Abstract

A Gram-stain-negative, pseudo-rod, non-spore-forming, oxidase- and catalase-positive, strictly aerobic bacterium, designated Gsoil 221, was isolated from soil of a ginseng field and subjected to a taxonomic analysis using a polyphasic approach. Strain Gsoil 221 grew at 10–37 °C and at pH 5.0–8.0 on R2A medium. Strain Gsoil 221 possessed -glucosidase activity, which was responsible for its ability to transform ginsenosides Rb and Rc (two dominant active components of ginseng) to ginsenoside F. Phylogenetic study based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence positioned strain Gsoil 221 in a distinct lineage in the family , sharing less than 94.4 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with all taxa with validly published names. The strain showed the highest sequence similarities with members of the genera and . Strain Gsoil 221 contained MK-7 as predominant quinone, and iso-C, iso-C 3-OH and iso-C G as major fatty acids. The DNA G+C content was 47.1 mol%. Strain Gsoil 221 could be distinguished from the other members of the family by a number of chemotaxonomic and phenotypic characteristics. The major polar lipids of strain Gsoil 221 were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and one unidentified polar lipid. Based on these combined data, strain Gsoil 221 represents a novel species of a new genus in the family , for which the name gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of the type species is Gsoil 221 (=KACC 14278=DSM 18116).
