RESUMEN
As a kind of tonic Chinese medicine with dual use in medicine and food, there is a large market demanding for Codonopsis pilosula. Taking one-year-old C. pilosula seedlings as materials, we conducted a field experiment to examine the effect of compound fertilizer (750 kg·hm-2), organic fertilizer (15 t·hm-2) and Streptomyces pactum Act12 agent (9 t·hm-2 Act12+10 t·hm-2 organic fertilizer) treatments on root morphology, secondary metabolite content and expression level of lobetyolin metabolic pathway gene of C. pilosula, to clarify the effects of three fertilizers on the root morphology and medicinal quality. Compared to the control (10 t·hm-2 organic fertilizer, conventional fertilization), three fertilization treatments could promote root growth and formation. All fertilization treatments promoted the accumulation of C. pilosula polysaccharides and secondary metabolites. Act12 agent significantly increased the content of lobetyolin, atractylenolideIII, and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural. The qRT-PCR analysis indicated that three fertilization treatments increased the expression level of lobetyolin metabolic pathway genes, with Act12 agent treatment showing the most significant effect. Pearson correlation analysis demonstrated that the expression level of CpHCT and CpFAD genes was significantly positively correlated with atractylenolide III content. In conclusion, three fertilization treatments could effectively improve the yield and quality of C. pilosula. Among the three treatments, Act12 agent performed better than that of compound fertilizer and organic fertilizer, which was an effective measure to increase the yield and quality of C. pilosula.

In this paper, we proposed an axially slow-variation microbubble resonator fabricated by an improved arc discharge method and applied to axial strain sensing. The prepared resonators are characterized by ultra-thin wall thickness and axial slow-variation. The wall thickness was experimentally measured to reach 938â nm and maintain a quality factor of an optical mode as large as 7.36 ×107. The main factors affecting the strain sensitivity of the microbubble resonators are investigated theoretically and experimentally. Experimentally, the maximum sensitivity measured was 13.08pm/µÎµ, which is three times higher than the microbubble resonators without this method. The device is simple to prepare and possesses ultra-thin wall thickness. It is promising for applications in high-precision sensing, such as single molecule and biological sensing.
RESUMEN
To compare the effects of differences in Daqu making technology and production regions on the bacterial composition and physicochemical properties of high-temperature Daqu (HTD), this study analyzed the bacterial community structure of three colors of HTD in the Qingzhou production area and measured their physicochemical quality. At the same time, a comparative analysis was conducted on the bacterial composition of Qingzhou and Xiangyang regions. The results revealed that the HTD in the Qingzhou area exhibited a diverse bacterial community dominated by Lentibacillus, Scopulibacillus, and Staphylococcus. The black HTD displayed the lowest bacterial richness (P < 0.05) and a relatively unique microbial structure. Significant variations were observed in the physicochemical qualities of the three colors of HTD. Notably, white HTD demonstrated higher moisture and ash content, saccharification and liquor-producing power. Yellow HTD exhibited higher amino nitrogen and protein content, and black HTD displayed higher water activity, acidity, and starch content. The variation in Bacillus, Limosilactobacillus, and Weissella distributions across different colors of HTD primarily contributed to these findings. From the HTD samples in the Qingzhou area, Bacillus (61.90 %) and lactic acid bacteria (17.46 %) being the predominant cultivable communities. Cluster analysis identified significant differences in bacterial communities among HTD samples from various production areas. It can enhance the understanding of HTD quality in the Qingzhou area and offer insights for optimizing HTD and Maotai-flavor Baijiu quality.
RESUMEN
In order to explore the flexural behavior of a concrete sandwich panel under concentrated boundary conditions, based on Kirachhoff's elastic thin plate theory in this paper, the geometric deformation, physical conditions, and equilibrium relationship of a sandwich panel are deduced by constructing the layered analysis model of the sandwich panel, the basic differential equation of the flexural deformation of the concrete sandwich thin plate is obtained, and the mathematical expression of the internal force and displacement under the boundary condition of concentrated support is given. Combined with an engineering example, the proposed calculation method is verified. The results show that, in the arrangement of reliable connectors for concrete sandwich panels, the concrete wythes bear the load while the contribution of the core layer to the bending capacity of the structure can be ignored. When subjected to a laterally distributed load, the sandwich panel mainly experiences out-of-plane bending deformation, and the bending normal stress in the concrete panel layer shows a linear non-uniform distribution along the thickness direction of the panel. The bending deformation performance and bearing efficiency of a concrete sandwich slab with the change in concentrated support position have significant effects, and the load transfer efficiency can be improved by optimizing the arrangement of supports. Except for small local areas near the supports, the bending stress distribution and deformation behavior of the concrete sandwich panel can be accurately analyzed by the calculation method established in this paper.
RESUMEN
This study performed a comparative analysis of the sensory and microbial profiles of light-flavor Bijou (LFD) from Taiyuan (Shanxi Province) and Suizhou (Hubei Province) in China. The results of the electronic nose showed that the aromatic substances of the LFD from Taiyuan (TLFD) were significantly higher (p < .05), while alcohol and aldehyde substances were significantly lower (p < .05) compared with the LFD from Suizhou (SLFD). The average response values of sensors W1C (sensitive to aromatic hydrocarbons), W3C (sensitive to amine and aromatic components), W5C (sensitive to olefins, aromatics, and polar molecules), and W2S (sensitive to alcohol and aldehyde compounds) to TLFD were 0.26, 0.33, 0.34, and 7.72, whereas the response values to SLFD were 0.25, 0.32, 0.33, and 8.04, respectively. The electronic tongue results showed that the aftertaste A (bitter aftertaste) and aftertaste B (astringent aftertaste) of the TLFD were significantly higher (p < .05) and umami was significantly lower (p < .05) as compared to the SLFD. The relative intensities of the aftertaste A, aftertaste B, and umami indicators of TLFD were 0.10, -0.008, and -0.22, respectively, while those of SLFD were -0.23, -0.36, and 0.835, respectively. MiSeq high-throughput sequencing results showed that TLFD exhibited lower fungal richness and diversity compared to SLFD. The dominant bacterial genera were mainly Bacillus (58.12%), Kroppenstedtia (10.11%), and Weissella (6.26%), and the dominant fungal genera were Saccharomycopsis (67.53%), Rasamsonia (9.90%), and Thermoascus (7.10%). Streptomyces and Staphylococcus were identified as the key characteristic microorganisms in TLFD, while Kroppenstedtia, Rasamsonia, and Thermoascus were the key characteristic microorganisms in SLFD. Correlation analysis indicated a stronger correlation between microorganisms and sensory characteristics in SLFD samples. This study provides valuable insights into the sensory and microbiological characteristics of LFD from different regions and offers a new perspective for understanding the production of differently flavored light-flavor Baijiu.
RESUMEN
To explore the microbial diversity and flavor profiles of stinky acid, we utilized high-throughput sequencing, culture-based techniques, and bionic E-sensory technologies. The results revealed a significant correlation between the acidity levels of stinky acid and the richness of its microbial community. Ten core bacterial genera and three core fungal genera exhibited ubiquity across all stinky acid samples. Through E-nose analysis, it was found that sulfides constituted the principal odor compounds responsible for stinky acid's distinct aroma. Further insights arose from the correlation analysis, indicating the potential contribution of Debaryomyces yeast to the sour taste profile. Meanwhile, three genera-Rhizopus and Thermoascus and Companilactobacillus-were identified as contributors to aromatic constituents. Interestingly, the findings indicated that Rhizopus and Thermoascus could reduce the intensity of the pungent odor of stinky acid. In summary, this investigation's outcomes offer new insights into the complex bacterial diversity of stinky acid.
RESUMEN
High-temperature Daqu (HTD) is the starter for producing sauce-flavor Baijiu, with different-colored Daqu (white, yellow, and black) reflecting variations in fermentation chamber conditions, chemical reactions, and associated microbiota. Understanding the relationship between Daqu characteristics and flavor/taste is challenging yet vital for improving Baijiu fermentation. This study utilized metagenomic sequencing, physicochemical analysis, and electronic sensory evaluation to compare three different-colored HTD and their roles in fermentation. Fungi and bacteria dominated the HTD-associated microbiota, with fungi increasing as the fermentation temperature rose. The major fungal genera were Aspergillus (40.17%) and Kroppenstedtia (21.16%), with Aspergillus chevalieri (25.65%) and Kroppenstedtia eburnean (21.07%) as prevalent species. Microbial communities, functionality, and physicochemical properties, particularly taste and flavor, were color-specific in HTD. Interestingly, the microbial communities in different-colored HTDs demonstrated robust functional complementarity. White Daqu exhibited non-significantly higher α-diversity compared to the other two Daqu. It played a crucial role in breaking down substrates such as starch, proteins, hyaluronic acid, and glucan, contributing to flavor precursor synthesis. Yellow Daqu, which experienced intermediate temperature and humidity, demonstrated good esterification capacity and a milder taste profile. Black Daqu efficiently broke down raw materials, especially complex polysaccharides, but had inferior flavor and taste. Notably, large within-group variations in physicochemical quality and microbial composition were observed, highlighting limitations in color-based HTD quality assessment. Water content in HTD was associated with Daqu flavor, implicating its crucial role. This study revealed the complementary roles of the three HTD types in sauce-flavor Baijiu fermentation, providing valuable insights for product enhancement.

Backward stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in optical microcavities has been widely used in nonlinear optics and microwave photonics. Compared with glass material microcavity, magnesium fluoride crystal microcavity has the advantages of small absorption coefficient, fewer defects and larger nonlinear coefficient, moreover, it usually has a narrow gain bandwidth of tens of megahertz. Here, we design a high precision machining system to produce ultra-smooth surface magnesium fluoride crystal disk cavities with a diameter of about 5 mm, Q value exceeding 108, FSR matching material Brillouin gain. By simply modulating the pump wavelength and coupling power, we observe SBS phenomena with a 13.47â GHz Brillouin frequency shift near 1.55µm and cascaded stimulated Brillouin lasers (SBL) of up to 12 orders. In addition, the Brillouin-Kerr optical frequency comb in this device is demonstrated, observing nearly 300 comb lines spanning across a spectral window of 250â nm. Our research provides a way to fabricate high-Q crystal microcavities and demonstrates the potential of these devices in applications such as microwave sources and nonlinear optics.
RESUMEN
Complex microorganisms in Daqu of different temperatures play a vital role in the taste, flavor and quality of Baijiu during fermentation. However, understanding the functional diversity of the whole microbial community between the Daqus of two different temperatures (high temperature Daqu, HD and medium-high temperature Daqu, MD) remains a major challenge. Here, a systematic study of the microbial diversity, functions as well as physiological and biochemical indexes of Daqu are described. The results revealed that the Daqu exhibited unique characteristics. In particular, the diversity of microorganisms in HD and MD was high, with 44 species including 14 novel species (Sphingomonas sp. is the main novel species) detected in all samples. Their profiles of carbohydrate-active enzymes and specific functional components supported the fact that these species were involved in flavor formation. The Daqu microbiome consisted of a high proportion of phage, providing evidence of phage infection/genome integration and horizontal gene transfer from phage to bacteria. Such processes would also regulate Daqu microbiomes and thus flavor quality. These results enrich current knowledge of Daqu and can be used to promote the development of Baijiu fermentation technology.

In recent years, antibiotic residues are commonly detected in a variety of water bodies, causing serious threat to water ecosystems and human health. The removal of antibiotic contaminants from water based on the advanced oxidation process of activated persulfate has become a hot research topic due to its strong oxidative properties, high selectivity, and wide pH applicability range. Iron-based bimetallic materials with low cost, high stability, and excellent catalytic performance can effectively activate persulfate, which makes up for the defects of being a single iron activator, such as easy deactivation, low efficiency, and producing secondary pollution easily. Three typical Fe-based bimetallic catalysts, namely spinel ferrite, Fe-based layered double hydroxides, and Fe-based Prussian blue analogues, were investigated and analyzed for their activation of persulfate for antibiotic degradation. Several intrinsic mechanisms of persulfate activation by Fe-based bimetallic catalysts are systematically discussed, including the generation of free radicals, singlet oxygen, and high-valent metals; the process of electron transfer; and the direct oxidation process of persulfate. Finally, the general degradation pathways of four typical antibiotics, including fluoroquinolones, sulfonamides, tetracyclines, and ß-lactam antibiotics, are summarized to act as a reference for future studies on the application of Fe-based bimetallic catalysts and their modifications, derivatives, and complexes in the activating technology of persulfate.

BACKGROUND: Chronic atrophic gastritis is a persistent disorder of the digestive system where the gastric mucosa epithelium and glands undergo atrophy, leading to a decrease in their number and thinning of the gastric mucosa. It is worth noting that the prevalence of chronic atrophic gastritis is higher in China compared to the global average, and it is also considered a precancerous condition for gastric cancer. AIM: To evaluate the efficacy of Huangqi Jianzhong decoction in treating chronic atrophic gastritis. Chronic atrophic gastritis is a persistent illness characterized by the progressive disappearance of healthy gastric glands due to repeated injury. Huangqi Jianzhong decoctions are widely used in China to treat chronic atrophic gastritis. However, there is limited scientific evidence regarding their efficacy in treating this illness. METHODS: The present meta-analysis adhered to the PRISMA guidelines and used the Cochrane Collaboration methodology. We performed a comprehensive search for clinical trials investigating the use of Huangqi Jianzhong decoction in treating chronic atrophic gastritis published until January 2023. The risk of bias and the quality of the included studies were evaluated using the Cochrane Handbook guidelines. Finally, a meta-analysis was conducted using the RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS: This study included a total of 13 articles, comprising 1269 samples. The meta-analysis was conducted on these 13 articles, yielding the following results: I2 = 0%, P = 0.60, [RR = 1.24, 95%CI: 1.18 to 1.30, P < 0.00001]. The forest plot analysis of the Helicobacter pylori clearance rate revealed I2 = 0%, P = 0.36, [RR = 1.20, 95%CI: 1.05 to 1.38, P = 0.009]. The forest plot of PG-I level showed I2 = 99%, P < 0.00001, [MD = 4.99, 95%CI: -1.59 to 11.58, P = 0.14]. The forest plot of stomach pain demonstrated I2 = 54%, P = 0.04, [MD = -0.63, 95%CI: -0.68 to -0.58, P < 0.00001]. The forest plot of reflux indicated I2 = 82%, P = 0.0009, [MD = -0.48, 95%CI: -0.63 to -0.33, P < 0.00001]. The forest plot of recurrence rate exhibited I2 = 0%, P = 0.92, [RR = 0.15, 95%CI: 0.04 to 0.66, P = 0.01]. The forest plot of adverse reactions showed no heterogeneity in outcome data, [RR = 1.07, 95%CI: 0.53 to 2.17, P = 0.86]. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated that Huangqi Jianzhong decoction improved various factors in adults with chronic atrophic gastritis. These factors included the total effective rate, Helicobacter pylori clearance rate, symptoms such as stomachache and acid reflux alleviation, and recurrence rates.

The emergence and spread of carbapenemase genes, colistin resistance genes mcr-1, and tigecycline resistance gene tet(X) represent a significant threat to clinical therapy and public health. In this study, we investigated the presence of carbapenemase genes, mcr-1, and tet(X) in 298 Escherichia coli strains obtained from a teaching hospital in China. In total, eight (2.68%), six (2.01%), and one (0.34%) E. coli isolates carried blaNDM, mcr-1, and tet(X4), respectively. The blaNDM gene was located on IncX3 (n = 4), F2:A-:B- (n = 3), and F2:A1:B1 (n = 1) plasmids, with high similarity to multiple plasmids belonging to the same incompatibility type from Enterobacteriaceae. Six MCR-producing strains contained mcr-1-carrying IncI2 plasmids, organized similarly to other mcr-1-bearing IncI2 plasmids from animals in China. The blaCTX-M-55/64/132/199 gene located within a typical transposition unit (ISEcp1-blaCTX-M-orf477Δ) was inserted near dnaJ to generate 5-bp direct repeats in four mcr-1-positive plasmids. The tet(X) and another four resistance genes [aadA2, tet(A), floR, and Δlnu(F)] were co-located on an IncX1 plasmid, highly similar to other tet(X4)-carrying IncX1 plasmids from Escherichia and Klebsiella of animal or food origin, except that the conjugative transfer region of IncX1 plasmids was absent in our plasmid. Although a low prevalence of blaNDM, mcr-1, and tet(X) was observed in E. coli from patients in this study, their dissemination associated with some successful pandemic plasmids is of great concern. The continued surveillance of these crucial resistance genes in patients should be strengthened.
RESUMEN
Detection and recovery of audio signals using optical methods is an appealing topic. Observing the movement of secondary speckle patterns is a convenient method for such a purpose. In order to have less computational cost and faster processing, one-dimensional laser speckle images are captured by an imaging device, while it sacrifices the ability to detect speckle movement along one axis. This paper proposes a laser microphone system to estimate the two-dimensional displacement from one-dimensional laser speckle images. Hence, we can regenerate audio signals in real time even as the sound source is rotating. Experimental results show that our system is capable of reconstructing audio signals under complex conditions.
RESUMEN
In the Shennongjia region of China, two types of zha-chili with distinct flavors exist: the first type (P zha-chili) uses a significant amount of chili pepper but no potato, while the other (PP zha-chili) contains a smaller amount of chili pepper but a proportion of potato. In order to investigate the bacterial diversity and sensory properties of these two types of zha-chili, this study employed a combination of amplicon sequencing, culture-based methods, and sensory technology. The results of the study showed statistically significant differences (P < 0.05) in bacterial diversity and communities between the two types of zha-chili. In particular, four dominant lactic acid bacteria (LAB) genera - Lactiplantibacillus, Lactococcus, Leuconostoc, and Weissella - were significantly enriched in PP zha-chili. The findings suggest that the proportions of chili pepper and potato can influence the bacterial diversity and content of LAB, with a higher proportion of chili pepper potentially inhibiting the growth of harmful species within the Enterobacteriaceae family. The study also used culture-based methods to identify the most dominant bacteria in the zha-chili samples as Lactiplantibacillus plantarum group, Companilactobacillus alimentarius, and Lacticaseibacillus paracasei. Correlation analysis indicated that LAB likely plays a significant role in shaping the aroma profile of zha-chili, with Levilactobacillus, Leuconostoc, Lactiplantibacillus, and Lactococcus showing correlation with E-nose sensory indices. However, these LAB were not significantly correlated with the taste properties of zha-chili. The study provides new insights into the influence of chili pepper and potato on the microbial diversity and flavor properties of zha-chili, and also presents potential LAB isolates for future research on zha-chili.

In this study, three lactic acid bacteria, namely, HBUAS51963T, HBUAS51964 and HBUAS51965, were isolated from Chinese rice wine starter sampled in Fangxian County, PR China. All were non-motile, non-spore-forming and Gram-positive spherical cells. Their taxonomic status was characterized using a polyphasic approach. Genome-based analysis revealed that all three strains were phylogenomically related to Weissella thailandensis KCTC 3751T and Weissella paramesenteroides ATCC 33313T. The digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) and average nucleotide identity (ANI) values between the three strains and the phylogenetically related type strains were less than 54.8 and 93.8â%, respectively, and thus, they were below the thresholds of dDDH and ANI for species definition. The genomic DNA G+C content was 38.6 molâ%. The predominant fatty acid methyl esters (>10â%) were C16â:â0, C19â:â0 cyc11 and summed feature 10 (C18â:â1 cyc11 and/or ECL 17.834). The polar lipids in the cells of strain HBUAS51963T were mainly phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, unidentified glycolipids, phospholipids and lipids. Finally, the three strains were capable of producing d-lactic acid (4.29 g l-1) and various organic acids such as tartaric, acetic, lactic and succinic acids. Overall, the results of genotypic, phenotypic and genomic analyses suggest that the three strains represent a new species of the genus Weissella, for which the name Weissella fangxianis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HBUAS51963T (=GDMCC 1.3506T= JCM 35803T).

The tight relationships between microbiome and traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)have been widely recognized. New technologies, results, and theories are emerging in the field of microbiomics in recent years with the advances in high-throughput sequencing and multi-omics technologies. Based on the previous research, the present study has proposed the concept of TCM microbiomics(TCMM), which is an interdisciplinary subject aiming at elucidating the functions and applications of microbiome in the areas of herb resources, herb processing, herb storage, and clinical effects by using modern technology of biology, ecology, and informatics. This subject essentially contains the structures, functions, interactions, molecular mechanisms, and application strategies of the microbiome associated with the quality, safety, and efficacy of TCM. Firstly, the development of the TCMM concept was summarized, with the profound understanding of TCMM on the complexity and entirety of microbiome being emphasized. Then, the research contents and applications of TCMM in promoting the sustainable development of herb resources, improving the standardization and diversification of herb fermentation, strengthening the safety of herb storage, and resolving the scientific connotation of theories and clinical efficacy of TCM are reviewed. Finally, the research strategies and methods of TCM microbiomics were elaborated from basic research, application research, and system research. TCMM is expected to promote the integrative development of TCM with frontier science and technology, thereby expanding the depth and scope of TCM study and facilitating TCM modernization.

With the development of industries, explosion accidents occur frequently during production, transportation, usage and storage of hazard chemicals. It remained challenging to efficiently treat the resultant wastewater. As an enhancement of traditional process, the activated carbon-activated sludge (AC-AS) process has a promising potential in treating wastewater with high concentrations of toxic compounds, chemical oxygen demand (COD) and ammonia nitrogen (NH4+-N), etc. In this paper, activated carbon (AC), activated sludge (AS) and AC-AS were used to treat the wastewater produced from an explosion accident in the Xiangshui Chemical Industrial Park. The removal efficiency was assessed by the removal performances of COD, dissolved organic carbon (DOC), NH4+-N, aniline and nitrobenzene. Increased removal efficiency and shortened treatment time were achieved in the AC-AS system. To achieve the same COD, DOC and aniline removal (90%), the AC-AS system saved 30, 38 and 58 h compared with the AS system, respectively. The enhancement mechanism of AC on the AS was explored by metagenomic analysis and three-dimensional excitation-emission-matrix spectra (3DEEMs). More organics, especially aromatic substances were removed in the AC-AS system. These results showed that the addition of AC promoted the microbial activity in pollutant degradation. Bacteria, such as Pyrinomonas, Acidobacteria and Nitrospira and genes, such as hao, pmoA-amoA, pmoB-amoB and pmoC-amoC, were found in the AC-AS reactor, which might have played important roles in the degradation of pollutants. To sum up, AC might have enhanced the growth of aerobic bacteria which further improved the removal efficiency via the combined effects of adsorption and biodegradation. The successful treatment of Xiangshui accident wastewater using the AC-AS demonstrated the potential universal characteristics of the process for the treatment of wastewater with high concentration of organic matter and toxicity. This study is expected to provide reference and guidance for the treatment of similar accident wastewaters.

Frequent impacts on the Moon have changed the physical and chemical properties of the lunar regolith, with new materials deposited from the impact-induced vapor phase. Here, we combined nanoscale chemical and structural analysis to identify the mineral digenite (4Cu2S·CuS) in Chang'e-5 lunar soil. This is the first report of digenite in a lunar sample. The surface-correlated digenite phase is undifferentiated in distribution and compositionally distinct from its hosts, suggesting that it originated from vapor-phase deposition. The presence of an Al-rich impact glass bead suggests that a thermal effect provided by impact ejecta is the main heat source for the evaporation of Cu-S components from a cupriferous troilite precursor, and the digenite condensed from these Cu-S vapors. A large pure metallic iron (Fe0) particle and high Cu content within the studied Cu-Fe-S grain suggest that this grain was most likely derived from a highly differentiated and reduced melt.
RESUMEN
The zha-chili isolate HBUAS62285T is a facultative anaerobic strain. This bacterium was gram-positive, but it could not generate catalase, was not motile, did not form spores, had no flagella, and produced gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Comparing of HBUAS62285T with its related type strains Levilactobacillus suantsaiihabitans BCRC 81129T, Levilactobacillus angrenensis M1530-1T, Levilactobacillus cerevisiae DSM 100836T, Levilactobacillus wangkuiensis 6-5(1)T, Levilactobacillus lanxiensis 13B17T, and Levilactobacillus mulengensis 112-3T showed that the similarity of 16S rRNA gene sequence was less than 99.13%. Strain HBUAS62285T has a G+C content of 50.57 mol%, an ANI value of less than 86.61%, an AAI value of less than 92.9%, and a dDDH value of less than 32.9% when compared to the aforementioned closely related strains. In the end, the most major fatty acids in cells were determined to be C16:0, C18:1 ω9c, C19:1 cyclo ω9,10c, and summed feature 10. Overall, the results of the phenotypic, genomic, chemotaxonomic, and phylogenetic studies indicate that strains HBUAS62285T and CD0817 constitute a new species within the genus Levilactobacillus, and the name Levilactobacillus yiduensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HBUAS62285T (= JCM 35804T = GDMCC 1.3507T).
