Abstract

Seven slow-growing rhizobia isolated from effective nodules of were assigned to the genus based on sharing 96.3–99.9 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with the type strains of recognized species. Multilocus sequence analysis of , , and genes indicated that the seven strains belonged to two novel species represented by CCBAU 51649 and CCBAU 53363. Strain CCBAU 51649 shared 94, 93.4, 92.3 and 94.9 % and CCBAU 53363 shared 91.4, 94.5, 94.6 and 97.7 % sequence similarity for the , and genes, respectively, with respect to the closest related species BR 3351 and CCBAU 10071. Summed feature 8 and C were the predominant fatty acid components for strains CCBAU 51649 and CCBAU 53363. DNA–DNA hybridization and analysis of phenotypic characteristics also distinguished these strains from the closest related species. The strains formed effective nodules on , and , and they had identical genes to sp. PI237 but were phylogenetically divergent from other available genes at less than 66 % similarity. Based in these results, strains CCBAU 51649 ( = CGMCC 1.15034 = LMG 28620) and CCBAU 53363 ( = CGMCC 1.15035 = LMG 28621) are designated the type strains of two novel species, for which the names sp. nov. and sp. nov. are proposed, respectively.
