Abstract

A Gram-stain-positive, strictly aerobic and rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain XA, was isolated from the moss, , and characterized by using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The novel strain was non-spore-forming, non-motile, catalase-positive and oxidase-negative. Its optimal temperature for growth occurred at 28–30 °C and the optimum pH for growth was 7.0–7.5. The major fatty acids comprised anteiso-C, iso-C, ω-cyclohexyl-C and anteiso-C. The polar lipids contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, seven unidentified glycolipids, one unidentified phospholipid and one unidentified lipid. The major menaquinone was MK-11, followed by MK-10 and MK-12. The peptidoglycan type was B2γ and contained the amino acids 2,4-diaminobutyric acid, alanine, glycine, 3-hydroxy-glutamic acid and small amounts of glutamic acid. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain XA was 68.2 mol%. Strain XA exhibited highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with 2Sb (96.3 %) and D7-27 (96.2 %). However, phylogenetic analyses showed that strain XA did not cluster with any species of the genera , or other genera of the family and the phylum . Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analyses, and the phenotypic and chemotaxonomic data, strain XA is considered to represent a novel species of a novel genus, for which the name gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is XA ( = CGMCC 1.15041 = DSM 29843).
