Description of sp. nov., reclassification of as comb. nov. and emended description of the genus Thompson 2002 Free

Abstract

Eleven strains of halophilic, facultative anaerobes isolated from healthy and diseased and (bony fishes) cultured in Spanish Mediterranean fisheries have been studied by a polyphasic approach that included a wide phenotypic characterization, DNA–DNA hybridization and phylogenetic analysis using 16S rRNA, and gene sequences. All strains were phylogenetically related to species and . On the basis of sequence analysis and DNA–DNA hybridization data, eight of the strains were identified as . The remaining three strains formed a tight, independent clade in all sequence analyses and showed less than 70 % DNA–DNA hybridization with strains of the closest species, from which they could be differentiated by several phenotypic traits. We conclude that these three strains represent a novel species in the genus and we thus propose the name sp. nov., with strain DAl 1-1-5 (=CECT 7320 =CAIM 661) as the type strain. In addition, we propose the reclassification of Denner 2002 as comb. nov. (type strain RE35/F12 =CIP 107077 =DSM 14347 =CECT 7414) and we provide an emended description of the genus .
