Growth occurred in the temperature range of 10–37 °C (optimum 28–30 °C) and at pH 5.0–9.0 (optimum pH 7.0). It can tolerate up to 3 % (w/v) NaCl. The strain showed 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity levels of 95.1–97.0 % with species of the genus Leifsonia , 95.7–96.7 % with species of the genus Herbiconiux , 95.1–96.4 % with species of the genus Salinibacterium and 96.1 % with Labedella gwakjiensis and Homoserinimonas aerilata . The highest sequence similarities (97.0 %) were with Leifsonia aquatica JCM 1368T, Leifsonia poae VKM Ac-1401T and Leifsonia psychrotolerans LI1T. The peptidoglycan type determined for strain 5GHs34-4T was B2γ with dl-2,4-diaminobutyric acid at position 3. The murein was of the acetyl type. The polar lipids consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and two unknown glycolipids. The menaquinones detected were MK-13, MK-12 and MK-14, and the major fatty acids were summed feature 8 (C18 : 1ω7c and/or C18 : 1ω6c), anteiso-C17 : 0 and anteiso-C15 : 0. The phenotypic and phylogenetic traits of strain 5GHs34-4T differed in some respects from those of members of the family Microbacteriaceae . Therefore, strain 5GHs34-4T is considered to represent a novel species of a new genus in the family Microbacteriaceae , for which the name Rudaibacter terrae gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 5GHs34-4T ( = KACC 15523T = NBRC 108754T).", }
