Farmed Atlantic Salmon

Two bacterial strains, designated Sa 1147-06T and Sa 1143-06, were isolated from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) farmed in Lake Chapo, Chile, and were studied using a polyphasic approach. Both isolates were very similar; cells were rod-shaped, formed yellow-pigmented colonies and were Gram-reaction-negative. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strains Sa 1147-06T and Sa 1143-06 shared 100 % sequence similarity and showed 98.9 and 97.5 % sequence similarity to Chryseobacterium jeonii AT1047T and Chryseobacterium antarcticum AT1013T, respectively. Sequence similarities to all other members of the genus Chryseobacterium were below 97.3 %. The major fatty acids of strain Sa 1147-06T were iso-C13 : 0, iso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0 and iso-C17 : 1 ω9c, with iso-C15 : 0 3-OH, iso-C16 : 0 3-OH and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH constituting the major hydroxylated fatty acids. DNA–DNA hybridizations with C. jeonii JMSNU 14049T and C. antarcticum JMNSU 14040T gave relatedness values of 20.7 % (reciprocal 15.1 %) and 15.7 % (reciprocal 25.7 %), respectively. Together, the DNA–DNA hybridization results and differentiating biochemical properties showed that strains Sa 1147-06T and Sa 1143-06 represent a novel species, for which the name Chryseobacterium chaponense sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Sa 1147-06T (=DSM 23145T =CCM 7737T).

A novel actinomycete, designated strain GK-6T, was isolated from a soil sample from Nanning, Guangxi province, PR China. The strain grew at 20–40 °C, pH 6.0–11.0 and with 0–7.0 % NaCl. It formed well-developed aerial and vegetative mycelia. The aerial mycelium was white and the vegetative mycelium was yellow. The long branching aerial mycelia yielded rod-shaped arthrospores, the spores had smooth surfaces and were non-motile. Strain Gk-6T contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid, the whole-cell sugars were galactose, glucose and arabinose. Major fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, iso-C15 : 0 and C17 : 0. MK-9(H4) was the predominant menaquinone. The polar phospholipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylethanolamine-containing hydroxylated fatty acids, diphosphatidylglycerol, ninhydrin-positive glycophospholipid and an unknown phospholipid. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 73.4 mol%. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that the organism was a member of the genus Actinokineospora and its closest relative among recognized species was Actinokineospora soli JCM 17695T (97.7 % sequence similarity). But the phenotypic characteristics of strain Gk-6T were significantly different from those of A. soli JCM 17695T, and DNA–DNA hybridization showed low relatedness (22.6–28.3 %) between strain Gk-6T and JCM 17695T. On the basis of the phenotypic and phylogenetic data, strain Gk-6T represents a novel species of the genus Actinokineospora, and the name Actinokineospora guangxiensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Gk-6T ( = DSM 46779 T = CGMCC 4.7154T).

Taxonomic Studies

Two Gram-staining-negative, aerobic, non-motile, red-pigment and rod-shaped bacterial strains, designated RSP19T and RSR28, were isolated from lake water and subjected to polyphasic taxonomic studies. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strains RSP19T and RSR28 exhibited 91.4–95.7 % similarity to the type strains of existing species of the genus Pedobacter. The species most closely related phylogenetically were Pedobacter daechungensis (95.7 % sequence similarity), Pedobacter lentus (95.4 %), Pedobacter glucosidilyticus (94.5 %), Pedobacter panaciterrae (94.5 %) and Pedobacter terricola (94.2 %). MK-7 was the sole respiratory quinone. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, one unidentified aminolipid and several unidentified polar lipids. The predominant fatty acids were C16 : 1ω7c, iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH. The genomic DNA G+C contents were 34.3 and 33.9 mol% for strains RSP19T and RSR28, respectively. Based on the phenotypic characteristics, biochemical properties and genetic analysis, strains RSP19T and RSR28 clearly represent a novel species of the genus Pedobacter, for which the name Pedobacter alpinus is proposed. The type strain is RSP19T ( = CGMCC 1.14040T = KCTC 42456T = NBRC 110967T).

Two bacterial strains, designated GH34-4T and GH41-7T, were isolated from greenhouse soil cultivated with cucumber. The bacteria were strictly aerobic, Gram-negative, rod-shaped and oxidase- and catalase-positive. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that these strains belong to the genus Lysobacter within the Gammaproteobacteria. Strain GH34-4T showed highest sequence similarity to Lysobacter yangpyeongensis GH19-3T (97.5 %) and Lysobacter koreensis Dae16T (96.4 %), and strain GH41-7T showed highest sequence similarity to Lysobacter antibioticus DSM 2044T (97.5 %), Lysobacter enzymogenes DSM 2043T (97.5 %) and Lysobacter gummosus ATCC 29489T (97.4 %). Levels of DNA–DNA relatedness indicated that strains GH34-4T and GH41-7T represented species clearly different from L. yangpyeongensis, L. antibioticus, L. enzymogenes and L. gummosus. The major cellular fatty acids of strains GH34-4T and GH41-7T were iso-C16 : 0, iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C17 : 1 ω9c, and the major isoprenoid quinone was Q-8. The DNA G+C contents of GH34-4T and GH41-7T were 62.5 and 66.6 mol%, respectively. On the basis of the polyphasic taxonomic data presented, it is evident that each of these strains represents a novel species of the genus Lysobacter, for which the names Lysobacter niabensis sp. nov. (type strain GH34-4T=KACC 11587T=DSM 18244T) and Lysobacter niastensis sp. nov. (type strain GH41-7T=KACC 11588T=DSM 18481T) are proposed.

Five phytopathogenic bacterial strains, MAFF 301449T, MAFF 301450, MAFF 301451, MAFF 301452, and MAFF 301453, which were isolated from bud blight lesions of cyclamen (Cyclamen persicum Mill.) in Miyagi, Japan, were subjected to polyphasic taxonomic characterisation. The cells were Gram-reaction-negative, aerobic, non-spore-forming, motile with one to five polar flagella, and rod-shaped. Analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that they belong to the genus Pseudomonas , with Pseudomonas extremaustralis 14-3T (99.79 % sequence similarity), Pseudomonas trivialis DSM 14937T (99.79 %), Pseudomonas poae DSM 14936T (99.72 %), and Pseudomonas antarctica CMS 35T (99.72 %) as their relatives. The genomic DNA G+C content was 60.3 mol% and the major fatty acids (>5 % of the total fatty acids) were C16 : 0, summed feature 3 (C16 : 1 ω7c/C16 : 1 ω6c), summed feature 8 (C18 : 1 ω7c/C18 : 1 ω6c), and C17 : 0 cyclo. Phylogenetic analysis using the rpoD gene sequences and phylogenomic analyses based on the whole genome sequences demonstrated that the strains are members of the Pseudomonas fluorescens subgroup, but form a monophyletic and robust clade separated from their relatives. Average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridisation analyses with the closely related Pseudomonas species corroborated their novel species status. The strains were differentiated from their relatives by phenotypic characteristics, pathogenicity towards cyclamen, cellular fatty acid composition, and whole-cell MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry profiles. Based on the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, and genotypic data obtained, we conclude that the strains represent a novel Pseudomonas species, for which we propose the name Pseudomonas cyclaminis sp. nov.; the type strain is MAFF 301449T (=ICMP 23720T).

This paper presents the results of the research on the number, taxonomic composition, and biochemical properties of bacterial strains isolated from the alkaline Solvay distillery lime, deposited at the repository in Janikowo (central Poland). Fifteen strains out of 17 were facultative alkaliphiles and moderate halophiles, and two were alkalitolerants and moderate halophiles. The number of aerobic bacteria cultured in alkaline lime was approximately 105 CFU ml-1, and the total number of bacteria was 107 cells g-1. According to 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, nine strains belonged to the genus Bacillus, six to the genus Halomonas, one to the genus Planococcus, and one to the genus Microcella. Strains that hydrolyse starch and protein were the most numerous. Esterase (C4) and esterase lipase (C8) were detected in the majority of bacterial strains. Twelve strains exhibited α-glucosidase activity and nine, naphtol-AS-BI-phosphohydrolase activity. The present study proves that alkaliphilic bacteria of this type may constitute a source of potentially useful extremozymes.

Two Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile bacterial strains, 36D10-4-7T and 30C10-4-7T, were isolated from bark canker tissue of Populus × euramericana, respectively. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain 36D10-4-7T shows 98.0 % sequence similarity to Sphingomonas adhaesiva DSM 7418T, and strain 30C10-4-7T shows highest sequence similarity to Sphingobacterium arenae H-12T (95.6 %). Average nucleotide identity analysis indicates that strain 36D10-4-7T is a novel member different from recognized species in the genus Sphingomonas . The main fatty acids and respiratory quinone detected in strain 36D10-4-7T are C18 : 1  ω7c and/or C18 : 1  ω6c and Q-10, respectively. The polar lipids are diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, aminolipid, phosphatidylethanolamine, sphingoglycolipid, two uncharacterized phospholipids and two uncharacterized lipids. For strain 30C10-4-7T, the major fatty acids and menaquinone are iso-C15 : 0, C16 : 1  ω7c and/or C16 : 1  ω6c and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH and MK-7, respectively. The polar lipid profile includes phosphatidylethanolamine, phospholipids, two aminophospholipids and six unidentified lipids. Based on phenotypic and genotypic characteristics, these two strains represent two novel species within the genera Sphingomonas and Sphingobacterium . The name Sphingomonas corticis sp. nov. (type strain 36D10-4-7T=CFCC 13112T=KCTC 52799T) and Sphingobacterium corticibacterium sp. nov. (type strain 30C10-4-7T=CFCC 13069T=KCTC 52797T) are proposed.

Gene Sequence Analysis

Five heterotrophic, aerobic, halotolerant and pigmented bacterial strains with gliding motility were isolated from Antarctic sea water; one other isolate was collected from the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus intermedius in the Gulf of Peter the Great in the Sea of Japan. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that the strains are members of the family Flavobacteriaceae, the nearest neighbour (with 97·1 % sequence similarity) being the misclassified species [Cytophaga] marinoflava. DNA–DNA hybridization experiments and chemotaxonomic and phenotypic analyses demonstrated that the six novel isolates represent a single species distinct from [C.] marinoflava. On the basis of its separate phylogenetic lineage (the nearest neighbours show 92 % sequence similarity), [C.] marinoflava is reclassified as Leeuwenhoekiella marinoflava gen. nov., comb. nov. A second species of this new genus, Leeuwenhoekiella aequorea sp. nov., is proposed for the six novel isolates, with strain LMG 22550T (=CCUG 50091T) as the type strain.

Taxonomic Methods

A non-lipophilic coryneform bacterium isolated from an anaerobic Bactec bottle inoculated with an ankle aspirate from a male patient was characterized by phenotypic and molecular taxonomic methods. Chemotaxonomic investigations revealed the presence of short-chain mycolic acids in the cell wall of the bacterium, a feature consistent with members of the genus Corynebacterium. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis demonstrated that the isolate displayed 92.0–99.0 % gene sequence similarity with members of the genus Corynebacterium, with Corynebacterium ureicelerivorans as the most closely related phylogenetic species (99.0 % gene sequence similarity). However, the isolate could be genomically separated from C. ureicelerivorans on the basis of DNA–DNA hybridization studies (39.5 % relatedness). Furthermore, the isolate could also be differentiated from C. ureicelerivorans and other species of the genus Corynebacterium on the basis of biochemical properties. Based on both phenotypic and phylogenetic evidence, it is proposed that this isolate be classified as representing a novel species, Corynebacterium pilbarense sp. nov. (type strain IMMIB WACC 658T=DSM 45350T=CCUG 57942T).

A yellow-pigmented, Gram-reaction-negative bacterium isolated from a human clinical source was investigated using a polyphasic approach in order to clarify its taxonomic status. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that the new isolate constituted a distinct phyletic line within the genus Chryseobacterium, displaying >2.8 % sequence divergence with recognized species of this genus. The generic assignment was confirmed by chemotaxonomic data which revealed a fatty acid profile consisting of straight-chain saturated, monounsaturated and branched-chain fatty acids of iso-/anteiso-types as well as 3-hydroxylated fatty acids; a menaquinone with six isoprene units (MK-6) as the predominant respiratory quinone and sym-homospermidine as the predominant polyamine. The novel isolate could be distinguished from other members of the genus Chryseobacterium by a set of distinct biochemical properties. On the basis of phenotypic and phylogenetic evidence, it is proposed that the new isolate represents a novel species of the genus Chryseobacterium for which the name Chryseobacterium treverense sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is IMMIB L-1519T (=DSM 22251T=CCUG 57657T).
