sp. nov., isolated from soil Free

Abstract

A bacterial strain, designated GAU11, was isolated from soil in Japan. Cells of the strain were Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile rods. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain GAU11 showed high similarity to those of BF-3 (98.8 %), CC21 (96.4 %), R-24608 (96.2 %), K601 (96.2 %), TBEA3 (95.9 %) and LMG 1253 (95.9 %). Strain GAU11 contained ubiquinone 8 as the sole ubiquinone and diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol as major polar lipids. Its major cellular fatty acids were C, Cω7 and summed feature 3 (Cω7 and/or iso-C 2-OH). The DNA G+C content of strain GAU11 was 68.2 mol%. The DNA–DNA relatedness between strain GAU11 and DSM 22523 was 52 or 68 % (reciprocal value). Phenotypic characterization indicated that strain GAU11 represents a member of the genus , but at the same time distinguished it from DSM 22523. From polyphasic characterization, this strain should be classified as representing a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. (type strain GAU11 = JCM 19903 = DSM 28451) is proposed.
