A Gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain CL-33T, was isolated from the encrusting pore coral Montipora aequituberculata collected from seawater off the coast of southern Taiwan. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that the strain clustered closely with Endozoicomonas elysicola MKT110T (96.7 % similarity). The novel strain required NaCl for growth and exhibited optimal growth at 25 °C and in the presence of 2–3 % NaCl. Predominant cellular fatty acids were summed feature 3 (C16 : 1 ω7c and/or C16 : 1 ω6c; 39.6 %), summed feature 8 (C18 : 1 ω7c and/or C18 : 1 ω6c; 32.8 %) and C16 : 0 (12.0 %). The DNA G+C content of strain CL-33T was 50.0 mol%. The results of physiological and biochemical tests allowed the clear phenotypic differentiation of this isolate from E. elysicola. It is evident from the genotypic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic data presented that strain CL-33T represents a novel species of the genus Endozoicomonas, for which the name Endozoicomonas montiporae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CL-33T (=LMG 24815T =BCRC 17933T).

A Gram-negative, rod-shaped, motile bacterium was isolated from the soil of a ginseng field in Daejeon, South Korea, and characterized in order to determine its taxonomic position. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain DCY34T belonged to the family Sphingomonadaceae, and the highest degree of sequence similarity was found with Sphingopyxis witflariensis W-50T (97.1 %), Sphingopyxis ginsengisoli Gsoil 250T (97.0 %), Sphingopyxis chilensis S37T (96.9 %), Sphingopyxis macrogoltabida IFO 15033T (96.8 %), Sphingopyxis alaskensis RB2256T (96.7 %) and Sphingopyxis taejonensis JSS54T (96.7 %). Chemotaxonomic data revealed that strain DCY34T possessed ubiquinone Q-10 as the predominant respiratory lipoquinone, which is common to members of the genus Sphingopyxis. The predominant fatty acids were C18 : 1 ω7c (27.5 %), summed feature 4 (C16 : 1 ω7c and/or C15 : 0 iso 2-OH; 18.6 %), C16 : 0 (15.6 %) and summed feature 8 (C19 : 1 ω6c and/or unknown 18.864; 15.4 %). The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, sphingoglycolipid and an unknown polar lipid. The results of physiological and biochemical tests clearly demonstrated that strain DCY34T represented a separate species and supported its affiliation to the genus Sphingopyxis. Based on these data, the new isolate represents a novel species, for which the name Sphingopyxis panaciterrulae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DCY34T (=KCTC 22112T=JCM 14844T).

A Gram-negative, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming bacteria was isolated from a nitrifying inoculum. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, this strain, designated LMG 22951T, was shown to belong to the ‘Alphaproteobacteria’ and to be related to Devosia neptuniae (97·4 %) and Devosia riboflavina (97·0 %). The results of DNA–DNA hybridization, analysis of fatty acid composition, SDS-PAGE, physiological and biochemical tests allowed genotypic and phenotypic differentiation of LMG 22951T from the two recognized Devosia species. LMG 22951T therefore represents a novel species within this genus, for which the name Devosia limi is proposed. The type strain is LMG 22951T (=DSM 17137T).

A Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain DCY01T, was isolated from soil from a ginseng field in South Korea and was characterized in order to determine its taxonomic position. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain DCY01T belonged to the Gammaproteobacteria and was most closely related to Stenotrophomonas koreensis KCTC 12211T (98.4 % similarity), Stenotrophomonas humi R-32729T (97.2 %), Stenotrophomonas terrae R-32768 (97.1 %), Stenotrophomonas maltophilia DSM 50170T (96.9 %) and Stenotrophomonas nitritireducens DSM 12575T (96.8 %). Chemotaxonomic analyses revealed that strain DCY01T possessed a quinone system with Q-8 as the predominant compound, and iso-C15 : 0 (28.2 %), C16 : 0 10-methyl (13.2 %), iso-C15 : 1 F (10.8 %) and C15 : 0 (7.5 %) as major fatty acids, corroborating assignment of strain DCY01T to the genus Stenotrophomonas. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol. The results of DNA–DNA hybridization and physiological and biochemical tests clearly demonstrated that strain DCY01T represents a species distinct from recognized Stenotrophomonas species. Based on these data, DCY01T (=KCTC 12539T=NBRC 101154T) should be classified as the type strain of a novel species of the genus Stenotrophomonas, for which the name Stenotrophomonas ginsengisoli sp. nov. is proposed.

A bacterial strain (designated KMY03T) that possesses β-glucosidase activity was isolated from soil from a ginseng field in South Korea and was characterized in order to determine its taxonomic position. The bacterium was found to comprise Gram-negative, rod-shaped, motile cells with unipolar polytrichous flagella. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, strain KMY03T was shown to belong to the family Burkholderiaceae of the Betaproteobacteria, being most closely related to Burkholderia caledonica LMG 19076T (97.8 %), Burkholderia terricola LMG 20594T (97.5 %), Burkholderia xenovorans LMG 21463T (97.4 %) and Burkholderia phytofirmans LMG 22146T (97.3 %). Chemotaxonomic data (major ubiquinone, Q-8; major fatty acids, C17 : 0 cyclo, C16 : 0, C19 : 0 cyclo ω8c and summed feature 2) supported the affiliation of the novel strain with the genus Burkholderia. The results of DNA–DNA hybridizations and physiological and biochemical tests allowed the strain to be differentiated genotypically and phenotypically from Burkholderia species with validly published names. On the basis of these data, strain KMY03T represents a novel species of the genus Burkholderia, for which the name Burkholderia ginsengisoli sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KMY03T (=KCTC 12389T=NBRC 100965T).

A Gram-negative, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming bacterium (strain NS11T) was isolated from a lichen-colonized rock surface. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, strain NS11T was shown to belong to the Betaproteobacteria, and was most closely related to Herminiimonas arsenicoxydans ULPAs1T (98.8 %), Herminiimonas aquatilis CCUG 36956T (98.0 %) and Herminiimonas fonticola S-94T (98.0 %). Major whole-cell fatty acids were C16 : 0, C17 : 0 cyclo and C16 : 1 ω7c. Strain NS11T also contained high proportions of C10 : 0 3-OH and C18 : 1 ω7c. This pattern is typical for members of the genus Herminiimonas. The results of DNA–DNA hybridization experiments and physiological and biochemical tests allowed genotypic and phenotypic differentiation of strain NS11T from the three recognized Herminiimonas species. It is therefore concluded that strain NS11T represents a novel species of the genus Herminiimonas, for which the name Herminiimonas saxobsidens sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NS11T (=DSM 18748T=CCM 7436T).

A Gram-negative, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming bacterial strain, designated LMG 2337T, was isolated from the blood of a patient with endocarditis and characterized. The strain was affiliated with the alphaproteobacterial genus Brevundimonas, with Brevundimonas diminuta LMG 2089T (98.3 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity) and Brevundimonas terrae KSL-145T (97.5 %) as its closest relatives. This affiliation was supported by chemotaxonomic data: the G+C content was 66.3 mol %, the major polar lipids were phosphatidyl diacylglycerol, sulfoquinovosyl diacylglycerol and phosphatidyl glucopyranosyl diacylglycerol and the major fatty acids were summed feature 7 (one or more of C18 : 1 ω7c, C18 : 1 ω9t and C18 : 1 ω12t) and C16 : 0. Strain LMG 2337T displayed an unusually broad substrate spectrum. The results from DNA–DNA hybridization and physiological and biochemical tests allowed the genotypic and phenotypic differentiation of strain LMG 2337T from all of the type strains of hitherto-described Brevundimonas species. The strain therefore represents a novel species, for which the name Brevundimonas vancanneytii sp. nov. is proposed, with type strain LMG 2337T (=CCUG 1797T =ATCC 14736T).

Sixteen Gram-negative, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming isolates were obtained from a nitrifying inoculum. Analysis of repetitive sequence-based PCR and SDS-PAGE banding patterns, 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis and DNA–DNA hybridizations showed that the isolates belonged to various groups within the genus Pseudomonas. One group of isolates could be assigned to Pseudomonas migulae and a second to Pseudomonas veronii. Two groups could be differentiated genotypically from each other and from all other currently known Pseudomonas species. Analysis of the fatty acid composition and physiological and biochemical tests allowed differentiation of these groups from their closest phylogenetic neighbours and they therefore represent two novel species within the genus Pseudomonas, for which the names Pseudomonas peli sp. nov. and Pseudomonas borbori sp. nov. are proposed, with strains LMG 23201T (=DSM 17833T=R-20805T) and LMG 23199T (=DSM 17834T=R-20821T), respectively, as the type strains.

A Gram-negative, obligately aerobic, rod-shaped bacterium was isolated from greenhouse soil used to cultivate lettuce. The strain, GH2-10T, was characterized on the basis of phenotypic and genotypic data. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that the isolate belonged to the genus Devosia, with highest sequence similarity (98.5 %) to Devosia riboflavina IFO 13584T. Sequence similarities with other strains tested were below 97.0 %. Strain GH2-10T had Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone and C18 : 1 ω7c and C16 : 0 as the major fatty acids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 59.5 mol%. The results of DNA–DNA hybridization experiments (47 % relatedness between D. riboflavina DSM 7230T and strain GH2-10T) and physiological and biochemical tests suggested that strain GH2-10T represents a novel species of the genus Devosia, for which the name Devosia soli sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is GH2-10T (=KACC 11509T=DSM 17780T).

Two Gram-negative, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming bacteria (CCUG 39402T and CCUG 39797), isolated from different water sources, were investigated in a polyphasic study. The two isolates shared 100 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity and it was shown that they belonged to the Betaproteobacteria, most closely related to Polaromonas vacuolata (97·8 %) and Polaromonas naphthalenivorans (97·8 %). A polyamine pattern with 2-hydroxyputrescine and putrescine, as well as ubiquinone Q-8, were in agreement with characteristics of Betaproteobacteria. The presence of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine, and major fatty acids C16 : 1 ω7c, C16 : 0 and C17 : 0 cyclo supported the affiliation of the two strains to the genus Polaromonas. The results of DNA–DNA hybridization and physiological and biochemical tests allowed genotypic and phenotypic differentiation of the two isolates from the two Polaromonas species with validly published names. They therefore represent a novel species, for which the name Polaromonas aquatica sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain CCUG 39402T (=CIP 108776T).

A Gram-positive, aerobic, coccus-shaped, non-endospore-forming bacterium (Gsoil 633T) was isolated from soil from a ginseng field in Pocheon province in South Korea. The novel isolate was characterized in order to determine its taxonomic position. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities, strain Gsoil 633T was shown to belong to the family Propionibacteriaceae. The closest phylogenetic relative was Microlunatus phosphovorus DSM 19555T, with 96.1 % sequence similarity; the sequence similarity to other members of the family was less than 95.4 %. The isolate was characterized chemotaxonomically as having ll-2,6-diaminopimelic acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan, MK-9(H4) as the predominant menaquinone and anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0 as the major fatty acids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 69.8 mol%. The morphological and chemotaxonomic properties of the isolate were consistent with those of M. phosphovorus, but the results of physiological and biochemical tests allowed the phenotypic differentiation of strain Gsoil 633T from this species. Therefore, strain Gsoil 633T represents a novel species, for which the name Microlunatus ginsengisoli sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Gsoil 633T (=KCTC 13940T=DSM 17942T).
