Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain YX9T formed the same branch within the members of the genus Runella and showed high relatedness to Runella slithyformis DSM 19594T (98.1 %), Runella palustris HMF3829T (96.0 %) and Runella zeae NS12T (95.4 %). The genome length of strain YX9T was 7.21 Mb, had 5985 coding sequences and a DNA G+C content of 44.8 mol%. The average nucleotide identity value of the draft genomes between strain YX9T and R . slithyformis DSM 19594T was 80.7 %. The major fatty acids of strain YX9T were iso-C15 : 0, C16:1 ω5c and summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω7c and/or C16:1 ω6c). The predominant respiratory quinone was menaquinone 7. The polar lipids of strain YX9T were phosphatidylethanolamine, four unidentified lipids, two aminolipids, a phospholipid and a glycolipid. Based on the results of genotypic and phenotypic studies, strain YX9T represents a novel species within the genus Runella , for which the name Runella aurantiaca sp. nov. is proposed (=KCTC 62875T=CCTCC AB 2018214T)., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijsem.0.003435
