Abstract

A non-motile, rod-shaped and aerobic marine bacterium, designated strain KYW314, was isolated from seawater collected from the South Sea, Republic of Korea. Cells were Gram-negative, catalase- and oxidase-positive and had proteolytic activity. The major fatty acids were iso-C (17.2 %), C (11.1 %), iso-C (10.5 %) and C 7 (10.0 %). The DNA G+C content was 56.4 mol%. A phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain KYW314 formed a lineage within the genus (95.4–97.3 % sequence similarity) and a distinct branch within the clade containing PIT1 and c121. Phenotypic characteristics could distinguish strain KYW314 from members of the genus On the basis of the data presented, strain KYW314 represents a novel species, for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KYW314 (=KCTC 22740 =JCM 16344).
