sp. nov., isolated from an alkaline soil, and emended description of the genus Free

Abstract

Strain JC141 was isolated from an alkaline soil (pH 8.8) at Mau, Uttar Pradesh, India. Colonies were blue with a metallic sheen; cells stained Gram-negative, and were oxidase- and catalase-positive, but chitinase-negative. Major fatty acids were Cω7/Cω6, C and C with minor amounts of C, C 3-OH, C, C and Cω7. Strain JC141 contained phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol as major polar lipids, with minor amounts of diphosphatidylglycerol, unidentified aminolipids (AL1–3) and unidentified lipids (L1–4). A bacterial hopane derivative (BHD1) was the major hopanoid. Genomic DNA G+C content was 62.5 mol%. 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons indicated that strain JC141 represents a member of the genus within the family of the class . Strain JC141 had a 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 98 % with ATCC 19706 and <96.5 % with other members of the genus . However, strain JC141 showed 45.8 % relatedness (based on DNA–DNA hybridization) with LMG 6867 ( = ATCC 19706). Distinct morphological, physiological and genotypic differences from previously described taxa support the classification of strain JC141 as a representative of a novel species in the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is JC141 ( = KCTC 32041 = LMG 27066). An emended description of the genus is also proposed.
