sp. nov., isolated from arid soil Free

Abstract

A reddish-orange-pigmented, Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, facultatively methylotrophic strain, N4211, isolated from arid soil, collected from Abuja, Nigeria, was analysed by using a polyphasic approach. Phylogenetic analysis, based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, showed that strain N4211 belonged to the genus . Strain N4211 was most closely related to GR16 (98.56 %), PMB02 (97.95 %) and GR3 (97.2 %), and the phylogenetic similarities to all other species of the genus with validly published names were less than 97.0 %. The major ubiquinones detected were Q-10. The major fatty acids were summed feature 7 (C 11/t9/t6). The DNA G+C content was 67.3 mol%. DNA–DNA relatedness of strain N4211 and the most closely related strains DSM 16371 and KCTC 12901 were 60.0 and 48.2 %, respectively. On the basis of phenotypic, phylogenetic and DNA–DNA hybridization data, strain N4211 is assigned to a novel species of the genus for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is N4211( = KCTC 23615 = DSM 25844).
