Abstract

Three bacterial strains were isolated from liver and spleen of diseased farmed redbanded seabream () in south-west Spain. Their partial 16S rRNA gene sequences clustered within those of the genus , showing high similarity (98.6–99.3 %) to the type strains of , , , and . Multilocus sequence analysis using six housekeeping genes (, , , , and 16S rRNA) confirmed the new strains as forming an independent branch with a bootstrap value of 100, likely to represent a novel species. To confirm this, we used whole genome sequencing and genomic analysis (ANIb, ANIm and DNA–DNA hybridization) obtaining values well below the thresholds for species delineation. In addition, a phenotypic characterization was performed to support the description and differentiation of the novel strains from related taxa. Cells were Gram-stain-negative, motile bacilli, chemo-organotrophic and facultatively anaerobic. They fermented glucose, as well as galactose and -mannose, without production of gas. Oxidase and catalase were positive. The predominant cellular fatty acids were Cω7/Cω6 and C. The predominant respiratory quinone (Q-8) and major polar lipids (phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol) were inferred from annotated genes in the genome of strain H01100410B, which had a G+C content of 38.6 mol%. The results obtained demonstrate that the three strains represent a novel species, for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is H01100410B (=CECT 9189=LMG 29991).
