Abstract

A bacterial strain designated CRZM18R was isolated from a root of in Spain. The analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that this strain belongs to the genus , with ALA10B2 and H66 being the most closely related species with 98.3 and 97.9 % sequence similarity, respectively. The analysis of the concatenated and genes showed that strain CRZM18R forms a cluster with these species and also with PTYR-5, but the and genes of strain CRZM18R were phylogenetically distant, with identities lower than 90 and 96 %, respectively. DNA–DNA hybridization analysis showed mean relatedness of 43, 22 and 38 % with respect to ALA10B2, LMG 28229 and LMG 27604. Phenotypic characteristics also differed from those of the most closely related species of the genus . The major fatty acids were those from summed feature 8 (Cω6/C ω7) and C. Based on the genotypic, chemotaxonomic and phenotypic data obtained in this study, we propose to classify strain CRZM18R in a novel species named sp. nov. (type strain CRZM18R=LMG 29735=CECT 9169).
