sp. nov., isolated from a tidal flat, and emended description of Free

Abstract

A Gram-staining-negative, yellow-pigmented, strictly aerobic bacterial strain motile by gliding, designated BS12, was isolated from a tidal flat at Boseong, Korea. Cells were moderately halotolerant, catalase- and oxidase-positive rods. Growth was observed at 5–40 °C (optimum, 25 °C), at pH 5.5–9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0–7.5) and in the presence of 1–11 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 2–4 %). The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C, iso-C 3-OH, iso-Cω9 and anteiso-C. The polar lipid pattern comprised phosphatidylethanolamine, four unidentified aminolipids and three unidentified lipids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 42.3 mol% and the only respiratory quinone was menaquinone 6. Phylogenetic inference based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain BS12 formed a tight phyletic lineage with members of the genus . Strain BS12 was most closely related to ‘ ’ HMD3159 with sequence similarity of 97.5 %, but the DNA–DNA relatedness value between the two strains was only 22.1±2.2 %. On the basis of phenotypic and molecular features, strain BS12 was shown to represent a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is BS12 ( = KACC 16188 = JCM 17790). An emended description of is also proposed.
