Abstract

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile bacterium, designated strain 10-7W-9003, was isolated from the forest soil of Limushan National Forest Park, south-east China (19° 10′ 42″ N, 109° 44′ 45″ E). Strain 10-7W-9003 showed a shape change during the course of culture from long filamentous cells (5–10×0.4–0.5 µm) at 5–36 h, to rod shaped (1.0–1.5×0.5–0.7 µm) with inoculation after 2 days. It grew optimally at 28–30 °C and pH 6.5–7.5. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, it belongs to the genus and is most closely related to KACC 13774 and JCM 30026, with 16S rRNA gene sequences similarities of 98.8 and 98.3 %, respectively. However, the DNA–DNA hybridization study showed that strain 10-7W-9003 shared relatively low relatedness values with KACC 13774 (21.8 %) and JCM 30026 (20.4 %), respectively. The major fatty acids (>10 %) were iso-C, Cω5 and iso-C 3-OH. The genomic DNA G+C content was 50.7 mol%. It contained MK-7 as the major quinone. The phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data clearly showed that strain 10-7W-9003 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 10-7W-9003 (=GDMCC 1.1252=KACC 19415=KCTC 52926).
