Cells of strain C3T were Gram-stain-negative rods, 0.3–0.4 µm in diameter and 1.0–2.6 µm in length. Strain C3T was strictly aerobic. Growth occurred at 15–37 °C but not at 4 or 42 °C, at pH 5.0–9.0 (optimum pH 6.0–7.0) and in the presence of 0–8 g NaCl l−1 (optimum 0–1 g l−1). The analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain C3T was phylogenetically related to members of the genus Undibacterium , with similarities ranging from 94.7 to 96.5 %. Strain C3T contained ubiquinone 8 as the major respiratory quinone. The major cellular fatty acids were summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c/C16 : 1ω6c), C17 : 0 cyclo, straight-chain C16 : 0, C12 : 0 and C10 : 0, unsaturated C18 : 1ω7c and hydroxylated fatty acids C10 : 0 3-OH and C12 : 0 2-OH. The polar lipids were mainly phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylglycerol. The polyamines were putrescine and 2-hydroxyputrescine. The DNA G+C content was 57.4 mol% (determined from Tm ). Based on these results, it is concluded that strain C3T represents a novel species of the genus Undibacterium , for which the name Undibacterium terreum sp. nov. is proposed, with C3T ( = CGMCC 1.10998T = NBRC 108789T) representing the type strain.", }
