Phylogenetic trees based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that the novel strain was a member of the genus Gryllotalpicola , showing more than 97.0 % sequence similarity with Gryllotalpicola daejeonensis RU-04T (98.0 %), Gryllotalpicola koreensis RU-16T (97.7 %) and Gryllotalpicola kribbensis PU-02T (97.3 %). However, DNA–DNA relatedness values demonstrated that strain KIS12-7T could be clearly distinguished from closely related species of the genus Gryllotalpicola . The cell-wall peptidoglycan of strain KIS12-7T was of the type B2 and the acyl type was acetyl. The predominant menaquinones were MK-11 and MK-10. Polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, one unknown phosphoglycolipid, one unknown glycolipid, one unknown phospholipid and one unknown lipid. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 72.1 mol%. On the basis of the evidence presented, strain KIS12-7T is a representative of a novel species of the genus Gryllotalpicola , and the name Gryllotalpicola soli sp. nov. is proposed; the type strain is KIS12-7T ( = DSM 27182T = KACC 17302T = NBRC 109659T)., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijs.0.067710-0
