Abstract

Two bacterial strains, designated JS4-4 and SHS5-24, were isolated from forest soil of Jeju Island and fresh water of Seoho lake in Suwon city, respectively, South Korea. Both strains were Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, motile rods. Strains JS4-4 and SHS5-24 showed high sequence similarities (97.6–95.8 %) and (96.5–95.6 %), respectively, to the members of the genus . The sequence similarity between strains JS4-4 and SHS5-24 was 97.0 %. A phylogenetic tree showed that these strains fell within the radius of the genus . The main fatty acids of strains JS4-4 and SHS5-24 were summed feature 3 (Cω7 and/or Cω6) (50.1 and 58.7 %, respectively) and C (28.3 and 24.5 %, respectively). Both strains had ubiquinone 8 as the only respiratory quinone, and phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol as the major polar lipids. Strain JS4-4 showed <70 % DNA–DNA hybridization with members of the genus . Thus, based on the evidence of a polyphasic study, it is proposed that strains JS4-4 and SHS5-24 represent two novel species, for which the names sp. nov. (type strain JS4-4 = KACC 12607 = NBRC 108922) and sp. nov. (type strain SHS5-24 = KACC 16656 = NBRC 108929) are proposed.
