Abstract

A novel Gram-negative, rod-shaped, motile, non-spore-forming bacterial strain, CMS, isolated from soil was characterized using phenotypic and molecular taxonomic methods. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that the organism belongs phylogenetically to the genus . , and were the most closely related species, with 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities to the respective type strains of 99.79, 99.73 and 99.59 %. Relatively low gene sequence similarities (<90 %) and DNA–DNA reassociation values (<51 %) were obtained between the strain and its phylogenetically closest neighbours. The G+C content of strain CMS was 62.7 mol%. The major cellular fatty acids were C 7, summed feature 3 (C 7 and/or iso-C 2-OH), C and C 3-OH. Based on the phenotypic and genetic evidence, the strain is suggested to represent a novel species, for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CMS (=BCRC 17751 =DSM 21245).
