sp. nov., a marine alphaproteobacterium isolated from seawater, and emended description of the genus Free

Abstract

A Gram-reaction-negative, S-shaped, motile, poly-β-hydroxybutyrate-accumulating, facultatively anaerobic, beige-pigmented bacterium, designated strain KMU-80, was isolated from seawater collected from the Republic of Korea. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that the novel isolate was affiliated with the family , of the class , and that it possessed the greatest sequence similarity (96.7 %) to NBRC 13613. The DNA G+C content of KMU-80 was 48.3 mol%, and ubiquinone 10 was the sole respiratory quinone. The predominant cellular fatty acids consisted of C 7 (60.2 %), C (13.4 %) and C 7 and/or C 6 (11.1 %). Strain KMU-80 had phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, an unidentified aminolipid, an unidentified phospholipid and four unidentified lipids as polar lipids. Based on its distinct phylogenetic position and the combination of genotypic and phenotypic characteristics, this strain is considered to represent a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of sp. nov. is KMU-80 (= KCCM 90274 = NBRC 112846). An amended description of the genus is also provided.
