Jiulongibacter sediminis gen. nov., sp. nov., a new member of the family Cytophagaceae, isolated from the surface sediment of the Jiulong River in China Liu, Yang and Du, Juan and Lai, Qiliang and Dong, Chunming and Xie, Yanrong and Shao, Zongze,, 66, 2347-2353 (2016), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/ijsem.0.001038, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1466-5026, abstract= A bacterial strain, designated JN14-9T, was isolated from surface sediment of the Jiulong River and characterized in a taxonomic study using a polyphasic approach. Strain JN14-9T was Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped and orange-pigmented. It can grow at 15–37 °C (optimum 25–30 °C), at pH 7–8 (optimum pH 7) and in 2–6 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum 3–4 %). Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain JN14-9T formed an independent lineage related to the family Cytophagaceae with low 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities (<92.5 %) to members of other genera with validly published names. The principal fatty acids of strain JN14-9T were summed feature 3 (C16:1ω6c/C16:1ω7c) and iso-C15:0. The isoprenoid quinone was identified as MK-7. The major polar lipids comprised diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, three aminophospholipids and five unidentified phospholipids. The DNA G+C content was 41.6 mol%. Results of phenotypic, phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic analyses clearly indicate that strain JN14-9T represents a novel species of a new genus within the family Cytophagaceae , for which the name Jiulongibacter sediminis gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of the type species is JN14-9T (=MCCC 1A00733T=KCTC 42153T)., language=, type=
