Abstract

A Gram-stain-positive, oxidase- and catalase-positive, endospore-forming, aerobic, non-motile and rod-shaped bacterium (THG-YT1) was isolated from green tea. Growth occurred at 10–40 °C (optimum, 25–30 °C), at pH 6–8 (optimum, 7) and at 0–2 % NaCl (optimum, 0 %). Based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, phylogenetic analyses showed that strain THG-YT1 formed a distinct lineage with respect to closely related genera in the family . Strain THG-YT1 was most closely related to the genera within the families , , and , with levels of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to the type species of members of these genera of less than 95.0 %. The menaquinone was MK-7. The polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, two unidentified aminophospholipids, two unidentified aminolipids and two unidentified glycolipids. The major fatty acids of strain THG-YT1 were C 7 and -C. The cell-wall peptidoglycan type was A1γ with -diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid plus alanine and glutamic acid. The cell-wall sugar was glucose. The DNA G+C content of strain THG-YT1 was determined to be 53.5 mol%. Based on the data presented here, strain THG-YT1 represents a novel species of a new genus of the family , for which the name gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is THG-YT1(=KACC 19471=CGMCC 1.16306).
