A bacterial strain designated RLAHU4BT was isolated from root nodules of Lupinus albus in León (Spain). The 16S rRNA gene sequence of this strain showed similarities lower than 97 % with respect to species of the genus Cohnella . The strain was a Gram-variable, sporulating rod, motile by means of peritrichous flagella, and facultatively anaerobic. It was positive for oxidase, catalase and β-galactosidase production but negative for urease, amylase and gelatinase. Strain RLAHU4BT grew in the presence of 5 % NaCl. MK-7 was the predominant menaquinone and meso-diaminopimelic acid was present in the peptidoglycan. anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0, iso-C15 : 0 and C16 : 0 were the major fatty acids. Major polar lipids of strain RLAHU4BT were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, three unknown phospholipids, two unknown aminophospholipids and one unknown lipid. The DNA G+C content was 57.8 mol%. Strain RLAHU4BT presented phenotypic differences from all recognized species of the genus Cohnella . The phylogenetic, chemotaxonomic and phenotypic data indicated that strain RLAHU4BT belongs to a novel species of the genus Cohnella , for which the name Cohnella lupini sp. nov. is proposed, with strain RLAHU4BT ( = LMG 27416T = CECT 8236T) as the type strain.
