Abstract

Two Gram-staining-negative, aerobic, non-spore-forming rod-shaped, non-motile bacteria, designated strains R156-2 and T58-2 were isolated from the roots of The colonies were yellow-pigmented. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, strains R156-2 and T58-2 were shown to be members of the genus . Strains R156-2 and T58-2 showed the greatest level of sequence similarity with (96.0–96.3 %). The major menaquinone was MK-7. The main cellular fatty acids were iso-C, Cω5 and iso-C 3-OH. Phenotypic and genotypic analyses indicated that strains R156-2 and T58-2 could not be assigned to any recognized species. Therefore, strains R156-2 and T58-2 represent a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is R156-2 ( = ACCC 05363 = KCTC 23738). The DNA G+C content of this strain is 51.9 mol%.
