The strain grew at 4–37 °C (optimum, 28 °C), pH 4.5–8.0 (pH 6.0–7.5) and in the presence of 0–4.0 % (2.0 %, w/v) NaCl. In the 16S rRNA gene sequence phylogram, strain DHC06T formed a clade with Dyella solisilvae DHG54T and Dyella terrae KACC 12748T within the genus of Dyella . Strain DHC06T had 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities of 98.6, 98.3, 98.3 and 98.2 % to Dyella japonica DSM 16301T, Dyella terrae JS14-6T, Dyella soli KACC 12747T and Dyella solisilvae DHG54T, respectively. The distinctiveness of strain DHC06Tfrom all described Dyella species was also supported by the results of phylogenomic analysis based on 92 single-copy gene sequences. The DDH values among strain DHC06T and closely related Dyella species were all lower than 70 %. Strain DHC06T contained Q-8 as the only respiratory quinone. Its main fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C17 : 1 ω9c and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1 ω6c/C16 : 1 ω7c). The DNA G+C content of strain DHC06T was 64.6 mol%. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol. On the basis of phenotypic, 16S rRNA gene sequence and genomic analyses and chemotaxonomic data, strain DHC06T represents a novel species of the genus Dyella , for which the name Dyella amyloliquefaciens sp. nov. (type strain DHC06T=GDMCC 1.1186T=LMG 30090T) is proposed., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijsem.0.003660
