sp. nov., isolated from seawater, transfer of to gen. nov. as comb. nov. and emended description of the genus Free

Abstract

A novel Gram-stain-negative, oxidase- and catalase-positive, aerobic bacterium, designated strain SM1351, was isolated from surface seawater of the Atlantic Ocean. This strain grew at 4–45 °C and with 5–90 g NaCl l. It did not reduce nitrate to nitrite and could not hydrolyse starch or DNA. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the strain was affiliated with the genus in the family , with sequence similarities with the type strains of and , the two recognized species of the genus , of 96.2 and 94.6 %, respectively. The major fatty acids of strain SM1351 were Cω7 and/or iso-C 2-OH, Cω8, Cω7 and C and the major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol. The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone Q-8. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain SM1351 was 62 mol%. On the basis of the polyphasic characterization of strain SM1351 in this study, it is considered to represent a novel species in the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SM1351 ( = CCTCC AB 2014266 = JCM 30304). Moreover, the transfer of to gen. nov. as comb. nov. (type strain 7SM29 = CECT 7447 = DSM 21924) and an emended description of the genus are also proposed.
