Extremely Halophilic Archaeon

A novel, extremely halophilic archaeon, D43T, was isolated from traditional salt-fermented seafood in Korea. The cells were Gram-negative-staining and motile. The strain grew at 15–50 °C, 10–30 % (w/v) NaCl and pH 6.0–8.0. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain D43T is affiliated with the family Halobacteriaceae in the domain Archaea and had 95.5 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with Haladaptatus paucihalophilus DX253T. The sequence from strain D43T formed a clade with those from Hap. paucihalophilus regardless of which tree-generating algorithm was used. DNA–DNA hybridization experiments showed 25.8 % relatedness between the isolate and Hap. paucihalophilus KCTC 4006T. Major lipids were phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol phosphate methyl ester and two unidentified glycolipids. The DNA G+C content of the isolate was 56.5 mol%. On the basis of this polyphasic taxonomic study, strain D43T represents a novel species in the genus Haladaptatus, for which the name Haladaptatus cibarius sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is D43T (=DSM 19505T =JCM 15962T).

Extremely Halophilic Archaeon

An extremely halophilic archaeon, strain DA50T, was isolated from a brine sample of Urmia lake, a hypersaline environment in north-west Iran. Strain DA50T was orange-pigmented, motile, pleomorphic and required at least 2.5 M NaCl but not MgCl2 for growth. Optimal growth was achieved at 4.0 M NaCl and 0.3 M MgCl2. The optimum pH and temperature for growth were pH 7.0 and 45 °C, while it was able to grow over a pH range of 6.5–8.0 and a temperature range of 25–50 °C. Analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain DA50T is a member of the family Halobacteriaceae, showing a low level of similarity with other members of this family. Highest similarities, 94.4, 94.0 and 93.9 %, were obtained with the 16S rRNA gene sequences of the type strains of Natrialba aegyptia, Halobiforma lacisalsi and Halovivax asiaticus, respectively. Polar lipid analyses revealed that strain DA50T contains phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylglycerol phosphate methyl ester. Four unidentified glycolipids and two minor phospholipids were also observed. The only quinone present was MK-8(II-H2). The G+C content of its DNA was 62.3 mol%. On the basis of the data obtained, the new isolate could not be classified in any recognized genus. Strain DA50T is thus considered to represent a novel species of a new genus within the family Halobacteriaceae, order Halobacteriales, for which the name Halovarius luteus gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Halovarius luteus is DA50T ( = IBRC-M 10912T = CECT 8510T).

Emended Description

A Gram-stain-negative, non-flagellated, motile (by gliding), yellow-pigmented, rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated L-4T, was isolated from seawater of Baekdo harbour in the East Sea, Korea. Strain L-4T grew optimally at 37 °C, at pH 6.5–7.0 and in the presence of 2 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain L-4T clustered with Olleya marilimosa CAM030T, a member of the family Flavobacteriaceae. Strain L-4T exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 97.2 % to O. marilimosa CAM030T and less than 95.8 % to other members of the family Flavobacteriaceae. Strain L-4T and O. marilimosa CIP 108537T contained MK-6 as the predominant menaquinone. The fatty acid and polar lipid profiles of strain L-4T were similar to those of O. marilimosa CIP 108537T. The DNA G+C content of strain L-4T was 35 mol% and DNA–DNA relatedness between strain L-4T and O. marilimosa CIP 108537T was 7 %. Differential phenotypic properties, together with its phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, enable strain L-4T to be distinguished from O. marilimosa. On the basis of these data, strain L-4T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Olleya for which the name Olleya aquimaris sp. nov. is proposed; the type strain is L-4T (=KCTC 22661T =CCUG 58074T). An emended description of the genus Olleya is also provided.

© 2017 IUMS. A novel anaerobic pectinolytic bacterium (strain 14T) was isolated from human faeces. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain 14T belonged to the family Ruminococcaceae, but was located separately from known clostridial clusters within the taxon. The closest cultured relative of strain 14T was Acetivibrio cellulolyticus (89.7% sequence similarity). Strain 14T shared ~99% sequence similarity with cloned 16S rRNA gene sequences from uncultured bacteria derived from the human gut. Cells were Gram-stain-positive, non-motile cocci approximately 0.6μm in diameter. Strain 14T fermented pectins from citrus peel, apple, and kiwifruit as well as carbohydrates that are constituents of pectins and hemicellulose, such as galacturonic acid, xylose, and arabinose. TEM images of strain 14T, cultured in association with plant tissues, suggested extracellular fibrolytic activity associated with the bacterial cells, forming zones of degradation in the pectin-rich regions of middle lamella. Phylogenetic and phenotypic analysis supported the differentiation of strain 14T as a novel genus in the family Ruminococcaceae. The name Monoglobus pectinilyticus gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed; the type strain is 14T (JCM 31914T=DSM 104782T).

A novel, extremely halophilic archaeon B3T was isolated from shrimp-salted seafood. Its morphology, physiology, biochemical features and 16S rRNA gene sequence were characterized. Strain B3T is non-motile, Gram-variable, requires at least 10 % (w/v) NaCl for growth and grows in the ranges of 21–50 °C and pH 6.5–9.0. The DNA G+C content of strain B3T was 63.2 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain B3T belonged to the genus Halalkalicoccus and was phylogenetically closely related to the type strain Halalkalicoccus tibetensis (98.64 %). However, DNA–DNA hybridization experiments showed 7.0 % relatedness between strain B3T and a strain of a reference species of the genus Halalkalicoccus. Combined analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences, DNA–DNA relatedness data, physiological and biochemical tests indicated that the genotypic and phenotypic characteristics differentiate strain B3T from other Halalkalicoccus species. On the basis of the evidence presented in this report, strain B3T represents a novel species of the genus Halalkalicoccus, for which the name Halalkalicoccus jeotgali. sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is B3T (=KCTC 4019T=DSM 18796T=JCM 14584T=CECT 7217T).

A Gram-staining-negative, non-flagellated, non-gliding and rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated HWR-17T, was isolated from seawater of the Yellow Sea in Korea. Strain HWR-17T grew optimally at pH 7.0–8.0, at 30 °C and in the presence of 2 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain HWR-17T clustered with the two Mariniflexile species in the family Flavobacteriaceae, exhibiting 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 97.1–97.2 % to their type strains and less than 95.7 % sequence similarity to other members of the family Flavobacteriaceae. Strain HWR-17T contained MK-6 as the predominant menaquinone and iso-C15 : 0 as the major fatty acid. The polar lipid profile of strain HWR-17T contained phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminolipid and four unidentified lipids. The DNA G+C content of strain HWR-17T was 35.7 mol% and it exhibited 11 and 10 % DNA–DNA relatedness, respectively, with Mariniflexile gromovii KCTC 12570T and Mariniflexile fucanivorans DSM 18792T. The phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness and differential phenotypic properties revealed that strain HWR-17T is distinguishable from the two recognized Mariniflexile species. On the basis of the data presented, strain HWR-17T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Mariniflexile, for which the name Mariniflexile aquimaris sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HWR-17T ( = KCTC 23346T  = CCUG 60529T). An emended description of the genus Mariniflexile is also proposed.

A novel, moderately halophilic, Gram-positive coccus, designated strain S2R53-5T, was isolated from jeotgal, a traditional Korean fermented seafood. The organism was strictly aerobic, non-motile, non-sporulating and catalase- and oxidase-positive. Strain S2R53-5T grew in the presence of 0.5–15 % (w/v) NaCl and at pH 6.5–11.0, with optimum growth at 5 % (w/v) NaCl and pH 7.0. The temperature range for growth was 20.0–30.0 °C, with an optimum temperature of 30 °C. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain S2R53-5T belongs to the family Staphylococcaceae and was most closely related to Salinicoccus roseus DSM 5351T (96.8 % gene sequence similarity), Salinicoccus hispanicus DSM 5352T (96.1 %), Salinicoccus alkaliphilus T8T (95.2 %) and Jeotgalicoccus halotolerans YKJ-101T (95.1 %). The genomic DNA G+C content was 47.0 mol%, which is in the range of 46–51 mol% that is characteristic for the genus Salinicoccus. Levels of DNA–DNA relatedness between strain S2R53-5T and S. roseus DSM 5351T, S. hispanicus DSM 5352T and S. alkaliphilus KCTC 13928T were 32.2, 15.4 and 4.6 %, respectively. Chemotaxonomic data (major menaquinone, MK-6; major fatty acids, iso-C15 : 0 and anteiso-C15 : 0; cell-wall murein type, Lys and Gly) and 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis supported the affiliation of strain S2R53-5T with the genus Salinicoccus. The combined evidence from the low DNA–DNA relatedness, physiological, biochemical and other genotypic data indicate that strain S2R53-5T clearly represents a novel species of the genus Salinicoccus, for which the name Salinicoccus jeotgali sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is S2R53-5T (=KCTC 13030T=LMG 23640T).

An extremely halophilic archaeon was isolated from a water sample of Isla Bacuta saltern in Huelva, Spain. Strain ASP54T is a novel red-pigmented, motile, rod-shaped, Gram-stain-negative and strictly aerobic haloarchaeon. Strain ASP54T grew in media containing 15–30  % (w/v) salts and optimally with 25  % (w/v) salts. It grew between pH 5.0 and 9.0 (optimally at pH 7.5) and at 20–40 °C (optimally at 37 °C). Phylogenetic analysis based on multi-locus sequence analysis (MLSA) and the comparison of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain ASP54T is most closely related to the genus Halovenus. The closest relatives were Halovenus aranensis EB27T (92.1  % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), Halorientalis regularis TNN28T (92.1  %), and Halorientalis persicus D108T (92.0  %). The polar lipid pattern of strain ASP54T consisted of biphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol phosphate methyl ester, phosphatidylglycerol sulfate, sulfated mannosyl glucosyl diether and a minor-phospholipid. The predominant respiratory quinone was menaquinone-8 (MK-8) (83  %), and a minor amount of MK-8(VIII-H2) (17  %) was also detected. The G+C content of the genomic DNA of this strain was 63.1 mol%. Based on the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data presented in this study, strain ASP54T represents a novel species of the genus Halovenus, for which the name Halovenus salina sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is ASP54T ( = CECT 8749T = IBRC-M 10946T = JCM 30072T).

A novel actinobacterium, designated strain NEAU-QY2T, was isolated from the leaves of Sonchus oleraceus L. specimen, collected from Wuchang, Heilongjiang Province, China. A polyphasic study was carried out to establish the taxonomic position of this strain. The organism formed single spores with rough surfaces on substrate mycelia. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain NEAU-QY2T belonged to the genus Plantactinospora and formed a monophyletic clade with its closest related strains Plantactinospora endophytica YIM 68255T (99.2 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), Plantactinospora veratri NEAU-FHS4T (98.8 %) and Plantactinospora mayteni YIM 61359T (98.7 %), an association that was supported by a bootstrap value of 90 % in the neighbour-joining tree and also recovered with the maximum-likelihood algorithm. However, DNA–DNA hybridization values between strain NEAU-QY2T and the three closely related strains were below 70 %. With reference to phenotypic characteristics, phylogenetic data and DNA–DNA hybridization results, strain NEAU-QY2T was distinguished from closely related strains and is classified as representing a novel species of the genus Plantactinospora, for which the name Plantactinospora sonchi sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NEAU-QY2T ( = CGMCC 4.7216T = JCM 30345T).
