Abstract

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, non-spore-forming bacterial strain, BDR-9, was isolated from soil collected from Boryung on the west coast of the Korean peninsula, and its taxonomic position was investigated by using a polyphasic study. Strain BDR-9 grew optimally at 25 °C, at pH 6.0–7.5 and in the absence of NaCl. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain BDR-9 fell within the clade comprising species of the genus within the phylum . 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values between strain BDR-9 and the type strains of species of the genus were in the range 94.0–95.6 %. Strain BDR-9 contained MK-7 as the predominant menaquinone and iso-C and Cω7 and/or iso-C 2-OH as the major fatty acids. The DNA G+C content was 44.3 mol%. Differential phenotypic properties and phylogenetic distinctiveness of strain BDR-9 demonstrated that this strain is distinguishable from species of the genus . On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data, strain BDR-9 is considered to represent a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is BDR-9 ( = KCTC 23157  = CCUG 59599).
