sp. nov., a moderately halophilic bacterium isolated from a saline-alkali soil Free

Abstract

A taxonomic study was performed on strain LCB256, which was isolated from a saline-alkali soil sample taken from northwestern China. Cells of strain LCB256 were Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, rod-shaped and grew at 3–17 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum 10–15 %), 10–52 °C (optimum 25–30 °C) and pH 7.0–9.0 (optimum 8.0). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain LCB256 was most closely related to the two genera of and , showing highest sequence similarity to KCTC 13823 (97.8 %) and WSBC 24001 (97.2 %). The peptidoglycan amino acid type was found to be A4β and the major respiratory quinone was determined to be MK-7. The polar lipid profile of strain LCB256 contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, one unidentified phospholipid and two unidentified aminolipids. The dominant cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C and iso-C. The G+C content of genomic DNA was 39.3 mol%. DNA–DNA relatedness values between strain LCB256 and KCTC 13822 and KCTC 13823 were 46.2 and 34.8 %, respectively. Based on this polyphasic taxonomic study, a novel species of the genus , sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is LCB256 (=CGMCC 1.15809=KCTC 33862).
