Abstract

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, yellow-pigmented and rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated SN6-13, was isolated from soil of the Gotjawal, lava forest, located in Jeju, Republic of Korea. Cells of strain SN6-13 were oxidase- and catalase-positive. The isolate contained Q-10 as the predominant isoprenoid quinone, summed feature 8 (Cω7 and/or Cω6) and C as the major fatty acids, -homospermidine as the major polyamine and diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, sphingoglycolipid, ninhydrinphosphatidylglycerol and two unidentified aminophospholipids as the polar lipids. The DNA G+C content was 64.6 mol%. In phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing, strain SN6-13 was most closely related to LNB2 (95.4 % sequence similarity) and formed a separate lineage in the genus . Based on phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic characteristics, it is concluded that strain SN6-13 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SN6-13 ( = KCTC 42454 = CECT 8804).
