Niastella vici sp. nov., isolated from farmland soil Chen, Lu and Wang, Dan and Yang, Sining and Wang, Gejiao,, 66, 1768-1772 (2016), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/ijsem.0.000943, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1466-5026, abstract= Strain DJ57T is a Gram-reaction-negative, filamentous-shaped, non-flagellated, aerobic bacterium isolated from farmland soil in Hunan province of China. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis demonstrated that this isolate belonged to the genus Niastella, with 95.83 % nucleotide identity to Niastella populi THYL-44T, while the similarities to other type strains of species of the genus Niastella were less than 95.76 %. The major isoprenoid quinone was menaquinone-7 and the major fatty acids (>5 %) were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C17 : 0 3-OH, iso-C15 : 1 G, anteiso-C15 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0. The DNA G+C content was 44 mol%. Polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, three unknown aminophospholipids, three unknown phospholipids and six unknown lipids. The chemotaxonomic, phenotypic and genotypic data indicated that strain DJ57T represents a novel species of the genus Niastella, for which the name Niastella vici sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DJ57T ( = KCTC 42474T = CCTCC AB 2015052T)., language=, type=
