sp. nov. and sp. nov., isolated from Tibetan Plateau wildlife No Access

Abstract

Four mesophilic and Gram-stain-positive strains (zg-686/zg-691 and HY186/HY189) isolated from Tibetan Plateau wildlife (PR China) belong to the genus according to 16S rRNA gene and genomic sequence-based phylogenetic/genomic results. They have a DNA G+C content range of 67.4–68.3 mol% and low DNA relatedness (19.2–27.6 %) with all available genomes in the genus . Strains zg-686/zg-691 and HY186/HY189 had Cω9, C 10-methyl, C 7/Cω6 and C as major cellular fatty acids. The polar lipids detected in strains zg-686 and HY186 included diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidyl inositol mannoside and phosphatidylinositol. The respiratory quinones comprised MK8(H) (10.8 %) and MK9(H) (89.2 %) for strain zg-686, and MK6 (7.7 %), MK8(H) (8.4 %), MK8(H) (3.1 %) and MK9(H) (80.8 %) for strain HY186. Optimal growth conditions were pH 7.0, 35–37 °C and 0.5–1.5 % NaCl (w/v) for strains pair zg-686/zg-691, and pH 7.0, 28 °C and 1.5 % (w/v) NaCl for strains pair HY186/HY189. Based on these genotypic and phenotypic results, these four strains could be classified as two different novel species in the genus , for which the names sp. nov. and sp. nov. are proposed. The type strains are zg-686 (=GDMCC 1.1715 =JCM 33890) and HY186 (=CGMCC 4.7607 =JCM 33466), respectively.
