Abstract

Five Gram-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterial strains were isolated from cankers of collected from different locations in Puyang city, Henan Province, China. The five strains were characterized by nutritional and physiological testing and DNA sequence analysis. Haemolysis was not observed on agar media supplemented with sheep erythrocytes. The strains could be distinguished from members of most species of the genus by their inability to assimilate -arginine and benzoate. The five strains formed a single branch in phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA, and individual gene sequence analysis, indicating that they all belonged to a single taxon within the genus . DNA–DNA hybridization results indicated that the five isolates represented to a single species that was separate from . On the basis of the phenotypic, genotypic and phylogenetic characteristics, the five strains are considered to represent a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of sp. nov. is PBJ7 (CFCC 11170 = KCTC 42272).
