Abstract

Root nodule bacteria were isolated from Tul. grown in soils from the Amazon region, State of Roraima (Brazil). 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis of seven strains (BR 10247, BR 10296, BR 10297, BR 10298, BR 10299, BR 10300 and BR 10301) placed them in the genus with the closest neighbours being the type strains of (98.8 % similarity), (98.8 %), (98.7 %), (98.6 %), (98.6 %), (98.6 %) and (98.3 %). This high similarity, however, was not confirmed by the intergenic transcribed spacer (ITS) 16S–23S rRNA region sequence analysis nor by multi-locus sequence analysis. Phylogenetic analyses of five housekeeping genes (, , , and ) revealed EK05 ( = LMG 24129) to be the most closely related type strain (95.7 % sequence similarity or less). Chemotaxonomic data, including fatty acid profiles [major components being C and summed feature 8 (18 : 1ω6/18 : 1ω7)], DNA G+C content, slow growth rate and carbon compound utilization patterns, supported the placement of the novel strains in the genus . Results of DNA–DNA relatedness studies and physiological data (especially carbon source utilization) differentiated the strains from the closest recognized species of the genus . Symbiosis-related genes for nodulation () and nitrogen fixation () placed the novel species in a new branch within the genus . Based on the current data, these seven strains represent a novel species for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is BR 10247 ( = HAMBI 3599).
