A Gram-negative bacterium, designated strain Marseille-Q3452 T , was isolated from subgingival dental plaque of a subject suffering from dental plaque biofilm-induced gingivitis on an intact periodontium in Marseille, France. The strain was characterized by 16S rRNA and atpA gene sequence analysis an...
