Abstract

A novel Gram-stain-negative, facultatively anaerobic, filamentous, and yellowish-white-pigmented marine bacterium, designated strain FB208, was isolated from marine sediment obtained off the coastal area of Weihai, China. Cells of strain FB208 were filamentous during exponential growth, fragmented to rods in the stationary growth phase and became spherical in aged cultures. It grew optimally at 33 °C, at pH 7.0–7.5 and in the presence of 2.0–3.0 % (w/v) NaCl. Based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence, strain FB208 was found to be closely related to DSM 21950 (96.9 % similarity) and JCM 15579 (96.4 %), with less than 90.0 % sequence similarity to other genera of the class . Phylogenetic analysis, also based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, placed strain FB208 in the genus , family . The predominant isoprenoid quinone of strain FB208 was identified as menaquinone MK-7. The main cellular fatty acids were iso-C, iso-C 3-OH and iso-C 9, and the major polar lipids were an unidentified lipid and aminophospholipid. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 43.8 mol%. Based on these phylogenetic and phenotypic data, strain FB208 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is FB208 (=KCTC 42591=MCCC 1H00113).
