Abstract

A Gram-staining-negative, rod-shaped, gliding and pale-pink-pigmented bacterium, designated strain ZLM-10, was isolated from a soil sample collected from an arid area in Xinjiang province, China, and characterized in a taxonomic study using a polyphasic approach. The novel strain grew optimally at 30–37 °C and in the presence of 2 % (w/v) sea salts. The only respiratory quinone detected was MK-7 and the major cellular fatty acids were summed feature 3 (iso-C 2-OH and/or Cω7), iso-C and iso-C 3-OH. The polar lipids consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminolipid and two unidentified aminophospholipids. The DNA GC content was 45.4 mol%. Flexirubin-type pigments were not produced. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain ZLM-10 was a member of the phylum and appeared most closely related to 311 (90.2 % sequence similarity), LMG 13021 (89.2 %), AMV16 (89.1 %) and DSM 4126 (89.1 %). On the basis of phenotypic and genotypic data and phylogenetic inference, strain ZLM-10 should be classified as a novel species of a new genus in the family , for which the name gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of the type species is ZLM-10 ( = CCTCC AB 208222 = KCTC 23983).
