sp. nov., isolated from Arctic tundra soil, and emended description of the genus Free

Abstract

A yellow-pigmented, Gram-reaction-negative, non-motile, aerobic bacterium, designated DR4-30, was isolated from tundra soil near Ny-Ålesund, Svalbard Archipelago, Norway (78° 58′ N 12° 03′ E). Growth occurred at 4–28 °C (optimum 20–25 °C) and at pH 7–8 (optimum pH 7). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain DR4-30 belongs to the genus in the family . The 16S rRNA gene sequence of this strain showed 95.4 and 94.7 % sequence similarity to those of A4T-83 and A5J-41-2, respectively. The major respiratory quinones were MK-9 and MK-10; the predominant cellular fatty acids were summed feature 3 (Cω7 and/or Cω6; 20.7 %), iso-C (20.3 %), C (10.7 %), C (8.0 %) and C (6.6 %). The DNA G+C content was 57.3 mol%. On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data, strain DR4-30 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DR4-30 ( = CCTCC AB 2010415  = NRRL B-59669). An emended description of the genus is also provided.
