Strain DCY49T contained MK-7 as the predominant menaquinone. The major fatty acids were summed feature 3 (containing C16 : 1ω7c, C16 : 1ω6c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH), iso-C15 : 0, iso-C17 : 0 3-OH and C16 : 0, and the main polar lipid was phosphatidylethanolamine. The G+C content of the genomic DNA of strain DCY49T was 40.5 mol%. Strain DCY49T differed from related Pedobacter species by a number of phenotypic characteristics. On the basis of data from the present polyphasic study, strain DCY49T is described as representing a novel species of the genus Pedobacter , for which the name Pedobacter ginsengiterrae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DCY49T ( = KCTC 23317T = JCM 17338T).", }
