A taxonomic study was carried out on strain 22II1-22F33T, which was isolated from deep seawater of the Atlantic Ocean. The bacterium was Gram-stain-negative, oxidase-positive and weakly catalase-positive, oval in shape without flagellum. Growth was observed at salinities of 0–12 % and at temperatures of 4–41 °C. The isolate was capable of hydrolysing aesculin and Tween 80 and reduction of nitrate to nitrite, but unable to hydrolyse gelatin. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain 22II1-22F33T belongs to the family Rhodobacteraceae, with highest sequence similarity to Pseudooceanicola marinus AZO-CT (96.5 %). The principal fatty acids (>10 %) were summed feature 8 (C18 : 1ω7c/ω6c) (73.8 %). The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 66.2 mol%. The respiratory quinone was Q-10 (100 %). Phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), phosphatidylcholine (PC), two unidentified aminolipids (ALs), six unidentified phospholipids (PLs) and one unidentified lipid (L) were present. The combined genotypic and phenotypic data show that strain 22II1-22F33T represents a novel species within a new genus, for which the name Marinibacterium profundimaris gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Marinibacterium profundimaris is 22II1-22F33T ( = LMG 27151T = MCCC 1A09326T).

The major fatty acids (>10 %) of strain FSY-8T were summed feature 8 (C18 : 1  ω7c and/or C18 : 1  ω6c) and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1  ω7c and/or C16 : 1  ω6c). The polar lipid profile consisted of a mixture of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine, phosphatidyldimethylethanolamine, sphingoglycolipid, diphosphatidylglycerol, an uncharacterized aminophospholipid, an uncharacterized glycolipid and an uncharacterized lipid. The major polyamine was spermidine. The major isoprenoid quinone was Q-10. The DNA G+C content was 64.8 mol %. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences and coding sequences of 92 protein clusters indicated that strain FSY-8T formed a phylogenetic lineage in the genus Novosphingobium . Strain FSY-8T showed 71.6–77.2 % average nucleotide identity and 19.9–22.8 % digital DNA–DNA hybridization identity with the strains of other Novosphingobium species. On the basis of phenotypic and genotypic properties and phylogenetic inference, strain FSY-8T should be classified in a novel species of the genus Novosphingobium , for which the name Novosphingobium ovatum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is FSY-8T (=BCRC 81051T=LMG 30053T=KCTC 52812T).

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, orange-pigmented, rod-shaped and non-motile bacterium, designated strain A6B8T, was isolated from seawater of the Mariana Trench. The isolate grew at 4–50 °C (optimum 30–35 °C), at pH 6.5–8.0 (optimum pH 7.5) and with 0.5–4.0 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum 1.0–2.0 %). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain A6B8T was related most closely to the genus Muriicola and shared highest sequence similarity of 97.7 % with Muriicola jejuensis EM44T. Chemotaxonomic analysis showed menaquinone 6 (MK-6) was the predominant isoprenoid and iso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 1 G and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH were the major cellular fatty acids. The polar lipid profile of strain A6B8T included phosphatidylethanolamine, three unidentified aminolipids and four unidentified lipids. The genomic DNA G+C content was 47.1 mol%. The DNA–DNA relatedness value (23.3 %) clearly demonstrated that strains A6B8T and M. jejuensis EM44T were representatives of two different species. Based on the phenotypic, phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic characterizations, A6B8T ( = CGMCC 1.12606T = KCTC 32436T) is considered to be the type strain of a novel species of the genus Muriicola , for which the name Muriicola marianensis sp. nov. is proposed.
