On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain PY2T was shown to belong to the genus Terrabacter and was most closely related to Terrabacter lapilli LR-26T (99.1 % similarity). Strain PY2T was characterized chemotaxonomically as having iso-C15 : 0 as the predominant fatty acid, MK-8(H4) as the major menaquinone, ll-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid of the cell wall, as possessing a polar lipid profile that included diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol and unknown amino-containing phosphoglycolipids, and having a DNA G+C content of 75.6 mol%. DNA–DNA relatedness values between strain PY2T and the type strains of T. lapilli, Terrabacter tumescens, Terrabacter terrae and Terrabacter aerolatus were 20.0 %, 22.9 %, 35.9 % and 64.5 %, respectively. Based on the combined evidence from the phylogenetic analyses, chemotaxonomic data and DNA–DNA hybridization experiments, it is proposed that strain PY2T represents a novel species for which the name Terrabacter carboxydivorans sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is PY2T (=KCCM 42922T=JCM 16259T).", }
