gen. nov., sp. nov., a member of the family Free

Abstract

A novel strain, named S4, was obtained from industrial wastewater in Xiaoshan, Zhejiang Province, China. Cells were Gram-negative, neutrophilic and non-spore-forming and moved by means of a polar flagellum. Normal cells were 0.8–0.9×1.3–1.9 µm and the cells elongated to 10–25 µm when cultivated at high temperatures. Strain S4 grew at 15–50 °C (optimum at 48 °C), pH 5.5–8.5 (optimum 7.0–7.5) and 0–2 % (optimum 0.5 %) (w/v) NaCl. Ubiquinone-8 was the predominant respiratory quinone. C, summed feature 3 (Cω7 and/or iso-C 2-OH) and C cyclo were the major cellular fatty acids. The major 3-OH fatty acid was C 3-OH. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol and an unknown aminoglycolipid. The genomic DNA G+C content was 68.8 mol%. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequences alignment, the most closely related strains were members of the genera (94.6–95.6 % similarities), (94.9–95.6 %), (94.8–95.4 %), (94.1–95.2 %) and (95.1 %). Phylogenetic analysis showed the closest relatives of strain S4 were members of the genus . Based on phenotypic and phylogenetic characteristics, we suggest that strain S4 represents a novel species of a new genus of the family , for which the name gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of is S4 ( = CGMCC 1.10977 = JCM 17803).
