Growth was observed at NaCl concentrations of 0.5–3.5 % (w/v) (optimum, 1.5–2.0 %), temperatures of 10–35 °C (optimum, 28 °C) and pH 5.0–9.0 (optimum, 6.5). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that F30T represented a member of the genus Chryseobacterium , showing the highest similarity to Chryseobacterium jejuense DSM 19299T (99.0 %) and Chryseobacterium nakagawai NCTC 13529T (99.0 %), and less than 98.7 % similarity to other species of the genus Chryseobacterium with validly published names. The average nucleotide identity and in silico DNA–DNA hybridization values between F30T and the reference strains were 78.4–90.5 % and 2.6–42.5 %, respectively. The results of chemotaxonomic analysis indicated that the fatty acids, as well as the polar lipid profiles of F30T were similar to those of species of the genus Chryseobacterium , and the sole respiratory quinone was MK-6. On the basis of its phylogenetic, chemotaxonomic and phenotypic data, strain F30T represents a novel species, for which the name Chryseobacterium aurantiacum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is F30T (=KCTC 62135T=MCCC 1K03457T).", }
