The cells were Gram-positive, aerobic or facultatively anaerobic, non-motile straight rods. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that this strain belongs to the genus Cellulomonas and that it is most closely related to Cellulomonas xylanilytica LMG 21723T and Cellulomonas humilata ATCC 25174T (98·0 and 97·9 % similarity, respectively). Chemotaxonomic data also supported the classification of strain DB5T in the genus Cellulomonas, i.e. l-ornithine as the cell-wall diamino acid, anteiso-C15 : 0 and iso-C15 : 0 as the major fatty acids, MK-9(H4) as the predominant menaquinone and the presence of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol mannosides in the polar lipid profile. The results of DNA–DNA hybridization in combination with chemotaxonomic and physiological data demonstrated that strain DB5T (=KCTC 19081T=NBRC 100819T) should be classified as the type strain of a novel species within the genus Cellulomonas, for which the name Cellulomonas terrae sp. nov. is proposed.", }
