Abstract

A yellow-pigmented, Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, rod-shaped, round-ended bacterium, designated strain 18-11HK, was isolated from a phosphate mine situated in the suburb of Kunming in Yunnan province in south-western China. The taxonomic status of this strain was evaluated by using a polyphasic approach. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, strain 18-11HK was shown to belong to the genus , showing the highest levels of sequence similarity with respect to ‘’ FW-6 (97.2 %), DSM 12447 (96.7 %), DSM 12444 (96.7 %) and DSM 16702 (96.3 %). Strain 18-11HK had a genomic DNA G+C content of 65.3 mol% and Q-10 as the predominant respiratory quinone. DNA–DNA hybridizations of strain 18-11HK with DSM 12447, DSM 12444 and DSM 16702 showed low relatedness values of 29.6, 33.5 and 32.3 %, respectively. The predominant fatty acids of strain 18-11HK were summed feature 8 (Cω7 and/or Cω6), summed feature 3 (Cω7 and/or Cω6) and C, and the major 2-hydroxy fatty acid was C 2-OH. The polar lipid profile revealed the presence of sphingoglycolipid, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine and some unidentified lipids. On the basis of its phenotypic properties and phylogenetic distinctiveness, strain 18-11HK represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 18-11HK ( = CGMCC 1.12274 = DSM 25975).
