Abstract
A polyphasic taxonomic approach was used to characterize a Gram-stain-negative bacterium, designated strain CC-YST696T, harbouring antibiotic- and toxic compound-resistace genes, isolated from poultry manure in Taiwan. Cells of CC-YST696T were short rods, motile with polar flagella, catalase- and oxidase-positive. Optimal growth occurred at 30 °С, pH 9 and with 1 % NaCl. The results of phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA genes revealed a distinct taxonomic position attained by CC-YST696T associated with Devosia chinhatensis (97.9 % sequence identity), Devosia riboflavina (97.3 %) and Devosia indica (97.2 %), and with lower sequence similarity values to other species. Average nucleotide identity (ANI) values were 72.8–80.0 % (n=17) compared within the type strains of species of of the genus Devosia . CC-YST696T contained C16:0, C18:0, C18:1ω7c 11-methyl and C18:1ω6c/ C18:1ω7c as the predominant fatty acids. The polar lipid profile consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, two unidentified aminolipids, three unidentified glycolipids, two unidentified phospholipids and three unidentified lipids. The DNA G+C content was 62.2 mol% and the predominant quinone was ubiquinone Q-10. On the basis of its distinct phylogenetic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic traits together with results of comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence and ANI analyses, strain CC-YST696T is proposed to represent a novel species of the genus Devosia , for which the name Devosia faecipullorum sp. nov. (type strain CC-YST696T=BCRC 81284T=JCM 34167T) is proposed.
