Abstract

A Gram-stain-negative, motile, polyhydroxybutyrate-accumulating, aerobic, S-shaped bacterium, designated B3, was isolated from the wastewater of a pickle-processing factory. 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity analysis showed that it was most closely related to the type strain, (96.6 % similarity). Strain B3 was able to grow at 4–40 °C (optimum 32–37 °C), pH 5.5–9.0 (optimum 6.5–7.5) and with 0.5–8 % (w/v) NaCl present (optimum 1–2 %, w/v). Chemotaxonomic analysis showed that the respiratory quinone was ubiquinone Q-10, the major fatty acids included C, Cω7 and Cω7 and/or iso-C2-OH. The major polar lipids included diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, aminophospholipid and three uncharacterized phospholipids. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain B3 was 42.3 mol%. The DNA–DNA relatedness value between B3 and DSM 9263 was 23.9 %. On the basis of the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and genotypic characteristics of strain B3, it represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is B3 ( = KCTC 42652 = CGMCC 1.15254). Emended descriptions of and the genus are also presented.
