Abstract

An aerobic, Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped bacterium (strain CC-ALB-1) was isolated from the rhizosphere of . Strain CC-ALB-1 was able to grow at 20–30 °C, pH 5.0–8.0 and with up to 1.0 % (w/v) NaCl. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain CC-ALB-1 had the highest sequence similarity to Gsoil 040 (96.9 %) and JS16-4 (96.7 %); lower levels of similarity (<97.0 %) were observed to strains of all other species of the genus . The fatty acid profile consisted of iso-C, iso-C 3-OH, Cω5, Cω5 and summed feature 3 (Cω7 and/or Cω6). The polar lipid profile contained phosphatidylethanolamine, two unidentified aminolipids and five unidentified lipids. The predominant quinone system was menaquinone 7 (MK-7). The DNA G+C content was 53.4±0.4 mol%. Based on its phylogenetic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic features, strain CC-ALB-1 is proposed to represent a novel species within the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CC-ALB-1 ( = BCRC 80570 = JCM 18895).
