Abstract

A Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped bacterial strain, JN53, was isolated from the surfaces of weathered rock (potassic trachyte) from Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, PR China. Strain JN53 grew optimally at 30 °C, pH 7.0. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain JN53 belonged to the genus in the family . It was most closely related to KP01 (97.3 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), YC6729 (96.3 %). Strain JN53 contained MK-7 as the major menaquinone and homospermidine as the major polyamine. The main fatty acids of strain JN53 were iso-C, Cω5, Cω7 and/or Cω6 (summed feature 3), iso-C 3-OH, C, iso-C 3-OH and C 3-OH. The polar lipid profile contained phosphatidylethanolamine, unknown aminolipids and unknown lipids. The total DNA G+C content of strain JN53 was 49.7 mol%. The low level of DNA–DNA relatedness to other species of the genus and the many phenotypic properties that distinguished strain JN53 from recognized species of this genus demonstrated that isolate JN53 should be classified as representing a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is JN53 ( = CCTCC AB 2013166 = JCM 19354).
