A novel bacterial strain, designated THYL-44T, was isolated from the soil of a Euphrates poplar (Populus euphratica) forest in Xinjiang, China. The cells were strictly aerobic, Gram-staining-negative, non-flagellated, non-motile and filamentous. Growth occurred at 17–37 °C (optimum 30 °C), at pH 5.0–8.0 (optimum pH 7.0) and with 0–1 % NaCl (w/v; optimum 0 %). Flexirubin pigments were not produced. A phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain THYL-44T was closely related to Niastella koreensis KACC 11465T (95.5 % sequence similarity). The major respiratory quinone was MK-7 and the predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0 (28.6 %), iso-C17 : 0 3-OH (23.9 %) and iso-C15 : 1 G (17.4 %). The DNA G+C content was 45.2 mol%. Therefore, the phylogenetic, physiological and chemotaxonomic data demonstrated that strain THYL-44T represents a novel species of the genus Niastella, for which the name Niastella populi sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is THYL-44T (=CCTCC AB 208238T=KCTC 22560T). On the basis of new data, an emended description of the genus Niastella is also proposed.

Major Respiratory Quinone

A novel non-sporulating, non-motile, catalase- and oxidase-positive, strictly aerobic, Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated DCA-1T, was isolated from activated sludge collected from a butachlor wastewater treatment facility. The strain was able to degrade about 85 % of 100 mg butachlor l−1 within 5 days of incubation. Growth occurred in the presence of 0–6 % (w/v) NaCl [optimum, 1 % (w/v) NaCl] and at pH 5.5–9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0) and 15–35 °C (optimum, 25–30 °C). Vesicular internal membrane structures and photoheterotrophic growth were not observed. The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone 10 (Q-10) and the major cellular fatty acids were C18 : 1ω7c and 11-methyl C18 : 1ω7c. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain DCA-1T was 62.5 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence comparison revealed that strain DCA-1T was a member of the family Rhodobacteraceae and was related most closely to the type strain of Catellibacterium aquatile (96.5 % sequence similarity). The combination of phylogenetic analysis, phenotypic characteristics and chemotaxonomic data supports the suggestion that strain DCA-1T represents a novel species of the genus Catellibacterium, for which the name Catellibacterium caeni sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DCA-1T ( = CGMCC 1.7745T  = DSM 21823T). In addition, based on the characterization data obtained in this study, it is proposed that Rhodobacter changlensis should be reclassified as Catellibacterium changlense comb. nov. (type strain JA139T  = DSM 18774T  = CCUG 53722T  = JCM 14338T). An emended description of the genus Catellibacterium is also presented.
