Moderately Halophilic Bacterium

A Gram-staining-positive, moderately halophilic bacterium, designated strain Amb31T, was isolated from water of the hypersaline lake Aran-Bidgol in Iran and characterized taxonomically using a polyphasic approach. Cells were rods, motile and able to produce ellipsoidal endospores at a central position in swollen sporangia. Strain Amb31T was facultatively anaerobic and catalase- and oxidase-positive. The strain grew in a complex medium supplemented with 3–25 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum 7.5–10 %). Optimal growth was at 30–35 °C and pH 7.5. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons showed that strain Amb31T belonged to the genus Lentibacillus; it exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 96.8 and 96.4 % to Lentibacillus salicampi SF-20T and Lentibacillus salinarum AHS-1T, respectively, and values of 95.9–94.7 % to the type strains of other recognized species of Lentibacillus. The cell-wall peptidoglycan of strain Amb31T was based on meso-diaminopimelic acid and MK-7 was the respiratory isoprenoid quinone. The major fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0 (44.7 %), iso-C16 : 0 (21.4 %) and anteiso-C17 : 0 (15.9 %) and the polar lipid pattern consisted of phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, five phospholipids and a glycolipid. The DNA G+C content was 44.1 mol%. All these features confirmed the placement of strain Amb31T within the genus Lentibacillus and the strain could be clearly differentiated from strains of the other species of Lentibacillus on the basis of several phenotypic, genotypic and chemotaxonomic features. DNA–DNA relatedness with the type strain of the most closely related strain, L. salicampi DSM 16425T, was 28 %. Therefore, strain Amb31T represents a novel species of the genus Lentibacillus, for which the name Lentibacillus persicus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Amb31T (=CCM 7683T =CECT 7524T =DSM 22530T =LMG 25304T).

Moderately Halophilic Bacterium

Three Gram-positive, moderately halophilic bacteria, designated YI7-61T, IA7 and DB2, were isolated from sediments of Aiding salt lake in the Xinjiang region of China. Cells of the strains were rod-shaped, motile by means of peritrichous flagella and produced ellipsoidal spores. Colonies were pale yellow in colour. The strains grew optimally at 30–37 °C, pH 6–7 and 3–7 % (w/v) NaCl. The diamino acid in the murein was meso-diaminopimelic acid and the major quinone system was MK-7. The major cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. The DNA G+C content was 44.6–45.0 mol%. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strains YI7-61T, IA7 and DB2 were closely related to members of the genus Terribacillus and showed 96.8–97.6, 96.4–97.2 and 95.4–95.5 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with Terribacillus halophilus 002-051T, Terribacillus saccharophilus RB589 and Terribacillus goriensis CL-GR16T, respectively. DNA–DNA relatedness among the isolates was 88–92 % and strain YI7-61T shared 24, 18 and 18 % DNA–DNA relatedness with T. halophilus JCM 21760T, T. saccharophilus JCM 21759T and T. goriensis DSM 18252T, respectively. On the basis of phenotypic and phylogenetic distinctiveness, the three isolates should be placed in the genus Terribacillus as representatives of a novel species, for which the name Terribacillus aidingensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YI7-61T (=CGMCC 1.8913T =NBRC 105790T).

Emended Description

A polyphasic taxonomic study was performed on 22 thermotolerant, aerobic, endospore-forming bacteria from dairy environments. Seventeen isolates were retrieved from raw milk, one from a filter cloth and four from grass, straw or milking equipment. These latter four isolates (R-6546, R-7499, R-7764 and R-7440) were identified as Bacillus thermoamylovorans based on DNA–DNA hybridizations (values above 70 % with Bacillus thermoamylovorans LMG 18084T) but showed discrepancies in characteristics with the original species description, so an emended description of this species is given. According to 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis and DNA–DNA hybridization experiments, the remaining 18 isolates (R-6488T, R-28193, R-6491, R-6492, R-7336, R-33367, R-6486, R-6770, R-31288, R-28160, R-26358, R-7632, R-26955, R-26950, R-33520, R-6484, R-26954 and R-7165) represented one single species, most closely related to Bacillus thermoamylovorans (93.9 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), for which the name Bacillus thermolactis is proposed. Cells were Gram-stain-positive, facultatively anaerobic, endospore-forming rods that grew optimally at 40–50 °C. The cell wall peptidoglycan type of strain R-6488T, the proposed type strain, was A1γ based on meso-diaminopimelic acid. Major fatty acids of the strains were C16 : 0 (28.0 %), iso-C16 : 0 (12.1 %) and iso-C15 : 0 (12.0 %). MK-7 was the predominant menaquinone, and major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and some unidentified phospholipids. DNA G+C content was 35.0 mol%. Phenotypic properties allowed discrimination from other thermotolerant species of the genus Bacillus and supported the description of the novel species Bacillus thermolactis, with strain R-6488T ( = LMG 25569T  = DSM 23332T) as the proposed type strain.

Two actinomycete strains, ID05-A0653T and ID06-A0464T, were isolated from soils of West Timor and Lombok island, respectively, in Indonesia. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis clearly demonstrated that the isolates belonged to the family Pseudonocardiaceae and were closely related to the genus Actinophytocola. Strains ID05-A0653T and ID06-A0464T exhibited 98.1 and 98.2 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, respectively, with Actinophytocola oryzae GMKU 367T. The isolates grew well on ISP media and produced white aerial mycelium. Short spore chains were formed directly on the substrate mycelium. The isolates contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, arabinose and galactose as cell-wall components, MK-9(H4) as the sole isoprenoid quinone, iso-C16 : 0 as the major cellular fatty acid and phosphatidylethanolamine as the diagnostic polar lipid. The DNA G+C contents of strains ID05-A0653T and ID06-A0464T were 69.7 and 71.2 mol%, respectively. On the basis of phenotypic characteristics, DNA–DNA relatedness and 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons, strains ID05-A0653T and ID06-A0464T each represent a novel species of the genus Actinophytocola, for which the names Actinophytocola timorensis sp. nov. (type strain ID05-A0653T  = BTCC B-673T  = NBRC 105524T) and Actinophytocola corallina sp. nov. (type strain ID06-A0464T  = BTCC B-674T  = NBRC 105525T) are proposed.

Moderately Halophilic Bacterium

A Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped, motile bacterium, designated strain 43T, was isolated from a Japanese salty food and then subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. Strain 43T is moderately halophilic, growing at NaCl concentrations in the range 5–25 % (w/v), with optimum growth between 7.5 and 12.5 % (w/v) NaCl. Growth occurs at temperatures from 15 to 42 °C (optimally at 28–37 °C) and at pH 5.5–9.0 (optimally at pH 7.0–8.0). A phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons revealed that strain 43T belongs to the genus Chromohalobacter. The closest relatives were Chromohalobacter canadensis ATCC 43984T (99.3 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), Chromohalobacter beijerinckii ATCC 19372T (99.1 %), Chromohalobacter sarecensis LV4T (98.3 %), Chromohalobacter nigrandesensis LTS-4NT (97.9 %) and Chromohalobacter marismortui ATCC 17056T (97.9 %). The DNA G+C content was 62.9 mol%, which is within the range described for the genus Chromohalobacter. DNA–DNA hybridization studies between strain 43T and C. canadensis CECT 5385T and C. beijerinckii DSM 7218T showed 38 and 49 % relatedness, respectively; lower DNA–DNA hybridization percentages were obtained with respect to other related Chromohalobacter species. The major fatty acids of strain 43T were C16 : 0, C19 : 0 cyclo ω8c and C12 : 0 3-OH. Overall, the phenotypic, genotypic and phylogenetic results demonstrated that strain 43T represents a novel species within the genus Chromohalobacter. The name Chromohalobacter japonicus sp. nov. is proposed, with strain 43T (=CECT 7219T =CCM 7416T) as the type strain.

A moderately halophilic, Gram-negative bacterium, designated strain BH843T, was isolated from a solar saltern in Korea and subjected to a taxonomic analysis. Strain BH843T grew at salinities of 1–14 % (w/v) NaCl and at temperatures of 10–40 °C. The cells were motile cocci or short rods with single flagella and contained C16 : 0, C19 : 0 cyclo ω8c and C17 : 0 cyclo as the major fatty acids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 66 mol% and the predominant ubiquinone was Q-9. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analyses showed that strain BH843T formed a distinct phyletic line within the genus Halomonas, and the levels of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with respect to recognized Halomonas species were below 95.1 %. The levels of DNA–DNA relatedness between strain BH843T and the type strains of phylogenetically closely related Halomonas species were below 25 %. On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and molecular data, strain BH843T represents a novel species within the genus Halomonas, for which the name Halomonas kribbensis is proposed. The type strain is BH843T (=KCTC 12584T=DSM 17892T).

A Gram-reaction-positive, motile, coccus-shaped actinobacterium, designated strain T2A-S27T, was isolated from a roof tile in Oporto (Portugal) and studied using a polyphasic approach. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of the novel isolate showed high similarity to that of Kineococcus marinus KST3-3T (97.8 % sequence similarity). Strain T2A-S27T showed lower 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities with other members of the genus Kineococcus and members of the family Kineosporiaceae (<94 %). A phylogenetic tree, based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, showed that strain T2A-S27T formed a coherent clade with the type strain of K. marinus and Quadrisphaera granulorum. The isolate was characterized by the presence of meso-diaminopimelic acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan, MK-9(H2) as the predominant menaquinone and a polar lipid profile consisting of diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylglycerol. The fatty acid profile was dominated by anteiso-C15 : 0. The DNA G+C content was 76.9 mol%. The low level of DNA–DNA relatedness to K. marinus (46–47 %) and the results of the chemotaxonomic and physiological studies clearly distinguished strain T2A-S27T from recognized species of the genus Kineococcus. On the basis of its phylogenetic position and phenotypic traits, strain T2A-S27T ( = LMG 24148T  = CECT 7306T  = DSM 23768T) represents a novel species of a new genus in the family Kineosporiaceae, for which the name Pseudokineococcus lusitanus gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The misclassified species K. marinus is transferred to the new genus as Pseudokineococcus marinus comb. nov. The type strain of Pseudokineococcus marinus is KST3-3T ( = KCCM 42250T  = NRRL B-24439T).

Two strains, PB34T and PB261T, were isolated from grass soil sampled in Daejeon, Republic of Korea. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence studies showed the two bacteria to be clearly affiliated with the phylum Actinobacteria and most closely related to the genus Geodermatophilus , showing 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities to the type strains of species of the genus Geodermatophilus of 95.0–96.3 % and sharing 98.5 % similarity between the two strains. The two strains were Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, motile and rod-shaped bacteria. The peptidoglycan contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9(H4) and MK-9(H0). The major fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0, iso-C17 : 0 and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c and/or C16 : 1ω6c) for strain PB34T and iso-C14 : 0, iso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 and C16 : 0 for strain PB261T. The G+C contents of the genomic DNA of strains PB34T and PB261T were 73.2 mol% and 74.1 mol%, respectively. Thus, based on the evidence of a polyphasic study, it is proposed that strains PB34T and PB261T represent two novel species, for which the names Geodermatophilus soli sp. nov. (type strain PB34T = KCTC 19880T = JCM 17785T) and Geodermatophilus terrae sp. nov. (type strain PB261T = KCTC 19881T = JCM 17786T) are proposed.

Moderately Halophilic Bacterium

A Gram-negative, aerobic, moderately halophilic bacterium, designated Set74T, was isolated from brine of a salt concentrator at Ain Oulmene, Algeria. The strain grew optimally at 37–40 °C, at pH 6.5–7.0 and with 5–7.5 % (w/v) NaCl and used various organic compounds as sole carbon, nitrogen and energy sources. Ubiquinone 9 (Q-9) was the major lipoquinone. The main cellular fatty acids were C16 : 0, C18 : 1ω9c, summed feature 7 (ECL 18.846; C19 : 0 cyclo ω10c and/or C19 : 1ω6c), C12 : 0 3-OH, C16 : 1ω9c, C18 : 0 and C12 : 0. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 57.4 mol%. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain Set74T was a member of the genus Marinobacter. The closest relatives of strain Set74T were Marinobacter santoriniensis NKSG1T (97.5 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity) and Marinobacter koreensis DD-M3T (97.4 %). DNA–DNA relatedness between strain Set74T and M. santoriniensis DSM 21262T and M. koreensis DSM 17924T was 45 and 37 %, respectively. On the basis of the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic features, a novel species, Marinobacter oulmenensis sp. nov., is proposed. The type strain is Set74T ( = CECT 7499T  = DSM 22359T).

Aerial Hyphae

A novel streptomycete, designated strain HM 35T, was isolated from soil in Isfahan city, Iran. Strain HM 35T produced a branched substrate mycelium and aerial hyphae that developed into short, compact, spiral spore chains with grey rugose spores at the tips of the aerial hyphae. On some media, these spirals coalesced into dark masses of spores with age. Whole-cell hydrolysates of strain HM 35T contained ll-diaminopimelic acid, glucose and ribose. Phospholipids detected were phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol mannosides, hydroxy-phosphatidylethanolamine, lyso-phosphatidylethanolamine and hydroxy-lyso-phosphatidylethanolamine. MK-9(H4), MK-9(H6) and MK-9(H8) were the predominant menaquinones. The major fatty acids were iso- and anteiso-branched components. The chemotaxonomic characteristics of the novel isolate matched those described for members of the genus Streptomyces. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain HM 35T showed highest similarity to Streptomyces rapamycinicus NRRL 5491T (99.2 %), Streptomyces violaceusniger DSM 40563T (99.1 %), Streptomyces javensis DSM 41764T (99.1 %) and Streptomyces yogyakartensis DSM 41766T (99.1 %). The novel strain formed a distinct monophyletic line within the 16S rRNA gene sequence tree. The level of DNA–DNA relatedness between strain HM 35T and the type strain of S. rapamycinicus was 72.7 %. Strain HM 35T showed the typical morphology found among members of the S. violaceusniger/Streptomyces hygroscopicus group but could be clearly differentiated from closely related species based on other phenotypic markers. Phenotypic and genotypic data thus indicate that strain HM 35T represents a novel species of the genus Streptomyces, for which the name Streptomyces iranensis is proposed. The type strain is HM 35T (=DSM 41954T=CCUG 57623T).

A Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, non-motile, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain PB158T, was isolated from grass soil sampled in Daejeon, Republic of Korea. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence studies placed the novel isolate in the class Actinobacteria, and most closely related to Jatrophihabitans endophyticus S9-650T and Jatrophihabitans soli KIS75-12T with 98.1 and 97.0 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, respectively. Cells of strain PB158T formed yellow colonies on R2A agar, contained MK-9(H4) as the predominant menaquinone, meso-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid, and included iso-C16 : 0, C18 : 1ω9c, and C17 : 1ω8c as the major fatty acids (>5 %). The acyl type was found to be N-glycolylated. The G+C content of genomic DNA of strain PB158T was 72.4 mol%. In DNA–DNA hybridizations, the DNA–DNA relatedness value observed between strain PB158T and the type strain of J. endophyticus was 21.8 % indicating that the two strains do not belong to the same species. Thus, the combined genotypic and phenotypic data supported the conclusion that strain PB158T represents a novel species of the genus Jatrophihabitans, for which the name Jatrophihabitans fulvus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is PB158T ( = KCTC 33605T = JCM 30448T).
