Sediminibacterium aquarii sp. nov., isolated from sediment in a fishbowl Kim, Yonghoon and Kim, Bobae and Kang, Keunsoo and Ahn, Tae-Young,, 66, 4501-4505 (2016), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/ijsem.0.001380, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1466-5026, abstract= A novel bacterial strain, designated AA5T, was isolated from sediment in a fishbowl. Cells were Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped and strictly aerobic, showing gliding motility. Strain AA5T was able to grow at 15–37 °C, at pH 5.0–8.0 and in the absence of NaCl. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain AA5T was most closely related to species in the genus Sediminibacterium , showing highest similarity to the type strain of S.ediminibacterium goheungense (96.6 %). Concordantly, a phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain AA5T belongs to the genus Sediminibacterium . The DNA G+C content was 44.7 mol%. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, four unidentified aminolipids, two unknown aminophospholipids and four unidentified polar lipids. The only respiratory quinone of strain AA5T was menaquinone 7 (MK-7) and the major fatty acids (>5 % of the total) were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 1 G, iso-C16 : 0 3-OH, iso-C17 : 0 3-OH and iso-C15 : 0 3-OH. Based on data from this polyphasic study, strain AA5T represents a novel species, for which the name Sediminibacterium aquarii sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is AA5T (=KACC 18509T=JCM 31013T)., language=, type=
