Abstract

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-spore-forming, motile and ovoid or rod-shaped bacterial strain, JDTF-113, was isolated from a tidal flat in Jindo, an island of South Korea. Strain JDTF-113 grew optimally at 30 °C, at pH 7.0–8.0 and in the presence of 2.0 % (w/v) NaCl. A neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree, based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, revealed that strain JDTF-113 fell within the clade enclosing the type strains of species of the genus . Strain JDTF-113 exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 97.1–98.1 % to the type strains of , , , , , and , and of 94.8–96.9 % to those of the other species of the genus . Strain JDTF-113 contained Q-8 as the predominant ubiquinone and C, summed feature 3 (Cω7 and/or Cω6) and Cω7 as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipids of strain JDTF-113 were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and one unidentified glycolipid. The DNA G+C content of strain JDTF-113 was 51.1 mol% and its mean DNA–DNA relatedness values with the type strains of seven closely phylogenetically related species of the genus were was 10–23 %. The differential phenotypic properties and phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness support strain JDTF-113 being separated from species of the genus . On the basis of the data presented, strain JDTF-113 is considered to represent a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is JDTF-113 (=KCTC 52655=NBRC 112708).
