Abstract

A Gram-positive, spore-forming, aerobic, rod-shaped, xylanolytic bacterium designated strain CC-Alfalfa-35 was isolated from the rhizosphere of L. in Taiwan. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that strain CC-Alfalfa-35 was affiliated to the genus . Strain CC-Alfalfa-35 shared 95.3 % pairwise 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to the type strain of the type species of the genus ( DSM 17683) besides showing a similarity of 97.4–93.6 % with other recognized species of the genus . The DNA–DNA hybridization value between CC-Alfalfa-35 and KCTC 22296 was 37.7 %±1.7 % (reciprocal value, 55.7 %±3.0 %). Predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C and anteiso-C. The polar lipid profile constituted diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, lysyl-phosphatidylglycerol, three unidentified phospholipids and three unidentified aminophospholipids. The major respiratory quinone was MK-7 and the DNA G+C content was 58.3 mol%. Strain CC-Alfalfa-35 contained -diaminopimelic acid as the major diamino acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan. Based on the polar lipid and fatty acid profiles, which were in line with those of DSM 17683, coupled with additional distinguishing genotypic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic features, strain CC-Alfalfa-35 is proposed to represent a novel species within the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CC-Alfalfa-35 ( = JCM 18405 = BCRC 80428).
