Abstract

A Gram-stain-negative, motile by gliding, rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated SOJ2014-1 was isolated from surface water of a polynya in the Antarctic Ocean. A comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain SOJ2014-1 belongs to the genus and is most closely related to DSM 3653 (97.5 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity). The G+C content of the genomic DNA of strain SOJ2014-1 was 38.8 mol%. Its predominant cellular fatty acids were summed feature 3 (composed of Cω6 and/or Cω7), iso-C 3-OH, iso-C, iso-C G and summed feature 9 (composed of iso-Cω9 and/or 10-methyl C). DNA–DNA relatedness between strain SOJ2014-1 and close relatives, DSM 3653 and LMG 22550, was below 49 %. The respiratory quinone was MK-6. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminolipid and two unidentified lipids. The strain grew at 0–35 °C (optimum, 25 °C) with 0–14.0 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 1.0–5.0 %). It was strictly aerobic and had different carbohydrate utilization traits compared with DSM 3653. Based on the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic analyses, strain SOJ2014-1 is proposed as a representative of a novel species, . The type strain is SOJ2014-1 ( = KCTC 42185 = JCM 30387).
