The test strain showed highest sequence similarities to Burkholderia tropica LMG 22274T (97.6 %), Burkholderia acidipaludis NBRC 101816T (97.5 %), Burkholderia tuberum LMG 21444T (97.5 %), Burkholderia sprentiae LMG 27175T (97.4 %), Burkholderia terricola LMG 20594T (97.3 %) and Burkholderia diazotrophica LMG 26031T (97.1 %). Based on average nucleotide identity (ANI) values, the new isolate represents a novel genomic species as it shows less than 90 % ANI values with other closely related species. Also, other phylosiological and biochemical comparisons allowed the phenotypic differentiation of strain JC2948T from other members of the genus Burkholderia . Therefore, we suggest that this strain should be classified as the type strain of a novel species of the genus Burkholderia . The name Burkholderia monticola sp. nov. (type strain, JC2948T = JCM 19904T = KACC 17924T) is proposed.", }
