Abstract

A non-motile, rod-shaped and pale-pink bacterium, designated strain WS71, was isolated from freshwater collected from the Woopo Wetland (Republic of Korea). Cells were Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, catalase-positive and oxidase-negative. The major fatty acids were summed feature 3 (comprising Cω6 and/or Cω7), iso-C 3-OH, C and iso-C. The strain contained menaquinone 7 (MK-7) and the DNA G+C content was 39.4±0.4 mol%. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine and an unknown aminophospholipid. A phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that WS71 forms an evolutionary lineage within the radiation enclosing the members of genus with HME6664 as its nearest neighbor (98.3 % sequence similarity). DNA–DNA relatedness between WS71 and HME6664 was 61.3±1.0 %. A number of phenotypic characteristics distinguished WS71 from the other members of the genus . On the basis of the evidence presented in this study, WS71 represents a novel species, for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is WS71 (=KCTC 32270=JCM 19495).
