Abstract

Strain EAR18 was isolated as an endophyte from the roots of a halophyte plant, , growing in the Odiel marshes (Huelva, Spain). Cells of strain EAR18 were Gram- stain-negative, motile, non-spore-forming aerobic rods. It grew optimally on tryptic soy agar supplemented with 2.5 % NaCl (w/v), at pH 7 and 30 °C for 48 h. It tolerated NaCl from 0 to 25 % (w/v). It presented Q9 as the major quinone and C cyclo 8, summed feature 8 (Cω7 and/or Cω6) and C as the predominant fatty acids. The polar lipid profile consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and four unidentified phospholipids. The results of phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain EAR18 formed a well-supported clade with species B6 and TRM 0175 (similarities of 98.3 and 96.1 % respectively). Furthermore, digital DNA–DNA hybridization analysis resulted in values of 20.4 % with TRM 0175 and 35.50 % with B6, and ANIb/ANIm results in values of 73.8 %/84.2 % with TRM 0175 and 86.8 %/89.4 % with B6. Based on phylogeny and differential phenotypic properties in comparison with its closest related species, strain EAR18 is suggested to represent a new species in the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is EAR18 (=CECT 9077=LMG 29859). The whole genome was sequenced, and it had a total length of 4.6 Mbp and a G+C content of 64.9 mol%.
