Abstract

A reddish pink-pigmented, Gram-stain-negative, aerobic and methylotrophic bacterial strain, designated strain IER25-16, was isolated from a laboratory air conditioning system in the Republic of Korea. Cells were motile rods showing catalase- and oxidase-positive reactions. Strain IER25-16 grew at 10–40 °C (optimum, 30 °C), at pH 4.0–7.0 (optimum, pH 5.0–7.0) and in the presence of 0–1.0 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0 %). The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone-10 and ubiquinone-9 was also detected as the minor respiratory quinone. Summed feature 8 (comprising C 7 and/or C 6) was detected as the predominant fatty acids. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain IER25-16 was 70.0 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence comparison revealed that strain IER25-16 belonged to the genus of the class Strain IER25-16 was most closely related to PMB02 (97.9 %), GR16 (97.9 %) and N4211 (97.5 %). The average nucleotide identity and DNA–DNA hybridization values between strain IER25-16 and , and were 88.3, 88.8 and 89.6 % and 36.2, 37.3 and 39.3 %, respectively. The phenotypic and chemotaxonomic features and the phylogenetic inference clearly suggested that strain IER25-16 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is strain IER25-16 (=KACC 19280=JCM 32048).
