Fulvivirga lutimaris sp. nov., isolated from a tidal flat sediment Jung, Yong-Taek and Ha, Min-Ji and Park, Sooyeon and Lee, Jung-Sook and Yoon, Jung-Hoon,, 66, 2604-2609 (2016), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/ijsem.0.001085, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1466-5026, abstract= A Gram-stain-negative, non-flagellated, non-gliding and rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated TM-6T, was isolated from a tidal flat sediment in the Korean peninsula. Strain TM-6T was found to grow optimally at pH 7.0–8.0, at 30 °C and in the presence of 2–3% (w/v) NaCl. A neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain TM-6T joined the clade comprising recognized species of the genus Fulvivirga , with which it exhibited 94.7– 95.2 % sequence similarity. Strain TM-6T was found to contain iso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 1 G and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH as major fatty acids. The only isoprenoid quinone was menaquinone-7 (MK-7). The major polar lipids were identified as phosphatidylethanolamine and three unidentified lipids. The DNA G+C content of strain TM-6T was 50.9 mol%. Differential phenotypic properties, together with the phylogenetic distinctiveness, revealed that strain TM-6T is distinguishable from recognized Fulvivirgaspecies. On the basis of the data presented, strain TM-6T is proposed to represent a novel species of the genus Fulvivirga , for which the name Fulvivirga lutimaris sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is TM-6T (=KCTC 42720T=CECT 9024T)., language=, type=
