Abstract

A Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, white bacterium, designated strain T16R-88, was isolated from a rhizosphere soil sample collected in Buyeo-gun of Chungcheongnam-do, South Korea. A phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain T16R-88 formed a lineage within the genus . It showed highest sequence similarities to Gsoil 104 (97.4 %), J22 (97.2 %), NWG-II14 (97.1 %), THG-G12 (97.1 %) and Gsoil 042 (97.0 %). The predominant respiratory quinone was menaquinone MK-7. The major cellular fatty acids (>10 % of the total fatty acids) were summed feature 3 (iso-C 2-OH and/or C 7), iso-C 3-OH and iso-C. The polar lipids consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine, sphingolipid, one unidentified aminophospholipid, three unidentified aminolipids, three unidentified lipids and one unidentified phospholipid. DNA–DNA hybridization values between strain T16R-88 and its most closely related species were below 70 %. The DNA G+C content was 35.6 mol%. On the basis of the evidence presented in this study, strain T16R-88 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is T16R-88 (=KACC 18652=NBRC 111984).
