Corynebacterium uropygiale is a bacterium described in 2016 following thorough investigations using a polyphasic approach including MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, phylogeny of 16S rRNA and rpoB genes and DNA fingerprinting. To date, it has been regarded as endemic to preen gland secretions of healthy turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo).[1][2] It is a member of the genus Corynebacterium,[1] which belongs to the phylum Actinomycetota.[3] Although a large number of bacteria including corynebacteria have been reported as part of the normal microbiome of birds,[4][5][6][7][8] C. uropygiale is the only member of the genus that has been recovered in preen gland secretions of birds. It is one of three bacterial species to have been found to colonize preen gland secretions of birds.[1]
