sp. nov., isolated from a show cave Free

Abstract

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile, non-spore-forming bacterium, strain 0511ARD5E5, was isolated from an air sample collected in Ardales Cave (Malaga, Spain). Strain 0511ARD5E5 grew at 4–37 °C and in the presence of 0–4 % (w/v) NaCl [optimally at 25 °C and with 1 % (w/v) NaCl]. Cells were catalase- and oxidase-positive. The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone-10. The predominant fatty acids were C 7 and C. The DNA G+C content was 63.2 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain 0511ARD5E5 was a member of the genus and was related most closely to DSM 8538 and CIP 108500(96.93 and 96.92 % similarity, respectively). Strain 0511ARD5E5 exhibited DNA–DNA relatedness of 47 % to DSM 8538 and 31 % to CIP 108500. Chemotaxonomic, phenotypic and phylogenetic analyses indicated that strain 0511ARD5E5 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 0511ARD5E5 (=LMG 27962=CECT 8482).
