Comparative genomic analyses of the clinically-derived Winkia strain NY0527: the reassignment of W. neuii subsp. neuii and W. neuii subsp. antitratus into two separate species and insights into their virulence characteristics

BackgroundWinkia neuii, previously known as Actinomyces neuii, is increasingly recognized as a causative agent of various human infections, while its taxonomy and genomic insights are still understudied.MethodsA Winkia strain NY0527 was isolated from the hip abscess of a patient, and its antibiotic...
