Abstract

A yellow, rod-shaped, Gram-negative, facultatively aerobic, gliding bacterium, designed strain P7-3-5, was isolated from intertidal sand of the Yellow Sea, China. Analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain P7-3-5 formed a distinct lineage within the family , sharing 94.2–96.9 % sequence similarity with type strains of species of the most closely related genera, including , , and . The strain grew at 4–40 °C and with 0.5–5.0 % (w/v) NaCl. It reduced nitrate to nitrite and hydrolysed gelatin and DNA. The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C, iso-C G and anteiso-C and the major respiratory quinone was MK-6. Polar lipids included phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), three unidentified aminolipids (AL1–3) and four unidentified lipids (L1–4). The genomic DNA G+C content of strain P7-3-5 was 32.1 mol%. Data from this polyphasic study suggest that strain P7-3-5 represents a novel species in a new genus in the family , for which the name gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of is P7-3-5 ( = CGMCC 1.12213 = KACC 16457).
