The species Mesorhizobim loti was isolated from nodules of Lotus corniculatus and its type strain deposited in several collections. Some of these type strains, such as those deposited in the USDA and ATCC collections before 1990, are not coincident with the original strain, NZP 2213T, deposited in the NZP culture collection. The analysis of the 16S rRNA gene showed that strains USDA 3471T and ATCC 33669T formed independent branches from that occupied by Mesorhizobium loti NZP 2213T and related to those occupied by Mesorhizobium opportunistum WSM2075T and Mesorhizobium huakuii IFO 15243T, respectively, with 99.9 % similarity in both cases. However, the analysis of concatenated recA, atpD and glnII genes with similarities lower than 96, 98 and 94 %, respectively, between strains USDA 3471T and M. opportunistum WSM2075T and between strains ATCC 33669T and M. huakuii IFO 15243T, indicated that the strains USDA 3471T and ATCC 33669T represent different species of the genus Mesorhizobium . These results were confirmed by DNA–DNA hybridization experiments and phenotypic characterization. Therefore, the two strains were reclassified as representatives of the two species Mesorhizobium erdmanii sp. nov. (type strain USDA 3471T = CECT 8631T = LMG 17826t2T) and Mesorhizobium jarvisii sp. nov. (type strain ATCC 33669T = CECT 8632T = LMG 28313T).

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-spore-forming, motile by single polar flagellum and ovoid or rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated JBTF-M23T, was isolated from tidal flat sediment collected from the Yellow Sea, Republic of Korea. Neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain JBTF-M23T fell within the clade comprising the type strains of Pseudoalteromonas species, clustering with the type strains of P. byunsanensis and P. amylolytica . Strain JBTF-M23T exhibited the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity value (98.6 %) to the type strain of P. rubra and sequence similarities of 98.3 and 97.7 % to the type strains of P. byunsanensis and P. amylolytica, respectively. The DNA G+C content of strain JBTF-M23T from genomic sequence data was 41.98 %. The ANI and dDDH values between strain JBTF-M23T and the type strains of P. rubra , P. byunsanensis and P. amylolytica were 71.3–76.6 and 19.4–19.9 %, respectively. Strain JBTF-M23T contained Q-8 as the predominant ubiquinone and C16 : 1  ω7c and/or C16 : 1  ω6c, C16 : 0 and C18 : 1  ω7c as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipids of strain JBTF-M23T were phosphatidylethanolamine and one unidentified aminolipid. Distinguished phenotypic properties, along with the phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, revealed that strain JBTF-M23T is separated from recognized Pseudoalteromonas species. On the basis of the data presented, strain JBTF-M23Tis considered to represent a novel species of the genus Pseudoalteromonas , for which the name Pseudoalteromonas caenipelagi sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is JBTF-M23T(=KACC 19900T=NBRC 113647T).

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, aerobic, curved-to-spiral-rod-shaped bacterium, designated AH-MY2T, was isolated from a tidal flat on Aphae island in the sea to the south-west of South Korea, and its taxonomic position was investigated using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Strain AH-MY2T grew optimally at 30 °C, at pH 7.0–8.0 and in the presence of 2.0 % (w/v) NaCl. Neighbour-joining, maximum-likelihood and maximum-parsimony phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain AH-MY2T clustered with the type strain of Terasakiella pusilla and that this cluster joined the clade comprising the type strains of species of the genus Thalassospira . Strain AH-MY2T exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 90.6 % to the type strain of Terasakiella pusilla and of less than 91.0 % to the type strains of other species with validly published names. Strain AH-MY2T contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone and C18 : 1ω7c as the major fatty acid. The major polar lipids detected in strain AH-MY2T were phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, two unidentified aminolipids and one unidentified glycolipid. The DNA G+C content of strain AH-MY2T was 56.0 mol%. The phylogenetic data and differential chemotaxonomic and other phenotypic properties revealed that strain AH-MY2T represented a novel genus and species within the family Rhodospirillaceae of the class Alphaproteobacteria , for which the name Aestuariispira insulae gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Aestuariispira insulae is AH-MY2T ( = KCTC 32577T = CECT 8488T).

Here, we describe three endosymbiotic bacterial strains isolated from the gills of the shipworm, Bankia setacea (Teredinidae: Bivalvia). These strains, designated as Bs08T, Bs12T and Bsc2T, are Gram-stain-negative, microaerobic, gammaproteobacteria that grow on cellulose and a variety of substrates derived from lignocellulose. Phenotypic characterization, phylogeny based on 16S rRNA gene and whole genome sequence data, amino acid identity and percentage of conserved proteins analyses, show that these strains are novel and may be assigned to the genus Teredinibacter . The three strains may be differentiated and distinguished from other previously described Teredinibacter species based on a combination of four characteristics: colony colour (Bs12T, purple; others beige to brown), marine salt requirement (Bs12T, Bsc2T and Teredinibacter turnerae strains), the capacity for nitrogen fixation (Bs08T and T. turnerae strains) and the ability to respire nitrate (Bs08T). Based on these findings, we propose the names Teredinibacter haidensis sp. nov. (type strain Bs08T=ATCC TSD-121T=KCTC 62964T), Teredinibacter purpureus sp. nov. (type strain Bs12T=ATCC TSD-122T=KCTC 62965T) and Teredinibacter franksiae sp. nov. (type strain Bsc2T=ATCC TSD-123T=KCTC 62966T).

An actinobacterial strain, designated ViU22T, was isolated from a natural uranium-rich soil and was studied using a polyphasic approach. Cells formed orange-pigmented colonies, were rod-shaped, Gram-positive (non-staining method), non-motile and non-spore-forming. This organism grew in 0–4.5 % (w/v) NaCl and at 15–37 °C, with optimal growth occurring in 0.5 % (w/v) NaCl and at 30 °C. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that the strain ViU22T belonged to the genus Microbacterium . It exhibited highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with the type strains of Microbacterium testaceum (98.14 %) and Microbacterium binotii (98.02 %). The DNA–DNA relatedness of strains ViU22T with the most closely related type strains Microbacterium testaceum and Microbacterium binotii DSM 19164T was 20.10 % (±0.70) and 28.05 % (±0.35), respectively. Strain ViU22T possessed a type B2β peptidoglycan with partial substitution of glutamic acid by 3-hydroxy glutamic acid. The major menaquinones were MK-11 and MK-12. Major polar lipids detected in the strain ViU22T were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, an unknown phospholipid and unknown glycolipids. The predominant fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0, a pattern reported for other Microbacterium species. The major cell-wall sugars were galactose, xylose and mannose and the DNA G+C content was 71 mol%. Together, the DNA–DNA hybridization results and the differentiating phenotypic characteristics, showed that strain ViU22T should be classified as the type strain of a novel species within the genus Microbacterium , for which the name Microbacterium lemovicicum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is ViU22T ( = ATCC BAA-2396T = CCUG 62198T = DSM 25044T).

Original Type

The species Rhizobium lupini was isolated from Lupinus nodules and included in the Approved Lists of Bacterial Names in 1980. Nevertheless, on the basis of the analysis of the type strain of this species available in DSMZ, DSM 30140T, whose 16S rRNA gene was identical to that of the type strain of Bradyrhizobium japonicum , R. lupini was considered a later synonym of this species. In this study we confirmed that the strain DSM 30140T belongs to the species B. japonicum , but also that it cannot be the original strain of R. lupini because this species effectively nodulated Lupinus whereas strain DSM 30140T was able to nodulate soybean but not Lupinus. Since the original type strain of R. lupini was deposited into the USDA collection by L. W. Erdman under the accession number USDA 3051T we analysed the taxonomic status of this strain showing that although it belongs to the genus Bradyrhizobium instead of genus Rhizobium , it is phylogenetically distant from B. japonicum and closely related to Bradyrhizobium canariense . The type strains R. lupini USDA 3051T and B. canariense BTA-1T share 16S rRNA, recA and glnII gene sequences with similarities of 99.8 %, 96.5 % and 97.1 %, respectively. They presented a DNA–DNA hybridization value of 36 % and also differed in phenotypic characteristics and slightly in the proportions of some fatty acids. Therefore we propose the reclassification of the species Rhizobium lupini as Bradyrhizobium lupini comb. nov. The type strain is USDA 3051T ( = CECT 8630T = LMG 28514T).

A Gram-negative, non-motile and coccoid, ovoid or rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated MA1-1T, was isolated from a sea squirt (Halocynthia roretzi) collected from the South Sea, Korea. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain MA1-1T is phylogenetically closely related to Litoreibacter species and to Thalassobacter arenae . It exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities of 97.3, 97.1 and 97.3 % to the type strains of Litoreibacter albidus , Litoreibacter janthinus and T. arenae , respectively. Strain MA1-1T contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone and C18 : 1ω7c as the predominant fatty acid. The polar lipid profile of strain MA1-1T was similar to those of the type strains of L. albidus and L. janthinus . T. arenae was found to be phylogenetically and chemotaxonomically more closely related to Litoreibacter species and strain MA1-1T than to Thalassobacter stenotrophicus , the type species of the genus Thalassobacter . The DNA G+C content of strain MA1-1T was 57.9 mol%, and DNA–DNA relatedness to the type strains of the two Litoreibacter species and T. arenae was 9–14 %. Differential phenotypic properties, together with the observed phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, distinguished strain MA1-1T from the two Litoreibacter species and T. arenae . On the basis of the data presented, strain MA1-1T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Litoreibacter , for which the name Litoreibacter meonggei sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is MA1-1T ( = KCTC 23699T  = CCUG 61486T). In this study, it is also proposed that Thalassobacter arenae is reclassified as a member of the genus Litoreibacter , Litoreibacter arenae comb. nov. (type strain GA2-M15T  = DSM 19593T  = KACC 12675T). An emended description of the genus Litoreibacter is also presented.

A Gram-stain-negative, coccoid- or oval-shaped, gliding bacterial strain, designated HDW-31T, belonging to the class Alphaproteobacteria , was isolated from seawater of the Yellow Sea, Korea, and was subjected to a taxonomic study using a polyphasic approach. Strain HDW-31T grew optimally at pH 7.0–8.0, at 30 °C and in the presence of 2–3 % (w/v) NaCl. Neighbour-joining, maximum-likelihood and maximum-parsimony phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain HDW-31T fell within the clade comprising the genus Altererythrobacter , clustering with the type strains of Altererythrobacter luteolus and Altererythrobacter gangjinensis , with which strain HDW-31T exhibited 97.0 and 96.0 % sequence similarity values, respectively. Sequence similarities to the type strains of the other recognized species of the genus Altererythrobacter were 93.5–96.0 %. The DNA G+C content was 57.9 mol% and mean DNA–DNA relatedness between strain HDW-31T and the type strain of A. luteolus was 5.3 %. Strain HDW-31T contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone and summed feature 8 (C18 : 1ω7c and/or C18 : 1ω6c), summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω6c and/or C16 : 1ω7c) and C16 : 0 as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, a sphingoglycolipid, two unidentified glycolipids and an unidentified lipid. Differential phenotypic properties, together with the phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, demonstrated that strain HDW-31T is distinguishable from recognized species of the genus Altererythrobacter . On the basis of the data presented, strain HDW-31T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Altererythrobacter , for which the name Altererythrobacter aestiaquae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HDW-31T ( = KCTC 42006T = CECT 8527T).

Six strains, TKU 25, TKU 28, TKU 30, TKU 31T, TKU 33 and TKU 34, were isolated from the oral cavity of a chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes). Colonies of strains grown on Mitis–Salivarius agar were similar in morphology to that of Streptococcus mutans . The novel strains were Gram-stain-positive, facultatively anaerobic cocci that lacked catalase activity. Analysis of the partial 16S rRNA gene sequences of these isolates showed that the most closely related strain was the type strain of S. mutans (96.4 %). The next closely related strains to the isolates were the type strains of Streptococcus devriesei (94.5 %) and Streptococcus downei (93.9 %). These isolates could be distinguished from S. mutans by inulin fermentation and alkaline phosphatase activity (API ZYM system). The peptidoglycan type of the novel isolates was Glu–Lys–Ala3. Strains were not susceptible to bacitracin. On the basis of phenotypic characterization, partial 16S rRNA gene and two housekeeping gene (groEL and sodA) sequence data, we propose a novel taxon, Streptococcus troglodytae sp. nov.; the type strain is TKU 31T ( = JCM 18038T = DSM 25324T).

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, non-spore-forming, aerobic, rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated DPG-28T, was isolated from seawater on the southern coast of Korea. Strain DPG-28T grew optimally at 30 °C and in the presence of 2 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain DPG-28T formed a coherent cluster with members of the genera Marivita and Gaetbulicola , with which it exhibited sequence similarity values of 97.8–98.5 %. The DNA G+C content of strain DPG-28T was 65.1 mol%. The predominant ubiquinone of strain DPG-28T was ubiquinone-10 (Q-10), consistent with data for the genera Marivita and Gaetbulicola . The cellular fatty acid profiles of strain DPG-28T and the type strains of Marivita cryptomonadis , Marivita litorea and Gaetbulicola byunsanensis were essentially similar in that the common predominant fatty acid was C18 : 1ω7c. Major polar lipids found in strain DPG-28T and the type strains of M. cryptomonadis , M. litorea and G. byunsanensis were phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and an unidentified aminolipid. From these data, it is proposed that Gaetbulicola byunsanensis be reclassified as a member of the genus Marivita , for which the name Marivita byunsanensis comb. nov. is proposed, with the type strain SMK-114T ( = CCUG 57612T  = KCTC 22632T), and that strain DPG-28T be classified in the genus Marivita . Differential phenotypic properties and genetic distinctiveness of strain DPG-28T demonstrated that this strain is distinguishable from M. cryptomonadis , M. litorea and G. byunsanensis . On the basis of the data presented, strain DPG-28T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Marivita , for which the name Marivita hallyeonensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DPG-28T ( = KCTC 23421T  = CCUG 60522T). An emended description of the genus Marivita is also provided.

Two novel strains, designated 92R-1T and 9PBR-1T, were isolated from abandoned lead–zinc ore collected in Meizhou, Guangdong Province, PR China. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that they fell into the genus of Hymenobacte r and formed two distinct lineages. Strain 92R-1T was most closely related to Hymenobacter wooponensis JCM 19491T (98.7 %) and Hymenobacter gelipurpurascens LMG 21873T (98.5 %), while strain 9PBR-1T was most closely related to Hymenobacter chitinivorans LMG 21951T (99.0 %), Hymenobacter elongatus JCM 17223T (98.7 %) and Hymenobacter aquaticus JCM 31653T (98.1 %). Strain 92R-1Tshared average nucleotide identity values of 80.0–83.7 % and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values of 23.1–27.1 % with its closely related type strains, respectively, while strain 9PBR-1T shared corresponding values of 80.3–83.2 % and 23.6–26.7 % with its closely related type strains, respectively. The two novel strains could be clearly distinguished from their closely related type strains by enzyme activities and substrates assimilation, respectively. Both of them took iso-C15:0, summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω7c and/or C16:1 ω6c), summed feature 4 (iso-C17:1 I and/or anteiso-C17:1 B) and C16:1 ω5c as major fatty acids, and showed clear differences from their closely relatives in the contents of several components. They contained menaquinone 7 as the major respiratory quinone and phosphatidylethanolamine as the dominant polar lipid. The G+C contents of strains 92R-1T and 9PBR-1T were 56.7 and 59.5 mol%, respectively. The results clearly supported that strains 92R-1T and 9PBR-1T represent two distinct novel species within the genus Hymenobacter , for which the names Hymenobacter fodinae sp. nov. (type strain 92R-1T=GDMCC 1.1493T=JCM 32697T) and Hymenobacter metallicola sp. nov. (type strain 9PBR-1T=GDMCC 1.1491T=JCM 32698T) are proposed.
