Abstract

A Gram-stain-positive, alkaliphilic, non-spore-forming, non-motile bacterium, designated VDS11, was isolated from a soil sample collected from the hexachlorocyclohexane dumpsite, located at Ummari Village, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain VDS11 occupies a distinct phylogenetic position within the genus , showing the highest sequence similarity with MFC-5 (98.7 %) and 2673/12 (98.4 %). The DNA G+C content was 50.6 mol% and the DNA–DNA hybridization (DDH) relatedness value with MFC-5 and 2673/12 was 49.7 and 39.6 %, respectively. Strain VDS11 contained C (28.3), Cω9 (52.3), C (1.3) and C (3.0) as the major cellular fatty acids. The major isoprenoid quinone was MK-9(H). Strain VDS11 contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, unidentified aminolipids, glycolipids, phospholipids and unidentified lipids as the major polar lipids. The peptidoglycan type was A31 ( 2, 6-diaminopimelic acid, directly cross-linked). Based on the results of DDH studies and the biochemical and physiological data, strain VDS11 represents a novel species of the genus for which the name has been proposed. The type strain is VDS11(=DSM 100104=MCC 2722=KCTC 39687).
