Abstract

A novel marine, Gram-stain-negative, oxidase- and catalase- positive, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain AK6, was isolated from marine aquaculture pond water collected in Andhra Pradesh, India. The fatty acids were dominated by iso-C, iso-Cω9, iso-C G, iso-C 3-OH and anteiso-C. Strain AK6 contained MK-7 as the sole respiratory quinone and phosphatidylethanolamine, one unidentified aminophospholipid, one unidentified phospholipid and seven unidentified lipids as polar lipids. The DNA G+C content of strain AK6 was 45.6 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis showed that strain AK6 formed a distinct branch within the family and clustered with DSM 16537 and other members of the family . 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis confirmed that DSM 16537 was the nearest neighbour, with pairwise sequence similarity of 90.1 %, while sequence similarity with the other members of the family was <88.5 %. Based on differentiating phenotypic characteristics and phylogenetic inference, strain AK6 is proposed as a representative of a new genus and species of the family , as gen. nov., sp. nov. The type strain of is AK6 ( = MTCC 11279 = JCM 17389). Emended descriptions of the genus and are also proposed.
