Abstract

A halo- and organo-sensitive oligotrophic bacterium, designated strain SY-6, was isolated from humus forest soil at Gyeryong mountain in Korea. Cells of the strain were Gram-negative, strictly aerobic, non-motile rods and the strain formed yellow-pigmented colonies on 100-fold-diluted nutrient broth. Strain SY-6 grew at pH 6.0–7.0 (optimal growth at pH 7.0), at 10–37 °C (optimal growth at 28 °C) and at salinities of 0–0.5 % (w/v) NaCl, growing optimally at 0.01 % (w/v) NaCl. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain SY-6 was shown to belong to the genus and showed the closest phylogenetic similarity to B2-7 (96.7 %). The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine and sphingoglycolipid. The predominant ubiquinone and polyamine were Q-10 and -homospermidine, respectively. The major fatty acids were Cω7 and C. The DNA G+C content of the novel isolate was 65.3 mol%. On the basis of the evidence from this polyphasic study, strain SY-6 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SY-6 ( = KACC 12948 = NBRC 105508).
