Abstract

A bacterial strain, designated as ZFJT-2, was isolated from the stem of Jacq. collected from Taibai Mountain in Shaanxi Province, north-west China. Cells of strain ZFJT-2 were Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, rod-shaped and motile by means of a single polar flagellum. The major fatty acids were summed feature 8 (comprising C 7 and/or C 6), C, 11-methyl C 7 and summed feature 3 (comprising C 7 and/or C 6), and the DNA G+C content was 58.3 mol% (HPLC). Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain ZFJT-2 was a member of the genus and was most closely related to KACC 10720 (98.6 % similarity) and CCBAU 83011 (98.5 %). The low levels of sequence similarity found between the , and gene sequences of strain ZFJT-2 and those of recognized species of the genus (no more than 94.4, 87.2 and 89.5 %, respectively) indicated that it may represent a separate species of the genus . The DNA–DNA relatedness values for strain ZFJT-2 with respect to KACC 10720 and CCBAU 83011 were 17.6 and 41.9 %, respectively. On the basis of phenotypic, phylogenetic and genotypic data, strain ZFJT-2 is considered to represent a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is ZFJT-2 (=CCTCC AB 2013015=KCTC 32301=LMG 27603).
