Growth occurred at 10–37 °C (optimum, 30 °C), at pH 6–7 and in the presence of 0–1 % (w/v) (optimum, 0 %) NaCl. Flexirubin-type pigments were produced. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, strain T1-10T was assigned to the genus Taibaiella of the phylum Bacteroidetes , and the most closely related species was Taibaiella koreensis THG-DT86T with 97.11 % sequence similarity, but the strain formed an independent lineage in the phylogenetic tree. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain T1-10T was 42.5 mol%. The main cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 : 1 G, iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH. The only isoprenoid quinone detected in the strain was MK-7, and the major polyamine was homospermidine. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine and unidentified aminophospholipids. Strain T1-10T could be distinguished from related species by physiological and biochemical properties. Phenotypic and phylogenetic data supported that strain T1-10T represents a novel species of the genus Taibaiella , for which the name Taibaiella soli sp. nov. is proposed (type strain T1-10T=KCTC 42277T=JCM 31014T). %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijsem.0.001172
