sp. nov., isolated from marine surface sediment Free

Abstract

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, yellow-coloured, motile by gliding, rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated R17H11, was isolated from surface sediment collected from the Ross Sea, Antarctica. Growth optimally occurred at 25–30 °C, at pH 7.0–7.5 and in the presence of 3 % NaCl (w/v). Phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain R17H11 clustered together with JLT2011 and fell within the genus . Strain R17H11 shared the highest 16S rRNA gene similarities (96.1 and 96.0 %) with the type strains of and , and 92.6–95.5 % similarities with those of other known species. Strain R17H11 contained menaquinone-6 as the only isoprenoid quinone. The major fatty acids (>5 %) were summed feature 3 (17.5 %, comprising C 7 and/or C 6), iso-C (14.0 %), summed feature 9 (11.8 %, comprising 10-methyl C and/or iso-C 9), iso-C 3-OH (11.8 %), iso-C (7.4 %), C 6 (6.9 %) and anteiso-C (5.1 %). The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, four unidentified lipids, an unidentified aminolipid, an unidentified aminophospholipid and an unidentified glycolipid. The DNA G+C content of strain R17H11 was 38.6 mol%. On the basis of the phylogenetic, physiological and chemotaxonomic characteristics, strain R17H11 represents a novel species in the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of the novel species is R17H11 (=GDMCC 1.1208=KCTC 52925).
