Abstract

A Gram-negative, aerobic, copper-resistant bacterium, designated strain CU4, was isolated from copper mine soil in Daye, China. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed highest similarity to CC-FH12-1 (98.4 %), followed by Sp+ (97.2 %), UT26 (97.1 %), NBRC 16140 (97.0 %), DSM 6383 (96.9 %) and DSM 7462 (95.5 %). The major fatty acids (>5 %) were summed feature 7 (Cω7, Cω9 and/or Cω12), summed feature 4 (Cω7 and/or iso-C 2-OH), C and C 2-OH, and the predominant quinone was ubiquinone Q-10. Spermidine was the major polyamine component. The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, sphingoglycolipid, phosphatidyldimethylethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain CU4 was 64.9 mol%. Comparison of DNA–DNA hybridization, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics between strain CU4 and phylogenetically related strains revealed that the new isolate represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CU4 ( = KCTC 23865 = CCTCC AB 2011146). An emended description of the genus is also proposed.
