Abstract

Bacterial strain K718a (T = type strain), which was isolated from the packing material of a biofilter used for deodorization of animal-rendering plant emissions, was subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study in which physiological, chemotaxonomic, and genomic methods were used. On the basis of the chemotaxonomic and physiological properties found and the results of 16S ribosomal DNA sequence comparisons, it was evident that strain K718a belongs to a new species in the genus We propose that strain K718a should be the type strain of the new species
