Cyclobacterium jeungdonense sp. nov., isolated from a solar saltern Joung, Yochan and Kim, Haneul and Kim, Seung Bum and Joh, Kiseong,, 64, 11-15 (2014), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/ijs.0.053546-0, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1466-5026, abstract= A horseshoe-shaped, orange-pigmented strain, HMD3055T, was isolated from a solar saltern in Korea. Strain HMD3055T grew optimally at 25 °C and with a salt concentration of 3–5 %. The predominant quinone of strain HMD3055T was menaquinone (MK)-7. The major fatty acids of strain HMD3055T were iso-C15 : 0, summed feature 3 (comprising C16 : 1ω6c and/or C16 : 1ω7c) and summed feature 9 (iso-C17 : 1ω9c and/or 10-methyl C16 : 0). The polar lipids of HMD3055T consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine, one unidentified phospholipid, one unidentified aminolipid and five unidentified polar lipids. The phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain HMD3055T formed a distinct lineage within the genus Cyclobacterium . Strain HMD3055T was closely related to Cyclobacterium lianum (95.8 %), Cyclobacterium lianum HY9T (95.8 %), C. marinum DSM 745T (93.2 %) and C. amurskyense KMM6143T (92.6 %) form a distinct lineage from other members of the genus Cyclobacterium . The DNA G+C content of strain HMD3055T was 45.6 mol%. On the basis of the evidence presented in this study, it is concluded that strain HMD3055T represents a novel species of the genus Cyclobacterium , for which the name Cyclobacterium jeungdonense sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HMD3055T ( = KCTC 23150T = CECT 7706T)., language=, type=
