Abstract

A yellow-coloured bacterial strain, designated ZY74, was isolated from arsenic contaminated soil (34 mg kg) sample collected in Longkou, Hubei Province, PR China. Cells were Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile and rod-shaped. Strain ZY74 produced round, yellow-pigmented, smooth and opaque colonies. Based on the results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain ZY74 was found to be affiliated with members of the genus Chitinophaga . Its closest members were Chitinophagabarathri YLT18 (97.72 %) and Chitinophaganiabensis JS13-10 (97.17 %). The genome size of strain ZY74 was 6.61 Mb, containing 5351 predicted protein-coding genes, with a DNA G+C content of 55.0 mol%. The average nucleotide identity values of strain ZY74 with C. barathri YLT18 and C. niabensis DSM 24787 were 76.12 and 73.32 %, respectively. The digital DNA–DNA hybridization values of strain ZY74 with C. barathri YLT18 and C. niabensis JS13-10 were 20.60 and 19.40 %, respectively. The major respiratory quinone was menaquinone 7 and the predominant fatty acids (>5 %) were iso-C15:0, C16 : 1ω5c and iso-C17 : 03-OH. On the basis of phylogenetic, genotypic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characterization, strain ZY74 represents a novel species in the genus Chitinophaga , for which the name Chitinophaga lutea sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is ZY74 (=CCTCC AB2018369=KCTC 72039).
