sp. nov., isolated from an alkaline soil in Korea Free

Abstract

A Gram-negative, motile, rod-shaped bacterial strain, KSL-125, was isolated from an alkaline soil from Kwangchun, Korea, and its taxonomic position was investigated in a polyphasic study. Strain KSL-125 grew optimally at 30 °C, at pH 7.5–8.0 and in the presence of 0.5 % (w/v) NaCl. A neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain KSL-125 joins the cluster comprising the two species at a bootstrap resampling value of 100 %. The values for similarity between the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain KSL-125 and those of the type strains of the two species were 98.9–99.0 %. Strain KSL-125 contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone and C 6, C 7 and/or iso-C 2-OH and C 7 as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipids were sphingoglycolipid, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine and an unidentified phospholipid. The DNA G+C content was 65.1 mol%. Strain KSL-125 was distinguishable from the two recognized species on the basis of differential phenotypic properties, DNA–DNA relatedness data and repetitive-sequence-based PCR genomic fingerprinting patterns. The phenotypic, phylogenetic and genetic data showed that strain KSL-125 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KSL-125 (=KCTC 12482 =DSM 17328).
