Abstract

Four bacterial strains (S1Bt3, S1Bt7, S1Bt30 and S1Bt42) isolated from soil collected from the rhizosphere of a native legume, , were investigated using a polyphasic approach. Colonies were fluorescent, white-yellowish, circular and convex with regular margins on King’s B medium. Cells were Gram-reaction-negative, aerobic, non-spore-forming rods. Oxidase- and catalase-positive. The optimal growth temperature of the strains was 37 °C. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences placed the strains within the genus . Analysis of the 16S rRNA- concatenated sequences clustered the strains and well separated from CIP 104664 and CFM 97-514 with the type strains of the closest species. Phylogenomic analysis of 92 up-to-date bacterial core gene and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight MS biotyper data confirmed the distinct clustering pattern of these four strains. Digital DNA–DNA hybridization (41.7 %–31.2 %) and average nucleotide identity (91.1 %–87.0 %) values relative to closest validly published species were below the species delineation thresholds of 70 and 96 %, respectively. Fatty acid composition results validated the taxonomic position of the novel strains in the genus . Phenotypic characteristics from carbon utilization tests differentiated the novel strains from closely related species. prediction of secondary metabolite biosynthesis gene clusters in the whole-genome sequences of the four strains revealed the presence of 11 clusters involved in the production of siderophore, redox-cofactor, betalactone, terpene, arylpolyene and nonribosomal peptides. Based on phenotypic and genotypic data, strains S1Bt3, S1Bt7, S1Bt30 and S1Bt42 represent a novel species for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is S1Bt42 (=DOAB 746=LMG 32141=CECT 30251). The genomic DNA G+C content is 60.95 mol%.
