Abstract

A Gram-stain-negative bacterium, strain 5410S-62, was isolated from an air sample collected in Suwon, Republic of Korea. It was aerobic, motile, mesophilic and formed rod-shaped cells. Colonies on R2A agar were convex, circular and pale orange with entire margins. Growth occurred at pH 5–9 (optimally at pH 7) and at 10–40 °C (optimally at 28 °C). It did not grow in the presence of 1 % NaCl. Comparative analyses of 16S rRNA gene sequences demonstrated that the novel strain was closely related to members of the genus . Strain 5410S-62 showed the highest sequence similarity (98.2 %) to A2-57. It also showed high 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (98.1–95.6 %) to members of the genus (98.1 % to SUEMI08, 97.8 % to SUEMI10 and SUEMI03, 97.6 % to PB1 and 95.6 % to CC-AFH3). The strain contained summed feature 3 (Cω6 and/or Cω7), C and summed feature 8 (Cω6 and/or Cω7) as major fatty acids, Q-8 as the only ubiquinone and large amounts of phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylglycerol. Strain 5410S-62 revealed less than 70 % DNA–DNA relatedness with the type strains of closely related species of the genera and and . Based on the physiological, biochemical and chemotaxonomic data obtained in this study, it is proposed that strain 5410S-62 represents a novel species, sp. nov., with 5410S-62 ( = KACC 16657 =  NBRC 108944) as the type strain.
