Taxonomic analysis of the genus ''Prevotella'' lists B14 as the ''Segatella bryantii'' type strain [6]. However, NCBI now records B14 and C21a as belonging to the species ''Segatella baroniae'', although the reason for this is unclear.

Introduction

Segatella bryantii B14

Segatella bryantii B14 (DSM 11371), formerly Prevotella bryantii, was isolated from rumen contents of a Holstein cow fed alfalfa hay in the USA [1]. It was originally named as Bacteroides ruminicola subsp. brevis and subsequently changed to Prevotella bryantii [2]. The strain was originally designated B14 but B14 is commonly used. B14 has been the focus of many studies and is able to ferment a wide range of carbohydrates [3, 4]. The genes involved in xylan degradation have been characterized [5].

Taxonomic analysis of the genus Prevotella lists B14 as the Segatella bryantii type strain [6]. However, NCBI now records B14 and C21a as belonging to the species Segatella baroniae, although the reason for this is unclear.

Draft genome sequences are available for B14 (3.6 Mb) [7]. Resequencing indicates that Segatella bryantii strains (B14 and C21a) each have two replicons of ~2.5 and ~1.0 Mb. Two other sequenced P. bryantii cultures (TC1-1, TS1-5) have a similar genomic architecture suggesting this is a feature of this species.

The B14 genome encodes a large conjugative transposon [8] although this has not been characterized in detail or shown to be transferable. Based on the presence of a the traG gene (TIGR03783) large conjugative transposons may be encoded by other rumen Prevotella strains.

Culturing Conditions

Prevotella bryantii B14 grows well in M2GSC or M2G medium at 37 °C under strictly anaerobic conditions. Cells can be grown overnight in either medium. B14 can also be grown on M10G agar plates, with colonies typically appearing after 36–72 h of incubation. Cultures and agar plates are maintained in an anaerobic chamber containing 95% CO2 and 5% H2.
