sp. nov., isolated from tropical soil Free

Abstract

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, deep yellow, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain LCS9, was isolated from a soil sample at the tropical zone within the Ecorium of the National Institute of Ecology in Seocheon, central-western Korea. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain LCS9 clustered with members of the genus of the family , phylum . Sequence similarities between strain LCS9 and the type strains of the genus ranged from 94.6 to 94.9 %. Strain LCS9 grew at 10–37 °C (optimum, 25 °C) and at pH 6.0–10.0 (optimum, pH 7); was positive for catalase and oxidase; and negative for nitrate reduction and production of indole. Cells showed pigment absorbance peaks at 451 and 479 nm, and had 0.03 % survival following exposure to 3 kGy gamma radiation. Strain LCS9 had the following chemotaxonomic characteristics: the major quinone was menaquinone-7 (MK-7); the major fatty acids were iso-C and iso-C 3-OH; polar lipids included phosphoatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminophospholipid, unidentified aminolipidsand unidentified lipids. The DNA G+C content was 39.4 mol%. Based on polyphasic analysis, the type strain LCS9 (=KCTC 42070=JCM 19972) represents a novel species for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. Radiation resistance in the genus has not been reported to date, and so this is the first report of low-level radiation resistance of a member of the genus.
