sp. nov., a new member of the genus isolated from rhizospheric soil of a jujube tree No Access

Abstract

A Gram-stain negative, aerobic, rod-shaped and creamy pink-coloured bacterium, designated MAHUQ-68, was isolated from rhizospheric soil of a jujube tree. Colonies grew at 10–40 °C (optimum, 28 °C), pH 6.0–9.0 (optimum pH, 7.0) and in the presence of 0–1.5 % NaCl (optimum 0–0.5 %). Positive for both catalase and oxidase activity. Strain MAHUQ-68 hydrolysed casein, starch, aesculin and -tyrosine. Based on the results of phylogenetic analysis using 16S rRNA gene and genome sequences, strain MAHUQ-68 clustered together within the genus . The closest members were HR-AV (98.8 % sequence similarity), DSM 3403 (96.9 %) and R2A36-4 (94.0 %). The genome of strain MAHUQ-68 was 4 250 173 bp long with 68 scaffolds and 3 570 protein-coding genes. The genomic DNA G+C content of the type strain was 38.0 mol%. The average nucleotide identity and DNA–DNA hybridization values between strain MAHUQ-68 and its closest relatives were 72.0–81.4% and 19.8–24.3 %, respectively. The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C and summed feature 3 (C 7 and/or C 6). The main respiratory quinone was menaquinone-7. The polar lipids comprised phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminolipid and four unidentified lipids. Based on these data, strain MAHUQ-68 represents a novel species in the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is MAHUQ-68 (=KACC 22249=CGMCC 1.19062).
