Abstract

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, moderately halophilic bacterium, strain DY53, was isolated from a deep-seawater sample collected from the eastern Pacific Ocean. This isolate grew in the presence of 0.5–10.0 % (w/v) NaCl, at pH 6.5–8.5 and at 15–40 °C. The optimum NaCl concentration for growth of DY53 was 2 % (w/v) at 35 °C. Chemotaxonomic analysis showed MK-7 as the predominant menaquinone and iso-C, summed feature 3 (iso-C 2-OH and/or Cω7), iso-C G, iso-C 3-OH and iso-C 3-OH as major cellular fatty acids. The genomic DNA G+C content was 40.8 mol%. Phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that UST030701-097 was the closest neighbour, with 96.7 % sequence similarity. Based on phylogenetic, chemotaxonomic and phenotypic data, we propose that strain DY53 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DY53( = CGMCC 1.12402 = JCM 18885).
