Abstract

A Gram-negative, rod-shaped, aerobic bacterial strain, designated EBTL01, was isolated from activated sludge by using metabolites of microalgae SAG278-2. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that strain EBTL01 belongs to the family , class , and is related most closely to A4T-83 (95.5 % sequence similarity) and A5J-41-2 (95.2 %). The G+C content of the genomic DNA of strain EBTL01 was 56.3 mol% and the menaquinone MK-9 was detected as the predominant quinone. Major fatty acid components were iso-C, Cω7 and C. The amino acids of the cell-wall peptidoglycan contained muramic acid and -diaminopimelic acid. These profile results supported the affiliation of strain EBTL01 to the genus . On the other hand, based on chemotaxonomic properties and phenotypic characteristics, strain EBTL01 could be clearly differentiated from its phylogenetic neighbours. Therefore, strain EBTL01 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is EBTL01 ( = KCTC 23678 = JCM 18052).
