Abstract

Strain YIM 78300, a novel Gram-stain-positive, moderately thermophilic, endospore-forming, rod-shaped, motile bacterium, was recovered from the sediment of a hot spring in the Tagejia Geothermal Field, Angren, Tibet province, western China. Optimum growth was observed at 50–55 °C, at pH 7.0 and with 0–1.5 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain YIM 78300 indicated that it belongs to the genus . Similarity levels between the 16S rRNA gene sequences of the new isolate and those of the type strains of members were 96.9–96.3 %; highest sequence similarity was with DSM 7064. The predominant menaquinone was MK-7 and the major cellular fatty acids were iso-C and iso-C. The major polar lipids were phosphatidyl--methylethanolamine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, two unidentified phospholipids, an unidentified aminophospholipid and two unidentified polar lipids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA of strain YIM 78300 was 57.9 mol%. Based on phylogenetic analyses, and physiological and biochemical characteristics, strain YIM 78300 is considered to represent a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YIM 78300 ( = DSM 29928 = CPCC 100738).
