Twenty coagulase-negative Staphylococcus strains displaying α-haemolysis (δ-haemolysin) on sheep-blood agar were isolated from the noses of different pigs in Switzerland. The strains were Gram-stain-positive, non-motile cocci, catalase-positive and coagulase-negative. Sequence analysis of the 16S rRNA gene, sodA, rpoB, dnaJ and hsp60 and phylogenetic characteristics revealed that the strains showed the closest relatedness to Staphylococcus microti CCM 4903T and Staphylococcus muscae DSM 7068T. The strains can be differentiated from S. microti by the absence of mannose fermentation and arginine arylamidase and from S. muscae by the absence of β-glucuronidase activity and production of alkaline phosphatase. The chosen type strain ARI 262T shared 20.1 and 31.9 % DNA relatedness with S. microti DSM 22147T and S. muscae CCM 4903T, respectively, by DNA–DNA hybridization. iso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0 and iso-C17 : 0 were the most common fatty acids. Cell-wall structure analysis revealed the peptidoglycan type A3α l-Lys–Gly2–l-Ser–Gly (type A11.3). The presence of teichoic acid was determined by sequencing the N-acetyl-β-d-mannosaminyltransferase gene tarA, which is involved in biosynthesis of ribitol teichoic acid. Menaquinone 7 (MK-7) was the predominant respiratory quinone. The G+C content of ARI 262T was 38.8 mol%. The isolated strains represent a novel species of the genus Staphylococcus, for which we propose the name Staphylococcus rostri sp. nov. The type strain is ARI 262T (=DSM 21968T =CCUG 57266T) and strain ARI 602 (=DSM 21969 =CCUG 57267) is a reference strain.

Abstract A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped and motile bacterium, named LAMW06T, was isolated from greenhouse soil in Beijing, China. In the 16S rRNA gene sequence comparison, strain LAMW06T had the highest similarity with Pseudomonas cuatrocienegasensis 1NT was 97.4%. Phylogenetic analysis base on the 16S rRNA and three housekeeping gene sequences (gyrB, rpoB and rpoD) indicated that LAMW06T represented a member of the genus Pseudomonas. The genome sequence size of the isolate was 5.5 Mb, with the DNA G+C content of 63.5 mol%. The average nucleotide identity and DNA–DNA hybridization values between strain LAMW06T and closely related members of Pseudomonas borbori R-20821T, Pseudomonas taeanensis MS-3T and Pseudomonas cuatrocienegasensis 1NT were 90.9%, 82.4%, 81.5 % and 43.0%, 25.9%, 24.6 % respectively. The major fatty acids contained summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω6c and/or C16:1 ω7c), C18:1 ω7c and C16:0. The primary respiratory quinone was ubiquinone-9. The main polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, six aminophospholipids, six phospholipids, one aminolipid and one glycolipid. According to the genotypic, phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic data, strain LAMW06T represents a novel species within the genus Pseudomonas, for which the name Pseudomonas tumuqiensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is LAMW06T (=GDMCC 1.2003T =KCTC 72829T).

Resequencing of the 16S rRNA gene of the type strain of Herbaspirillum putei Ding and Yokota 2004 revealed 99.9 % sequence similarity to that of the type strain of Herbaspirillum huttiense (Leifson 1962) Ding and Yokota 2004. This high phylogenetic relatedness of H. putei and H. huttiense was confirmed by the results of DNA–DNA hybridization between H. huttiense DSM 10281T and H. putei ATCC BAA-806T (reassociation value 96 %). Therefore, it is proposed to reclassify the type strain of H. putei as a strain of H. huttiense. However, the genome of the type strain of H. putei is about 0.9 Mb larger than that of the H. huttiense type strain. This results in a decrease in the reassociation value in the reciprocal DNA–DNA hybridization to 72 %, a level slightly above the threshold for delineating bacterial species. These data and distinctive phenotypic characteristics indicate that the name Herbaspirillum putei is a later heterotypic synonym of Herbaspirillum huttiense and permit the description of two novel subspecies, Herbaspirillum huttiense subsp. huttiense subsp. nov. (type strain ATCC 14670T =JCM 21423T =DSM 10281T) and Herbaspirillum huttiense subsp. putei subsp. nov., comb. nov. (type strain 7-2T =JCM 21495T =ATCC BAA-806T). Three bacterial strains, IEH 4430T, IEH 4515 and IEH 8757, isolated from water were found to be the closest relatives of these strains. Strain IEH 8757 was classified as a strain of H. huttiense subsp. putei. Studies of genotypic and phenotypic features of strains IEH 4430T and IEH 4515 showed that the strains represent a novel species, which is most closely related to H. huttiense and for which the name Herbaspirillum aquaticum sp. nov. is proposed (type strain IEH 4430T =DSM 21191T =ATCC BAA-1628T).

A Gram-staining-negative, aerobic to microaerophilic, rod-shaped, red-coloured bacterium, strain T4T, was isolated from a freshwater pipe on Tenerife island. A polyphasic taxonomic study was performed in order to characterize the strain in detail. The isolate is surrounded by a slime capsule, occurs singly, in the form of short chains, or in aggregates, and exhibits catalase and oxidase activities. Growth was observed at 15–42 °C. Optimum growth occurred at pH 8 with mono- and disaccharides, followed by polysaccharides and deoxysaccharides, but the bacterium utilized only a restricted spectrum of alcohols, alditols, amides, amines, carboxylic acids and amino acids. Strain T4T tolerated concentrations of 0–4 % (w/v) NaCl and contained MK-7 as predominant isoprenoid quinone as well as carotenoids, but lacked pigments of the flexirubin type. The predominant fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0 (32.2 %), summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω6c and/or C16 : 1ω7c; 22.5 %), and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH (7.9 %). Major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phospholipids, aminophospholipids and other lipids of unknown character. The DNA G+C content was approximately 41.8 mol%. The sequence of the 16S-rRNA gene assigned strain T4T to the CFB group, forming a coherent cluster with species of the genus Algoriphagus with the highest similarity of 98.8 % to Algoriphagus aquatilis A8-7T. DNA–DNA hybridization revealed 37.5 % relatedness to strain A8-7T. Based on morphological, physiological and molecular properties as well as on phylogenetic distinctiveness, strain T4T should be placed into the genus Algoriphagus as a novel species, for which the name Algoriphagus aquaeductus sp. nov. (type strain T4T  = DSM 19759T  = LMG 24398T  = NCIMB 14399T) is proposed.
