sp. nov., isolated from drinking water Free

Abstract

A Gram-negative, motile, rod-shaped organism, strain AP13, able to produce yellow-pigmented colonies, was isolated from the drinking water distribution system of Seville (Spain) and was characterized by using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. In 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons, strain AP13 exhibited 96.9–95.6 % similarity with respect to the five recognized species of the genus . The DNA G+C content of strain AP13 was 66.0 mol%, a value that supports the affiliation of strain AP13 to the genus . DNA–DNA hybridization data and phenotypic properties confirmed that strain AP13 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is AP13 (=CECT 7142=CCM 7363=DSM 18055=JCM 13879).
