sp. nov., isolated from wetland bank-side soil Free

Abstract

A novel Gram-staining-negative, non-motile and rod-shaped bacterial strain containing flexirubin-type pigments, designated S31, was isolated from bank-side soil of the Xixi wetland in Zhejiang province, China. Growth occurred at 10–37 °C (optimum, 32 °C), pH 6–8 (optimum, pH 7) and with 0–2 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 1 %). Strain S31 shared highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities with H1 (96.2 %) and DW3 (96.4 %). Phylogenetic analysis suggested that strain S31 was a member of the genus . The dominant respiratory quinone was MK-6 and the DNA G+C content was 33.3 mol%. The major fatty acids were iso-C, summed feature 3 (iso-C 2-OH and/or Cω7) and anteiso-C. The major polar lipids of strain S31 were phosphatidylethanolamine, three unidentified aminolipids and four unidentified polar lipids. Based on its phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics and phylogenetic data, strain S31 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. (type strain S31 = CGMCC 1.12802 = NBRC 110387) is proposed.
