Abstract

A Gram-negative, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming and nitrogen-fixing bacterium, designated ICB 89, was isolated from stems of a Brazilian sugar cane variety widely used in organic farming. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain ICB 89 belonged to the genus and was most closely related to LMG 958, LMG 22075, L2, [] ATCC 19374, [] ATCC 19867 and [] ATCC 19861. DNA–DNA hybridization together with chemotaxonomic data and biochemical characteristics allowed the differentiation of strain ICB 89 from its nearest phylogenetic neighbours. Therefore, strain ICB 89 represents a novel species, for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is ICB 89 ( = CBMAI 564  = LMG 25348).
