sp. nov., a naphthalene-degrading bacterium from tidal flat sediment Free

Abstract

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic and moderately halophilic bacterium, designated strain EMB201, was isolated from tidal flat sediment of the South Sea in Korea. Cells were motile rods with a single polar flagellum and had catalase- and oxidase-positive activities. Growth of strain EMB201 was observed at 15–37 °C (optimum, 30 °C), at pH 5.0–9.5 (optimum, pH 7.0–7.5) and in the presence of 1–7 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 2–3 %). Strain EMB201 contained ubiquinone-10 as the sole isoprenoid quinone and summed feature 8 (comprising Cω7/ω6), Cω7 11-methyl and C 3-OH as the major fatty acids. Phosphatidylglycerol and an unidentified amino lipid were identified as the major polar lipids and an unidentified phospholipid and three unidentified lipids were detected as minor components. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was approximately 58.4 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain EMB201 formed a phylogenetic lineage with members of the genus . Strain EMB201 was related most closely to ZXM137 with a 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 98.3 %, and the level of DNA–DNA relatedness between the two strains was 17.0 ± 2.0 %. The combined chemotaxonomic and molecular properties suggest that strain EMB201 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is EMB201 ( = KACC 18393 = JCM 30679).
