Abstract

Two bacterial strains (JC130 and JA747) were isolated from dry soils of a solar saltern. Phylogenetic analysis showed that strain JA747 clustered with species of the genus belonging to the family of the class in the phylum , while strain JC130 clustered with species of the genus belonging to the family of the phylum . Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain JA747 had highest similarity with K7-2 (96.7 %) and other members of the genus (<96 %). Strain JC130 had highest sequence similarity with X14-1 (98.1 %), KMM 6156 (96.9 %) and other members of the genus (<96 %). However, strain JC130 showed less than 32 % DNA reassociation value (based on DNA–DNA hybridization) with NRRL B-51097 ( = X14-1) and LMG 23027 ( = KMM 6156). Strain JA747 was positive for catalase and oxidase activity and negative for nitrate reduction, and hydrolysis of starch and casein. Phosphatidylglycerol, diphostatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine were the major polar lipids for strain JA747. Cω7, Cω6/Cω7, Cω6 and C were the major fatty acids of strain JA747. Strain JC130 was positive for catalase and oxidase, and negative for gelatinase and nitrate reduction. Phosphatidylethanolamine was the major polar lipid of strain JC130. Major fatty acids of strain JC130 were iso-C and summed feature 4 (anteiso-CB/iso I). Based on the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and molecular evidence presented, strains JA747 and JC130 are considered to represent two novel species of the genera and , for which the names sp. nov. (type strain JA747 = KCTC 23981 = NBRC 108930) and sp. nov. (type strain JC130 = KCTC 23982 = LMG 26962), respectively, are proposed. Emended descriptions of the genera and are provided.
