Strain JH1-1T could grow at 10–35 °C (optimum, 28–30 °C), pH 4.5–8.5 and tolerated 5 % (w/v) NaCl. Strain JH1-1T was most closely related to members of the genus Arthrobacter , namely Arthrobacter alkaliphilus LC6T (98.5 % similarity), Arthrobacter methylotrophus TGAT (98.4 %), Arthrobacter ramosus CCM 1646T (97.8 %), Arthrobacter bambusae THG-GM18T (97.5 %) and Arthrobacter pokkalii P3B162T (97.3 %). The strain grew well on Reasoner's 2A agar, tryptone soya agar, nutrient agar, Mueller–Hinton agar and Luria–Bertani agar. The major polar lipid profile comprised phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, unidentified phospholipid and unidentified glycolipids. The major respiratory quinone was MK-9(H2). The main fatty acids were C15 : 0 anteiso, C15 : 0 iso, C16 : 0 iso and C17 :0 anteiso. The DNA G+C content of the isolated strain based on the whole genome sequence was 63.6 mol%. The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values between strain JH1-1T and its reference type strains ranged from 81.3 to 85.4 % and from 21.1 to 29.1 %, respectively. Based on phenotypic, chemotypic and genotypic evidence, strain JH1-1T could be differentiated phylogenetically and phenotypically from the recognized species of the genus Arthrobacter . Therefore, strain JH1-1T is considered to represent a novel species, for which the name Arthrobacter terricola sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is JH1-1T (=KACC 21385T=JCM 33641T).", }
