sp. nov., a spore-forming, mesophilic, sulfate-reducing bacterium isolated from a deep clay environment Free

Abstract

A novel anaerobic, Gram-positive, spore-forming, curved rod-shaped, mesophilic and sulfate-reducing bacterium was isolated from pore water collected in a borehole at −490 m in Bure (France). This strain, designated BSREI1, grew at temperatures between 5 °C and 30 °C (optimum 25 °C) and at a pH between 6 and 8 (optimum 7). It did not require NaCl for growth, but tolerated it up to 1.5 % NaCl. Sulfate, thiosulfate and elemental sulfur were used as terminal electron acceptors. Strain BSREI1 used crotonate, formate, lactate, pyruvate, fructose, glycerol and yeast extract as electron donors in the presence of sulfate. The sole quinone was MK-7. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 43.3 mol%. Strain BSREI1 had the type strains of (16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 96.83 %), (96.31 %) and (96.16 %) as its closest phylogenetic relatives. On the basis of phylogenetic and physiological properties, strain BSREI1 is proposed as a representative of a novel species of the genus , sp. nov.; the type strain is BSREI1 ( = DSM 24089 = JCM 17380).
