RT Journal Article SR Electronic(1) A1 Wang, Jing-jing A1 Chen, Qi A1 Li, Yue-zhongYR 2018 T1 Chryseolinea flava sp. nov., a new species of Chryseolinea isolated from soil JF International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, VO 68 IS 11 SP 3518 OP 3522 DO https://doi.org/10.1099/ijsem.0.003022 PB Microbiology Society, SN 1466-5034, AB A pale yellow bacterial strain, designated SDU1-6T, was isolated from a soil sample collected in the Jinan campus of Shandong University, Shandong Province, PR China. The strain was aerobic, motile, Gram-stain-negative and rod-shaped. Cellular growth occurred at 13–37 °C, pH 5.0–10.0 and with 0–0.1 % (w/v) NaCl, and the optimal growth was at 25 °C and pH 7.5. SDU1-6T had the highest 16S rRNA gene similarity of 95.42 % with Chryseolinea serpens DSM 24574T. The genome was 6 542 746 bp in length with 43.5 mol% DNA G+C content. The major fatty acids of SDU1-6T were C16 : 1ω5 and iso-C15 : 0, the major menaquinone was menaquinone-7 (MK-7) and the major polar lipid was phosphatidylethanolamine. On the basis of the polyphasic evidence and the 16S rRNA gene sequence, SDU1-6T represents a novel species of the genus Chryseolinea , for which the name Chryseolinea flava sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SDU1-6T (=CGMCC 1.13492T=JCM 32520T)., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijsem.0.003022
