A Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, motile, rod-shaped, endospore-forming bacterium, designated strain R55T, was isolated from the liverwort Herbertus sendtneri growing at Gawalong glacier, Tibet, and characterized by using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The major fatty acids of strain R55T were anteiso-C15 : 0, C16 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0. Diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol were the predominant polar lipids and occurred along with two unidentified aminophospholipids, one unidentified phospholipid and one unidentified aminolipid. Strain R55T contained MK-7 as the dominant menaquinone and meso-diaminopimelic acid as the major diagnostic diamino acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 36.9 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain R55T was affiliated to species of the genus Paenibacillus, and was related most closely to Paenibacillus ferrarius CY1T (97.1 % similarity). However, the DNA–DNA relatedness between this strain and strain R55T was only 44.1 %. Based on phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic properties, strain R55T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Paenibacillus, for which the name Paenibacillus marchantiophytorum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is R55T ( = CGMCC 1.15043T = DSM 29850T).
-
The GenBank accession numbers for the 16S rRNA and rpoB gene sequences of strain R55T are KP056549 and KP069474, respectively. The GenBank accession number for the rpoB gene sequence of Paenibacillus ferrarius CCTCC AB 2013369T ( = CY1T) is KT267165.
