Abstract

In this study, two bacterial strains designated F2608 and F1192, isolated from marine sediment sampled in Weihai, PR China, were characterized using a polyphasic approach. Strains were aerobic, Gram-stain-negative and motile. According to the results of phylogenetic analyses based on their 16S rRNA genes, these two strains should be classified under the genus and they both show <98.5% sequence similarity to their closest relative, JCM 12601. Moreover, strain F2608 showed 97.5% sequence similarity to strain F1192. Strain F2608 grew at 4–37 °C (optimum, 30–33 °C) and at pH 6.0–9.0 (optimum, pH 6.5–7.0) in the presence of 0–12% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 4.0–5.0%). Strain F1192 grew at 4–37 °C (optimum, 30 °C) and at pH 5.5–9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0–7.5) in the presence of 0.5–12% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 3.0–4.0%). The genomic DNA G+C contents of strain F2608 and strain F1192 were 47.4 and 44.9 %, respectively. Genomic characteristics including average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values clearly separated strain F2608 from strain F1192. The sole isoprenoid quinone in these two strains was ubiquinone 8 and the major cellular fatty acids (>10.0%) were C 9 and C 8c. The major polar lipids of these two strains were phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and diphosphatidylglycerol. Based on the results of polyphasic analysis, the two strains represent two novel species of the genus , for which the names sp. nov. and sp. nov. are proposed. The type strains are F2608 (=MCCC 1K05774=KCTC 82766) and F1192 (=MCCC 1K05775=KCTC 82765), respectively.
