abstract= A Gram-stain-negative bacterium, designated SP-35T, was isolated from compost and was subjected to a taxonomic study. This isolate was short-rod-shaped and non-spore-forming. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA sequence comparison indicated the isolate was related to the genus Comamonas . 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that its closest neighbours were the type strains Comamonas odontotermitis Dant 3-8T (96.8 % similarity), Comamonas testosteroni DSM 50244T (96.5 %), Comamonas guangdongensis CY01T (95.9 %) and Comamonas composti YY287T (95.6 %). Using phylogenetic analysis, DNA–DNA hybridization, fatty acid composition data and a range of physiological and biochemical characteristics we could clearly distinguish strain SP-35T from type strains of the genus Comamonas . The genomic DNA G+C content of strain SP-35T was 63.1 mol%. The predominant cellular fatty acids were C16 : 0, C17 : 0 cyclo, summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω6c and/or C16 : 1ω7c) and summed feature 8 (C18 : 1ω6c and/or C18 : 1ω7c). The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidlyglycerol. Differences in phenotypic and phylogenetic characteristics support the classification of strain SP-35T as a representative of a novel species in the genus Comamonas , for which the name Comamonas serinivorans sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SP-35T ( = DSM 26136T = JCM 18194T).,
