AB Phylogenetic relationships between species in the genus Photobacterium have beenpoorly studied despite pathogenic and ecological relevance of some of its members. This is thefirst phylogenetic study that includes new species of Photobacterium (validated or not) that havenot been included in any of the previously described clades, using 16S rRNA sequences andmultilocus sequence analysis (MLSA) in concatenated sequences of gyrB, gapA, topA, ftsZ andmreB housekeeping genes. Sequence analysis has been implemented using Maximum-parsimony(MP), Neighbour-joining (NJ) and Maximum likelihood (ML) treeing methods and the predictedevolutionary relationship between the Photobacterium clades was established on the basis of bootstrapvalues of >75% for 16S rRNA sequences and MLSA. We have grouped 22 species of the genusPhotobacterium into the following 5 clades: Phosphoreum (comprises P. aquimaris, “P. carnosum,”P. iliopiscarium, P. kishitanii, P. phosphoreum, “P. piscicola” and “P. toruni”); clade Profundum (composedof P. aestuarii, P. alginatilyticum, P. frigidiphilum, P. indicum, P. jeanii, P. lipolyticum, “P. marinum,” andP. profundum); clade Damselae (two subspecies of P. damselae, damselae and piscicida); and two newclades: clade Ganghwense (includes P. aphoticum, P. aquae, P. galatheae, P. ganghwense, P. halotolerans,P. panuliri and P. proteolyticum); and clade Leiognathi (composed by P. angustum, P. leiognathi subsp.leiognathi and “P. leiognathi subsp. mandapamensis”). Two additional clades, Rosenbergii and Swingsii,were formed using a phylogenetic method based on 16S rRNA gene, although they are not confirmedby any MLSA methods. Only P. aplysiae could not be included in none of the established clade,constituting an orphan clade.
