Hymenobacter rubripertinctus sp. nov., isolated from Antarctic tundra soil Jiang, Fan and Danzeng, Wangmu and Zhang, Yuming and Zhang, Yan and Jiang, Li and Liu, Jia and Lu, Lu and Fan, Wei and Peng, Fang,, 68, 663-668 (2018), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/ijsem.0.002563, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1466-5026, abstract= A red-pigmented, Gram-reaction-negative, aerobic, non-motile and rod-shaped bacterium, designated NY03-3-30T, was isolated from a soil sample collected from Inexpressible Island, Northern Victoria Land of the Antarctic Ross Orogen, and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. Growth occurred at 4–28 °C (optimum 20 °C) and at pH 6.0–9.0 (optimum pH 7.0). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain NY03-3-30T belonged to the genus Hymenobacter in the family Cytophagaceae . 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities between strain NY03-3-30T and the type strains of Hymenobacter species with validly published names ranged from 92.7 to 96.2 %. Strain NY03-3-30T contained summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c and/or C16 : 1ω6c), iso-C15 : 0, C16 : 0, C16 : 1 ω5c, anteiso-C15 : 0 and summed feature 4 (iso-C17 : 1-I and/or anteiso-C17 : 1-B) as major cellular fatty acids, MK-7 as the respiratory quinone and phosphatidylethanolamine as the main polar lipid. The DNA G+C content of strain NY03-3-30T was 59.4 mol%. On the basis of phylogenetic, physiological and chemotaxonomic data, strain NY03-3-30T is considered to represent a novel species of genus Hymenobacter , for which the name Hymenobacter rubripertinctus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NY03-3-30T (=CCTCC AB 2017095T=KCTC 62163T)., language=, type=
