Abstract

A novel, Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, non-spore-forming, short rod-shaped, aerobic bacterium designated H-12 was isolated from a mixed sandy soil sample collected from Xinjiang, China. Strain H-12 grew at 20–37 °C (optimum, 30 °C), pH 7.0–11.0 (optimum, pH 8.5) on TGY medium with 0–5 % NaCl (w/v). 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain H-12 shared sequence similarities with DSM 18850 (90.0 %). Strain H-12 showed a low level of DNA–DNA relatedness to DSM 18850 (45.5 %). The predominant isoprenoid quinone of strain H-12 was MK-7 and the major polar lipid was phosphatidylethanolamine. The predominant cellular fatty acids were Cω7 and/or Cω6, iso-C, iso-C 3-OH, C, C 3-OH and iso-C 3-OH. DNA G+C content of strain H-12 was 44.15 mol%. On the basis of phenotypic, genetic and phylogenetic data, strain H-12 is proposed to be a representative of a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is suggested and the type strain is H-12 ( = ACCC 05758 = KCTC 32294).
