Abstract

A novel bacterial strain designated CJ70 was isolated from tidal flat sediment in Korea. A polyphasic approach was used to identify this strain taxonomically. The isolate was Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, yellow-pigmented, rod-shaped and non-motile. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain CJ70 was related most closely to JLT832 with 95.7 % similarity and formed an independent phyletic line from recognized species of the genus , comprising a clade with , which is the only recognized species of the genus . The predominant cellular fatty acids of strain CJ70 were Cω7 (60.0 %), C (21.2 %) and C 2-OH (5.8 %). The major isoprenoid quinone was ubiquinone-10. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 61.4 mol%. The results obtained from this study suggested that strain CJ70 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CJ70 ( = KACC 16559 = JCM 18079).
