Abstract

A Gram-negative bacterium, designated DCY13, was isolated from soil of a ginseng field in South Korea. Comparative analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain DCY13 shared the highest sequence similarity (95.0 %) with NBRC 103935 and 87.6–91.4 % sequence similarity with other members of the family . Cells were non-spore-forming rods, catalase- and oxidase-positive, motile by gliding and facultatively anaerobic. The only respiratory quinone was menaquinone 7 (MK-7) and the major fatty acids were iso-C 3-OH, iso-C and iso-C G. The GC content of the genomic DNA was 47.5±1.0 mol%. In addition to phosphatidylethanolamine, the major polar lipids were two unidentified aminophospholipids, one unidentified aminolipid and three unidentified polar lipids. The major cell-wall sugars were ribose, xylose and galactose. It is proposed that strain DCY13 represents a novel species in the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DCY13 ( = KCTC 12833  = JCM 15794  = DSM 22335). Emended descriptions of the genus and of are also proposed.
