Trinickia dinghuensis sp. nov. and Trinickia fusca sp. nov., isolated from forest soil Gao, Zeng-hong and Zhong, Shu-fen and Qin, Yi-ning and Yang, Zi and Lv, Ying-ying and Qiu, Li-hong,, 69, 1390-1397 (2019), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/ijsem.0.003324, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1466-5026, abstract= Two Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-spore forming and rod-shaped bacterial strains, designated DHOM06T and 7MK8-2T, were isolated from forest soil sampled at Dinghushan Biosphere Reserve, Guangdong Province, PR China. Strain DHOM06T grew at 12–37 °C (optimum, 28–33 °C), pH 4.5–7.5 (pH 5.5) and in the presence of 0–0.5 % NaCl (w/v); while strain 7MK8-2T grew at 12–42 °C (28–33 °C), pH 4.0–8.5 (pH 4.5–5.5) and in the presence of 0–1.0 % NaCl (w/v). Strains DHOM06T and 7MK8-2T each has a 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 97.1–98.9 % as well as 97.4–97.9 % to Trinickia strains, respectively. In the 16S rRNA gene sequence phylogram, both strains and all five currently described Trinickia species formed a clade but they were all distinct from each other. The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values for strains DHOM06T and 7MK8-2T and all Trinickia species were in the range of 77.4–82.6 % and 21.7–26.2 %, respectively. The DNA G+C content of DHOM06T and 7MK8-2T was 63.2 and 63.5 mol%, respectively, based on total genome calculations. These two strains contained ubiquinone 8 as the major respiratory quinone and C16 : 0, C17 : 0cyclo, C19 : 0cyclo ω8c, summed feature 3 (C16 : 1 ω7c/C16 : 1 ω6c) and summed feature 8 (C18 : 1 ω7c/C18 : 1 ω6c) as the major cellular fatty acids. The major polar lipids of DHOM06T and 7MK8-2T were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol. On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, phylogenetic and genomic analysis data, strains DHOM06T and 7MK8-2T represent two novel species of the genus Trinickia , for which the names Trinickia dinghuensis sp. nov. (type strain DHOM06T=GDMCC 1.1280T=LMG 30259T) and Trinickia fusca sp. nov. (type strain 7MK8-2T=GDMCC 1.1449T=KCTC 62469T) are proposed., language=, type=
