A taxonomic study employing a polyphasic approach was carried out on strain FT102T, which was isolated from a deep-sea sediment sample collected in the south-west Indian Ocean at a depth of 2784 m. The strain was Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped and non-spore-forming. It grew optimally at 37–42 °C, pH 6.5–8.5 and in the presence of 1–4 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences confirmed the separation of the novel strain from recognized members of the genus Kangiella that are available in public databases. Strain FT102T exhibited 95.5–98.6 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to the type strains of the eight recognized species of the genus Kangiella. The chemotaxonomically characteristic fatty acid iso-C15:0 and ubiquinone Q-8 were also detected. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine. The DNA G+C content of strain FT102T was 45.0 mol%. The mean DNA–DNA relatedness values between strain FT102T and the type strains of Kangiella aquimarina and Kangiella koreensis were 47.3 % and 13.7 %, respectively. The combined results of phylogenetic, physiological and chemotaxonomic studies indicated that strain FT102T was affiliated with the genus Kangiella but differed from the recognized species of the genus Kangiella. Therefore, strain FT102T represents a novel species of the genus Kangiella, for which the name Kangiella profundi sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is FT102T ( = CGMCC 1.12959T = KCTC 42297T = JCM 30232T)

A novel actinomycete, strain KST3-10T, was isolated from sand sediment of a beach in Jeju, Korea, and was subjected to polyphasic taxonomic characterization. The organism produced circular, smooth, translucent, apricot-coloured colonies comprising coccoid- or rod-shaped cells. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the organism belonged to the family Geodermatophilaceae and consistently formed a distinct sub-branch outside the radiation of the genus Blastococcus. The organism showed 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 98.2 % with respect to Blastococcus aggregatus DSM 4725T and 98.1 % with respect to Blastococcus saxobsidens BC444T. The type strains of the two Blastococcus species shared 98.2 % sequence similarity with respect to each other, whereas the levels of sequence similarity between the novel organism and the type strains of the less closely related neighbours, Modestobacter multiseptatus and Geodermatophilus obscurus, were in the range 96.2–96.9 %. The physiological, biochemical and chemotaxonomic data revealed that the novel organism can be readily differentiated from members of the genus Blastococcus and that it merits separate species status. On the basis of the phenotypic and genotypic evidence, strain KST3-10T represents a novel species of the genus Blastococcus, for which the name Blastococcus jejuensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KST3-10T (=NRRL B-24440T=KCCM 42251T).

A Gram-staining negative, aerobic, oval-shaped bacterium, designated strain PTG4-2T, was isolated from deep-sea sediment of the Indian Ocean. Growth was observed with 1–9 % (w/v) NaCl with optimal growth with 3 %, at pH 6.0–10.0 with an optimum of pH 7.0, and at 4–40 °C with an optimum of 30 °C. Positive for catalase and oxidase. The results of a 16S rRNA gene sequence comparison indicated that PTG4-2T was most closely related to Acuticoccus yangtzensis JL1095T (97.3 %), followed by Acuticoccus kandeliae J103T (96.5 %), all other species shared <93 % sequence similarity. The results of phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that PTG4-2T forms a distinct lineage within the genus Acuticoccus , and revealed that the genus Acuticoccus forms a novel family-level clade in the order Rhizobiales . The ANI and the DNA–DNA hybridization estimate values between PTG4-2T and two type strains (A. yangtzensis JL1095T and A. kandeliae J103T) were 79.9–76.2 % and 23.1–20.8 %, respectively. PTG4-2T contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone. The principal fatty acids (>5 %) were summed feature 8 [C18 : 1 ω7c/ω6c (72.2 %)], C18 : 0 (8.4 %), C20 : 1 ω7c (6.4 %) and C16 : 0 (6.3 %). The polar lipids consisted of phosphatidylglycerol, three unidentified phospholipids, two unidentified glycolipids, one unidentified aminolipid and one unknown lipid. The DNA G+C content of PTG4-2T is 69.2 mol%. On the basis of the polyphasic taxonomic evidence presented in this study, PTG4-2T should be classified as representing a novel species of the genus Acuticoccus , for which the name Acuticoccus sediminis sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain PTG4-2T (=MCCC 1A01274T=KCTC 52323T).

ABSTRACT A Gram-stain-negative and flagellated bacterial strain, SHSM-M6T, was isolated from salt marsh from Yellow Sea, Republic of Korea. Neighbor-joining phylogenetic tree of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain SHSM-M6T belongs to the genus Shewanella. 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values between strain SHSM-M6T and the type strains of Shewanella species were &lt;98.0%. The average nucleotide identity and DNA–DNA hybridization values between genomic sequences of strain SHSM-M6T and the type strains of Shewanella species were &lt;73.3 and 20.7%, respectively. Strain SHSM-M6T contained MK-6 as predominant menaquinone and Q-7 and Q-8 as the predominant ubiquinones. The novel strain contained C16:1ω7c and/or C16:1ω6c, iso-C15:0 and C16:0 as major fatty acids. Major polar lipids of strain SHSM-M6T were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, one unidentified lipid, one unidentified aminolipid and one unidentified phospholipid. Differential phenotypic properties of strain SHSM-M6T, together with its phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, revealed that strain SHSM-M6T is separated from recognized Shewanella species. On the basis of the data presented, strain SHSM-M6T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Shewanella, for which the name Shewanella salipaludis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SHSM-M6T (=KACC 19901T = NBRC 113646T).

A novel obligately anaerobic, extremely thermophilic, organotrophic bacterium, strain Rift-s3T, was isolated from a deep-sea sample containing Riftia pachyptila sheath from Guaymas Basin, Gulf of California. Cells of the novel isolate were rods, 0.3–0.8 µm in width and 1.5–10 µm in length, surrounded by a sheath-like structure (toga). Strain Rift-s3T grew at temperatures ranging from 44 to 75 °C, at pH 5.5 to 8.0, and with NaCl concentrations of 3 to 60 g l−1. Under optimum conditions (65 °C, pH 6.0, NaCl 25 g l−1), the doubling time was 30 min. The isolate was able to ferment mono-, oligo- and polysaccharides including cellulose, chitin, xylan and pectin, and proteins including β-keratins, casein and gelatin. Acetate, hydrogen and carbon dioxide were the main products of glucose fermentation. The G+C content of the DNA was 30 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed the affiliation of strain Rift-s3T with the genus Thermosipho , with Thermosipho atlanticus Ob7T as the closest relative (96.5 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity). Based on the phylogenetic analysis and physiological properties of the novel isolate we propose a novel species of the genus Thermosipho , Thermosipho activus sp. nov., with Rift-s3T ( = DSM 26467T = VKM B-2803T) as the type strain.

A polychlorophenol-degrading strain, designated MT1T, and three MT1-like strains, MT101, MT103 and MT104, were isolated from a cold (4–8 °C) fluidized-bed process treating chlorophenol-contaminated groundwater in southern Finland. The organisms were Gram-negative, rod-shaped, catalase-positive, non-spore-forming and non-motile. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the strains belonged to the α-4 subclass of the Proteobacteria and were members of the genus Novosphingobium. The highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity observed for these strains was 96·5 % with the type strains of Novosphingobium hassiacum, Novosphingobium aromaticivorans and Novosphingobium subterraneum. Chemotaxonomic data (major ubiquinone: Q-10; major polyamine: spermidine; major polar lipids: phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine and sphingoglycolipid; major fatty acids: 18 : 1ω7c, 16 : 1ω7c and 2-OH 14 : 0) as well as the ability to reduce nitrate supported the affiliation of the strains to the genus Novosphingobium. Based on the phylogenetic analysis, whole-cell fatty acid composition as well as biochemical and physiological characteristics, the MT1-like strains were highly similar and could be separated from all recognized Novosphingobium species. The novel species Novosphingobium lentum sp. nov. is proposed to accommodate strains MT1T (=DSM 13663T=CCUG 45847T), MT101 (=CCUG 45849), MT103 (=CCUG 45850) and MT104 (=CCUG 45851).

A Gram-stain-negative, motile, aerobic bacterial strain, designated 22DY15T, was isolated from a deep-sea sediment sample collected from a hydrothermal vent field located in the East Pacific Rise. The isolate was a short rod with a single flagellum and was positive for catalase and oxidase activities. Q-10 was the predominant respiratory quinone. The major polar lipids consisted of phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, phosphoglycolipid, one aminolipid and three unidentified phospholipids. The principal fatty acid (>70 %) was C18 : 1ω7c. The genomic DNA G+C content was 64.3 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain 22DY15T represents a distinct lineage within the family Rhodobacteraceae. The closest relatives were species of the genera Aliiroseovarius (93.3–96.0 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), Sulfitobacter (94.0–96.0 %) and Loktanella (92.0–95.9 %). Differential phenotypic properties, together with phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, revealed that strain 22DY15T could be differentiated from its most closely related genera. Therefore, it is proposed that strain 22DY15T represents a novel species in a new genus of the family Rhodobacteraceae, for which the name Brevirhabdus pacifica gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of the type species is 22DY15T ( = JCM 19489T = DSM 27767T = CGMCC 1.12416T = MCCC 1K00276T).

A taxonomic study was carried out on a novel bacterium, designated strain ck-I2-15T, which was isolated from deep-sea sediment collected from the South-west Indian Ocean Ridge. Cells of strain ck-I2-15T were Gram-reaction-negative, rod-shaped, non-motile, moderately halophilic and capable of denitrification. Growth was observed with 0–9 % (w/v) NaCl and at temperatures of 10–37 °C. The novel strain was unable to degrade gelatin. The dominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C17 : 0 3-OH and summed feature 9 (iso-C17 : 1ω9c and/or 10-methyl C16 : 0). The major respiratory quinone was MK6 and the polar lipid profile comprised phosphatidylethanolamine, one unidentified phospholipid, two unidentified aminolipids, one unidentified glycolipid and four other unidentified lipids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 38 mol%. 16S rRNA gene sequence comparison indicated that strain ck-I2-15T was most closely related to Galbibacter mesophilus Mok-17T (92.9 % sequence similarity), followed by ‘Joostella atrarenae’ M1-2 (92.8 %), Joostella marina En5T (92.7 %) and Zhouia amylolytica HN-171T (91.6 %). Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain ck-I2-15T formed a clade with the genus Galbibacter , within the family Flavobacteriaceae . Several phenotypic properties allowed strain ck-I2-15T to be distinguished from its closest phylogenetic relatives. On the basis of the phenotypic and phylogenetic data, strain ck-I2-15T represents a novel species of the genus Galbibacter , for which the name Galbibacter marinus is proposed. The type strain is ck-I2-15T ( = CCTCC AB 209062T = LMG 25228T = MCCC 1A03044T).
