abstract= Strain KF707T was isolated from a biphenyl-contaminated site in Kitakyushu, Japan. Analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences, retrieved from the whole-genome sequence, revealed that the isolate was closely related to members of the genus Pseudomonas , sharing the highest sequence similarities with Pseudomonas balearica strain SP1402T (DSM 6083) (97.8 %). The DNA G+C chromosome and plasmid content of strain KF707T were 65.5 and 60.5 mol%. The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 :  0 and C16 : 1ω7c/C16 : 1ω6c. Polyphasic analysis indicated that strain KF707T represents a novel species of the genus Pseudomonas , for which the name Pseudomonas furukawaii sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KF707T (=DSM 10086T=NBRC 110670T).,
