Abstract

A novel bacterial strain, NH131, was isolated from deep-sea sediment of South China Sea. Cells were strictly aerobic, Gram-stain negative, short rod-shaped and motile with a single lateral flagellum. Strain NH131 grew optimally at pH 6.5–7.0 and 25–30 °C. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain NH131 belonged to the genus , sharing the highest sequence similarity with the type strain, BD-c194 (96.2 %). The predominant fatty acids were Cω7, 11-methyl Cω7, C and C. Ubiquinone 10 was the predominant ubiquinone. The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phospholipid, three glycolipids and two unknown lipids. The DNA G+C content of strain NH131 was 63.0 mol%. On the basis of the results of polyphasic identification, it is suggested that strain NH131 represents a novel species of the genus for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NH131 ( = JCM 19305 = KCTC 32437).
