sp. nov., isolated from a tidal flat Free

Abstract

A Gram-stain-negative, non-flagellated, non-gliding, aerobic and ovoid or rod-shaped bacterium, designated OITF-51, was isolated from a tidal flat in Oido, an island of South Korea, and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. Strain OITF-51 grew optimally at 30 °C, at pH 7.0–8.0 and in the presence of 2.0 % (w/v) NaCl. The neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain OITF-51 forms a cluster with the type strains of three species of the genus . Strain OITF-51 exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 97.0, 95.8 and 95.8 % to the type strains of , and , respectively, and of less than 96.5 % to the type strains of other recognized species. Strain OITF-51 contained MK-6 as the predominant menaquinone and iso-C G, iso-C, iso-C 3-OH and iso-C 3-OH as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipids detected in strain OITF-51 were phosphatidylethanolamine and one unidentified lipid. The DNA G+C content of strain OITF-51 was 33.4 mol%, and its mean DNA–DNA relatedness value with the type strain of was 13 %. Differential phenotypic properties, together with its phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, revealed that strain OITF-51 is separated from recognized species of the genus . On the basis of the data presented, strain OITF-51 is considered to represent a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is OITF-51 (=KCTC 52657=NBRC 112707).
