sp. nov., isolated from the Red Maple Lake Free

Abstract

A Gram-stain-positive, motile, facultatively anaerobic, non-sporing, and rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated HF60, was isolated from the Red Maple Lake of Guizhou Province, China. The DNA G+C content of the strain HF60 was 55.0 %. The predominant isoprenoid quinones were identified as MK-7 (56.4 %) and MK-8 (35.7 %). The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol and aminophosphoglycolipid. The major fatty acids were anteiso-C, iso-C, C and iso-C. The strain had cell wall peptidoglycan type A3α -Lys-Gly. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain HF60 belonged to the genus and was most closely related to JCM 13490 (97.2 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), followed by DSM 14481 (97.1 %), DSM 14480 (96.9 %) and NBRC 14763 (94.5 %). The differential phenotypic properties, together with the phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness indicated that strain HF60 can be considered to represent a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed, The type strain is HF60 (=MCCC 1H00336=KCTC 33987).
