Abstract

A Gram-negative, rod-shaped aerobic bacterium designated as strain 2R12 was isolated from the rhizosphere soil of . Phylogenetic analyses based on the 16S rRNA gene revealed that strain 2R12 should be assigned to the genus with the highest sequence similarity to DSM 3695 (99.1 %) and DSM 18108 (98.6 %). The major fatty acids of strain 2R12 (>10 %) were iso-C, C 5 and iso-C 3-OH. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, two unidentified aminolipids and five unidentified lipids. The predominant respiratory quinone was MK-7. The genomic DNA G+C content was 46.1 mol%. The average nucleotide identity values of strain 2R12 with DSM 3695 and DSM 18108 were 77.9 and 78.8 %, respectively, while DNA–DNA hybridization values for strain 2R12 with these strains were 22.8 and 23.3 %, respectively. Based on comparative analysis of phylogenetic, phylogenomic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, strain 2R12 represents a novel species in the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 2R12 (=ACCC 61757=JCM 34719).
