Abstract

Two slow-growing strains, AMBPC1010 and AMBPC1011, were isolated from nodules of in the Dominican Republic. 16S rRNA gene analysis placed these strains within the genus , being phylogenetically equidistant to several species of this genus. Analysis of the and genes showed that the strains isolated belong to a cluster containing the strains OO99, ‘' CMVU44 and CCBAU 15774, and presented similarity values lower than 96 % for both genes with respect to the strains nodulating . DNA–DNA hybridization analysis showed averages of 36, 40 and 39 % relatedness with respect to the representative strains of , ‘' and , respectively. Phenotypic characteristics also differed from those of the most closely related species of the genus . Therefore, based on the data obtained in this study, we propose to classify the strains AMBPC1010 (=LMG 29967=CECT 9227) and AMBPC1011 into a novel species named sp. nov.
