gen. nov., sp. nov., a polysaccharide-degrading member of the family isolated from seawater, and emended description of the genus Free

Abstract

A Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, aerobic, non-flagellated, non-gliding rod, designated YCS-9, was isolated from seawater in the South Sea, South Korea. Strain YCS-9 grew optimally at 25 °C, at pH 7.0–8.0 and in the presence of 2 % (w/v) NaCl. In the neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, strain YCS-9 fell within the family and formed a cluster with MTT-39 with a bootstrap resampling value of 75.4 %. Strain YCS-9 showed 92.3 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to MTT-39 and 89.0–93.7 % sequence similarity to the other strains used in the phylogenetic analysis. Strain YCS-9 contained MK-6 as the only menaquinone and iso-C G, iso-C and iso-C 3-OH as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipids were one unidentified lipid and one unidentified aminolipid. The DNA G+C content was 34.2 mol%. Strain YCS-9 could be differentiated from NBRC 102624 by differences in fatty acid composition, polar lipid profile and some phenotypic properties. On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data, strain YCS-9 represents a novel species in a new genus within the phylum , for which the name gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of is YCS-9 ( = KCTC 23884  = CCUG 62114). An emended description of the genus is also presented.
