Abstract

A Gram-stain-positive, non-motile, catalase-positive and cytochrome oxidase-negative bacterium, designated strain S20-107, was isolated from alpine forest soil. Growth occurred at 0–30 °C, at pH 6–9 and in the presence of 0–3 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain S20-107 was related to the genus and had the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with DS-52 (96.1 %). Strain S20-107 showed <96.1% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities to all other recognized members of the genus . The cell-wall peptidoglycan contained -diaminopimelic acid. The major whole-cell sugars were glucose, galactose, mannose, arabinose, ribose and rhamnose. The strain contained MK-8(H) as the predominant menaquinone and diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and an unidentified aminophospholipid as the major polar lipids. The major cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C, C, summed feature 3 (Cω6 and/or Cω7 and/or iso-C 2-OH) and iso-C. The genomic DNA G+C content was 70.5 mol%. Combined data of phylogenetic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic analyses demonstrated that strain S20-107 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is S20-107 (=DSM 102309=LMG 29427).
