sp. nov., recovered from hospital sewage Free

Abstract

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile strain, WCHA30, was isolated from hospital sewage in West China Hospital of Sichuan University in Chengdu, south-western China. Strain WCHA30 was a non-spore-forming, catalase-positive, oxidase-negative, strictly aerobic coccobacillus. The DNA G+C content was 38 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA, and gene sequences revealed that the strain was distinct from any previously described species of the genus . Strain WCHA30 could be distinguished from all known species by its ability to assimilate β-alanine but not -glutamate. Genotypic and phenotypic characteristics from this study indicate that strain WCHA30 should be considered to represent a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is WCHA30 (=CCTCC AB 2016203=GDMCC 1.1101=KCTC 52503).
