It grew optimally at 28–33 °C and pH 7.0–7.5. The main fatty acids were C16 : 0, C17 : 0 cyclo, C19 : 0 cycloω8c, summed feature 2 (C12 : 0 aldehyde and/or unknown 10.9525) and summed feature 8 (C18 : 1ω7c and/or C18 : 1ω6c). The organism contained ubiquinone Q-8 as the predominant isoprenoid quinone. The total DNA G+C content of strain DHOK13T was 62.0 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene, as well as the sequence of the partial housekeeping genes, gyrB and recA, showed consistently that strain DHOK13T formed an independent cluster with Paraburkholderia phenazinium LMG 2247T. DNA-DNA hybridization studies showed relatively low relatedness values (39 %) of strain DHOK13T with P. phenazinium LMG 2247T. The phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data showed that strain DHOK13T represents a novel species of the genus Paraburkholderia for which the name Paraburkholderia pallidirosea sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DHOK13T (=KCTC 42626T=LMG 28846T). %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijsem.0.001387
