sp. nov., isolated from a weathered limestone sample in a karst area Free

Abstract

A novel Gram-stain-positive, aerobic bacterium, designated strain DHS C021, was isolated from a limestone sample collected from the Puding Karst Ecosystem Research Station of Guizhou Province, southwest China. This strain developed branched vegetative mycelia, and its aerial mycelia fragmented into rod-shaped spores. The cell-wall peptidoglycan contained -diaminopimelic acid and the whole-cell sugars comprised galactose, ribose and mannose. The respiratory quinone was identified as menaquinone MK-9(H). The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C and iso-C. The phospholipids detected were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, hydroxyl-phosphatidyethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphotidylinositolmannosides and one unidentified phospholipid. The genomic DNA G+C content was 69.8 mol% and 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that the strain belonged to the genus and shared highest sequence similarity with CGMCC 4.1727 (98.8 %) and CGMCC 4.1646 (98.5 %). However, it could be distinguished from these reference strains based on the low levels of DNA–DNA relatedness (54.5±2.7 and 41.7±3.2 %, respectively). On the basis of morphological, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic characteristics, and DNA–DNA hybridization data, strain DHS C021 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DHS C021 (=CGMCC 4.7319=KCTC 39694).
