represent a novel species of the genus Vibrio , for which the name Vibrio tarriae sp. nov. is proposed. Strain 2521-89 (= DSM 112461 = CCUG 75318), isolated from lake water, is the type strain. Author Notes The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain 2521-89 is MW773202.1 . The genome sequences (genome assemblies) of strains 2521-89, 2523-88, 2015V-1076, 2016V-1018, 2016V-1062, 2017V-1038, 2017V-1070 and 2017V-1124 are deposited under the accession number NZ_CP022353.1, QKKG01000001.1, QKKH00000000.1, QKKI00000000.1, QKKJ00000000.1, QKKK00000000.1, QKKM00000000.1, and QKKN00000000.1, respectively. All the whole genome sequences are deposited under bioproject ID: PRJNA391152.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
