sp. nov., a zeaxanthin-producing bacterium of the family isolated from marine sediment Free

Abstract

A Gram-staining-negative, yellow-pigmented, strictly aerobic, zeaxanthin-producing, rod-shaped, non-endospore-forming, appendaged bacterial strain that exhibits gliding motility, designated CC-AMSZ-T, was isolated from marine sediment off coastal Kending, Taiwan. Strain CC-AMSZ-T shared 94.9 % and 96.7–94.1 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities with KMM 6050 and other species of the genus , respectively, and formed a distinct phyletic lineage in phylogenetic trees. The major (≥5 % of the total) fatty acids were C, iso-C, anteiso-C, Cω6 and/or Cω7 and iso-Cω9 and/or C 10-methyl. Phosphatidylethanolamine, six unidentified lipids and three unidentified aminolipids were the polar lipid components. The DNA G+C content was 38.6 mol%. The predominant respiratory quinone was menaquinone-6 (MK-6). Based on the phylogenetic distinctiveness and distinguishing phenotypic characteristics, strain CC-AMSZ-T represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CC-AMSZ-T ( = JCM 18809 = BCRC 80547).
