Abstract

A novel cold-living, Gram-stain-negative, yellow-pigmented and obligately aerobic bacterium designated strain 0563 was isolated from the China No. 1 glacier. Phylogenetic analysis showed that strain 0563 was a member of the genus , sharing the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities with JCM 11473 (98.5 %) and NBRC 102679 (98.2 %). The genomic DNA G+C content was 34.8 mol%. Strain 0563 displayed the common phenotypic and chemotaxonomic features of the genus , containing menaquinone-6 (MK-6) as the major quinone and iso-C, iso-C 3-OH, summed feature 3 (comprising C 7 and/or C 6), C 6, iso-C G and iso-C 3-OH as the major fatty acids. On the basis of phenotypic characteristics, phylogenetic analysis and DNA–DNA relatedness data, the novel species p. nov. is proposed; the type strain is 0563 (=CGMCC 1.6847 =JCM 15087).
