Abstract

Two novel Gram-stain-positive, rod-shaped, non-motile, non-endospore-forming bacterial strains, S7 and IB5, were isolated from Khavda, India. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis they were identified as belonging to the class order , family , and were most closely related to CGMCC 1.6134 (97.3 %, sequence similarity), LMG 24571 (96.9 %), KCTC 3912 (95.6 %) and DSM 18341 (95.3 %). However, these strains shared only 88.2 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with subsp. DSM 10, indicating that strains S7 and IB5 might not be members of the genus . The DNA–DNA relatedness of these strains with CGMCC 1.6134 was 42.9 ± 0.8. The cell-wall peptidoglycan of strains S7 and IB5 contained -diaminopimelic acid, while the polar lipids included diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, a phospholipid and three unknown lipids. The predominant isoprenoid quinone was MK-7. anteiso-C was the predominant fatty acid. The results of the phylogenetic, chemotaxonomic and biochemical tests allowed a clear differentiation of strains S7 and IB5, suggesting that they represent a novel member of the family , for which the name gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of is S7 ( = KCTC 33658 = CGMCC 1.15324). Based on the results of the present study, it is also suggested that and should be transferred to this novel genus, as comb. nov. and comb. nov., respectively.
