A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic and short rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated LD6T, was isolated from a forest soil sample in Suwon, Gyeonggi-do, Republic of Korea. Strain LD6T grew at 10–37 °C (optimal temperature, 28 °C), and tolerated pH 8.0 and 2 % (w/v) NaCl. Strain LD6T was related most closely to members of the genus Paraburkholderia , namely Paraburkholderia azotifigens NF2-5-3T (98.2 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), P. megapolitana A3T (97.9 %), P. ginsengiterrae DCY85T (97.9 %) and P. caribensis MWAP64T (97.7 %). The strain grew well on R2A agar, tryptone soya agar, Mueller-Hinton agar and nutrient agar. The major polar lipid profile comprised phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, aminophospholipid and glycolipid. The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone 8 (Q-8). The main fatty acids were C17 : 0 cyclo, C16 : 0, C16 : 0 3-OH, C19 : 0 cyclo ω8c and C12 : 0. The DNA G+C content of the isolated strain based on the whole genome sequence was 63.4 mol%. The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values between strain LD6T and its reference type strains ranged from 80.3 to 82.4%, and from 23.7 to 33.7%, respectively. Based on phenotypic, chemotypic and genotypic evidence, strain LD6T could be differentiated phylogenetically and phenotypically from the recognized species of the genus Paraburkholderia . Therefore, strain LD6T is considered to represent a novel species, for which the name Paraburkholderia flava sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is LD6T (=KACC 21387T=JCM 33640T).
