Abstract

A Gram-staining-negative, strictly aerobic, non-motile, yellow-pigmented bacterium, designated strain M091, was isolated from seawater at Damupo beach in Pohang, Republic of Korea, and investigated using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The novel strain grew optimally at 25 °C, pH 7.0–8.0, and in the presence of 3 % (w/v) NaCl. In a phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, strain M091 formed a lineage within the family that was distinct from the most closely related genera of (95.1 % sequence similarity), (94.9–93.9 %), (94.8–94.2 %), (94.8–93.2 %), (94.7–93.8 %) and (94.7–92.9 %). The polar lipid profile of the novel strain comprised phosphatidylethanolamine, two unidentified aminolipids, one unidentified phospholipid and seven unidentified lipids. The predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C (20.5 %), iso-C 3-OH (15.4 %), iso-C 3-OH (12.4 %), C (10.9 %) and iso-C G (9.9 %). The genomic DNA G+C content of strain M091 was 34.4 mol% and the major respiratory quinone was MK-6. Based on phenotypic and genotypic data, strain M091 represents a new genus and novel species in the family , for which the name gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of the type species is M091 ( = KCTC 23537 = JCM 17630).
