Forest Humus

A novel xylan-degrading bacterium, designated XDB9T, was isolated from forest humus collected from Gyeryong Mountain in Korea. Cells were Gram-positive, aerobic, motile and endospore-forming rods. A neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain XDB9T was most closely related to members of the genus Lysinibacillus. 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities between strain XDB9T and the type strains of species of the genus Lysinibacillus ranged from 98.0 to 98.5 %. The cell-wall peptidoglycan type of strain XDB9T was A4α, which is based on l-Lys–d-Asp. Strain XDB9T contained iso-C15 : 0 and C16 : 1 ω7c alcohol as the major fatty acids and MK-7 as the predominant menaquinone. The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. The DNA G+C content was 37.2 mol%. The DNA–DNA hybridization results and differential phenotypic properties showed that strain XDB9T could be distinguished from recognized species of the genus Lysinibacillus. It was concluded that strain XDB9T represents a new taxon for which the name Lysinibacillus xylanilyticus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is XDB9T (=KCTC 13423T=CCUG 57438T).

ABSTRACT A bacterial strain, DBTF-3T, was isolated from a tidal flat of Republic of Korea. Phylogenetic trees of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain DBTF-3T belonged to the genus Polaribacter. Strain DBTF-3T exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities of 97.1–98.1% to type strains of P. dokdonensis, P. haliotis, P. marinaquae, P. insulae, P. vadi, P. glomeratus, P. irgensii and P. reichenbachii, and 94.0–96.9% to those of the other Polaribacter species. DNA–DNA relatedness values of strain DBTF-3T with type strains of P. marinaquae and P. insulae were 14–19%. Average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values between strain DBTF-3T and type strains of six other Polaribacter species were 76.5–83.5% and 20.9–27.1%, respectively. Strain DBTF-3T contained MK-6 as the predominant menaquinone, and iso-C15:0, summed feature 3, iso-C15:1 G and iso-C15:0 3-OH as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine and one unidentified lipid. Differential phenotypic properties, together with its phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, revealed that strain DBTF-3T is separated from Polaribacter species. On the basis of the data presented, strain DBTF-3T (= KACC 19612T = NBRC 113191T) represents a novel species of the genus Polaribacter, for which the name Polaribacter aestuariivivens sp. nov. is proposed.

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, pale yellow, rod-shaped bacterial strain, YW14T, was isolated from soil and its taxonomic position was investigated by a polyphasic study. Strain YW14T did not form nodules on three different legumes, and the nodD and nifH genes were not detected by PCR. Strain YW14T contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone. The major cellular fatty acid was C18 : 1ω7c. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences and seven housekeeping gene sequences (recA, atpD, glnII, gyrB, rpoB, dnaK and thrC) showed that strain YW14T belonged to the genus Rhizobium . Strain YW14T showed 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 93.4–97.3 % to the type strains of recognized species of the genus Rhizobium . DNA–DNA relatedness between strain YW14T and the type strains of Rhizobium sullae IS123T and Rhizobium yanglingense CCBAU 71623T was 19.6–25.7 %, indicating that strain YW14T was distinct from them genetically. Strain YW14T could also be differentiated from these phylogenetically related species of the genus Rhizobium by various phenotypic properties. On the basis of phenotypic properties, phylogenetic distinctiveness and genetic data, strain YW14T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Rhizobium , for which the name Rhizobium flavum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YW14T ( = KACC 17222T = CCTCC AB2013042T).

The taxonomic status of an actinomycete isolated from soil collected from a hay meadow was determined using a polyphasic approach. The strain, designated N1350T, had morphological and chemotaxonomic properties consistent with its classification in the genus Williamsia and formed a distinct phyletic line within the clade comprising the type strains of species of the genus Williamsia in the 16S rRNA gene tree. Strain N1350T shared highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities with Williamsia marianensis MT8T (98.1 %) and Williamsia muralis MA140-96T (98.3 %). However, strain N1350T was readily distinguished from the type strains of Williamsia species using a combination of phenotypic properties. On the basis of these data, strain N1350T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Williamsia. The name proposed for this taxon is Williamsia faeni sp. nov., with the type strain N1350T (=DSM 45372T =NCIMB 14575T =NRRL B-24794T).

The taxonomic properties of strain DC2c-G4T, a Gram-staining-negative, ovoid, gellan-gum-degrading bacterial isolate, were examined. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences identified this isolate as a member of the phylum Verrucomicrobia and closest to the genus Prosthecobacter . The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities between this isolate and any of the type strains of species of the genus Prosthecobacter were less than 95 %. In addition, the absence of a single prostheca and the predominant menaquinone MK-7(H2) supported the differentiation of this isolate from the genus Prosthecobacter . Here, we propose Brevifollis gellanilyticus gen. nov., sp. nov. to accommodate the isolate. The type strain of the type species is DC2c-G4T ( = NBRC 108608T = CIP 110457T).

Two Gram-stain-negative and non-flagellated bacteria, YSTF-M3T and YSTF-M6T, were isolated from a tidal flat from Yellow Sea, Republic of Korea, and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. Neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strains YSTF-M3T and YSTF-M6T belong to the genera Kordia and Olleya of the family Flavobacteriaceae , respectively. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities between strain YSTF-M3T and the type strains of Kordia species and between strain YSTF-M6T and the type strains of Olleya species were 94.1–98.4 and 97.3–98.3 %, respectively. The ANI and dDDH values between genomic sequences of strain YSTF-M3T and the type strains of five Kordia species and between those of strain YSTF-M6T and the type strains of three Olleya species were in ranges of 77.0–83.2 and 20.7–27.1 % and 79.4–81.5 and 22.3–23.9 %, respectively. The DNA G+C contents of strain YSTF-M3T and YSTF-M6T from genomic sequences were 34.1 and 31.1 %, respectively. Both strains contained MK-6 as predominant menaquinone and phosphatidylethanolamine as only major phospholipid identified. Differential phenotypic properties, together with the phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, revealed that strains YSTF-M3T and YSTF-M6T are separated from recognized species of the genera Kordia and Olleya , respectively. On the basis of the data presented, strains YSTF-M3T (=KACC 21639T=NBRC 114499T) and YSTF-M6T (=KACC 21640T=NBRC 114500T) are considered to represent novel species of the genera Kordia and Olleya , respectively, for which the names Kordia aestuariivivens sp. nov. and Olleya sediminilitoris sp. nov. are proposed.
