Abstract

A Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, rod-shaped, non-motile, endospore-forming and UV-resistant bacterial strain, designated strain TKL69, was isolated from sandy soil sampled in the Taklimakan Desert. The strain grew at 20–50 °C, pH 6–9 and with 0–12 % (w/v) NaCl. The major fatty acids were anteiso-C, iso-C and C. The only respiratory quinone was MK-7. The cell-wall peptidoglycan was -diaminopimelic acid. Diphosphatidyl glycerol, two unidentified aminophospholipids and one unidentified phospholipid were identified as the major polar lipids. Genomic DNA analysis revealed a G+C content of 38.5 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain TKL69 has the highest similarity to CGMCC 1.12331 (96.9 %) but belongs to an independent taxon separated from other genera of the family . Phylogenetic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic analyses suggested that strain TKL69 represents a novel species of a new genus, for which the name gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain being TKL69 (=JCM 33497=CICC 24779).
