Abstract

A novel, red–pink-pigmented strain, designated R2-4, was isolated from a till sample near Ny-Alesund, Svalbard Archipelago, Norway. Cells were aerobic, Gram-stain-negative and rod-shaped. Growth occurred at 4–30 °C (optimum, 20–22 °C), at pH 6.0–9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0) and with 0–1 % NaCl added to R2A agar. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain R2-4 belonged to the genus . 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between strain R2-4 and the type strains of related species of the genus ranged from 94.51 to 96.05 %. Strain R2-4 contained iso-C, anteiso-C, summed feature 3 (Cω6 and/or Cω7), summed feature 4 (C anteiso B and/or iso I) and Cω5 as the major cellular fatty acids, MK-7 as the major respiratory quinone, and phosphatidylethanolamine, unknown aminophospholipids, unknown aminolipids and unknown lipids as the main polar lipids. The polyamine was -homospermidine. The DNA G+C content of strain R2-4 was 61.6 mol%. On the basis of phylogenetic, physiological and chemotaxonomic data, strain R2-4 is considered to represent a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is R2-4 ( = CCTCC AB 2012104 = KACC 16881).
