A taxonomic study was carried out on a novel strain, designated CK-I3-6T, which was isolated from deep-sea sediment of the south-west Indian Ocean Ridge. Cells were Gram-reaction-negative, oxidase- and catalase-positive, rod-shaped and non-motile. Growth was observed at 4–38 °C and in 1–12 % (w/v) NaCl. Cells were able to degrade gelatin and oxidize thiosulfate but did not reduce nitrate. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain CK-I3-6T belonged to the genus Citreicella with a sequence similarity of 97.3 % to Citreicella thiooxidans CHLG 1T, while similarities with other taxa were <95.7 %. DNA–DNA hybridization showed that strain CK-I3-6T and C. thiooxidans CHLG 1T showed a low DNA–DNA relatedness (48±3 %). The principal fatty acids were C16 : 0 (7.8 %), C18 : 1ω7c (66.6 %), summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω6c and/or C16 : 1ω7c; 6.3 %) and C19 : 0ω8c cyclo (10.0 %). The chromosomal DNA G+C content was 67.5 mol%. On the basis of the combined genotypic and phenotypic data, strain CK-I3-6T represents a novel species of the genus Citreicella, for which the name Citreicella marina sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CK-I3-6T ( = CCTCC AB 209064T  = LMG 25230T  = MCCC 1A03060T).

A novel strain, 22II-S11-z3T, was isolated from the deep-sea sediment of the Atlantic Ocean. The bacterium was aerobic, Gram-staining-negative, oxidase-positive and catalase-negative, oval- to rod-shaped, and non-motile. Growth was observed at salinities of 1–9 % NaCl and temperatures of 10–45 °C. The isolate could hydrolyse aesculin and Tweens 20, 40 and 80, but not gelatin. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain 22II-S11-z3T belonged to the genus Aestuariivita, with highest sequence similarity to Aestuariivita boseongensis KCTC 42052T (97.5 %). The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values between strain 22II-S11-z3T and A. boseongensis KCTC 42052T were 71.5 % and 20.0 ± 2.3 %, respectively. The G+C content of the chromosomal DNA was 65.5 mol%. The principal fatty acids (>5 %) were summed feature 8 (C18 : 1ω7c/ω6c) (35.2 %), C19 : 0 cyclo ω8c (20.9 %), C16 : 0 (11.8 %), 11-methyl C18 : 1ω7c (11.4 %) and C12 : 1 3-OH (9.4 %). The respiratory quinone was determined to be Q-10. Diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, nine unidentified phospholipids, one unidentified aminolipid and two unidentified lipids were present. The combined genotypic and phenotypic data show that strain 22II-S11-z3T represents a novel species of the genus Aestuariivita, for which the name Aestuariivita atlantica sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain 22II-S11-z3T ( = KCTC 42276T = MCCC 1A09432T).

A taxonomic study employing a polyphasic approach was carried out on strain FT102T, which was isolated from a deep-sea sediment sample collected in the south-west Indian Ocean at a depth of 2784 m. The strain was Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped and non-spore-forming. It grew optimally at 37–42 °C, pH 6.5–8.5 and in the presence of 1–4 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences confirmed the separation of the novel strain from recognized members of the genus Kangiella that are available in public databases. Strain FT102T exhibited 95.5–98.6 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to the type strains of the eight recognized species of the genus Kangiella. The chemotaxonomically characteristic fatty acid iso-C15:0 and ubiquinone Q-8 were also detected. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine. The DNA G+C content of strain FT102T was 45.0 mol%. The mean DNA–DNA relatedness values between strain FT102T and the type strains of Kangiella aquimarina and Kangiella koreensis were 47.3 % and 13.7 %, respectively. The combined results of phylogenetic, physiological and chemotaxonomic studies indicated that strain FT102T was affiliated with the genus Kangiella but differed from the recognized species of the genus Kangiella. Therefore, strain FT102T represents a novel species of the genus Kangiella, for which the name Kangiella profundi sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is FT102T ( = CGMCC 1.12959T = KCTC 42297T = JCM 30232T)

A taxonomic study was carried out on strain PA15-N-34T, which was isolated from deep-sea sediment of Pacific Ocean. The bacterium was Gram-stain-positive, oxidase- and catalase-positive and rod-shaped. Growth was observed at salinity of 0–15.0% NaCl and at temperatures of 10–45 °C. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain PA15-N-34T belonged to the genus Alcanivorax , with the highest sequence similarity to Alcanivorax profundi MTEO17T (97.7 %), followed by Alcanivorax nanhaiticus 19 m-6T (97.3 %) and 12 other species of the genus Alcanivorax (93.4 %–97.0 %). The average nucleotide identity and DNA–DNA hybridization values between strain PA15-N-34T and type strains of the genus Alcanivorax were 71.46–81.78% and 18.7–25.2 %, respectively. The principal fatty acids (>10 %) were summed feature 8 (C18 : 1  ω7c and/or C18 : 1  ω6c; 31.2 %), C16 : 0 (25.0 %) and summed feature 3 (14.6 %). The DNA G+C content was 57.15 mol%. The polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, four unidentified aminolipids and three unidentified lipids. The novel strain can be differentiated from its closest type strain by a negative test for urease and the presence of diphosphatidylglycerol and aminolipid. The combined genotypic and phenotypic data show that strain PA15-N-34T represents a novel species within the genus Alcanivorax , for which the name Alcanivorax sediminis sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain PA15-N-34T (=MCCC 1A14738T=KCTC 72163T).

The taxonomic status of an actinobacterium that changed colour during growth, strain 42H12-1T, isolated from deep-sea sediment collected from the Atlantic Ocean, was established using a combination of genotypic and phenotypic data. Strain 42H12-1T formed a distinct branch in the 16S rRNA gene phylogenetic tree together with the type strains in the genus Modestobacter. The highest sequence similarity by blast analysis was to Modestobacter versicolor CP153-2T (98.5 %) and the second-highest sequence similarity was to Modestobacter multiseptatus AA-826T (97.5 %). DNA–DNA relatedness of only 12 % (sd 1.82 %) between strain 42H12-1T and M. versicolor DSM 16678T differentiated them as members of separate genomic species. Colonies of strain 42H12-1T were black on oligotrophic medium, but orange to red, turning black, on copiotrophic medium. The peptidoglycan contained meso-diaminopimelic acid. The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol and an unknown aminophospholipid. The predominant menaquinone was MK-9(H4). The major fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0 and C17 : 1ω8c. The DNA G+C content was 72.3±1 mol%. Strain 42H12-1T ( = DSM 45201T  = CGMCC 4.5581T) is assigned as the type strain of a novel species of the genus Modestobacter, for which the name Modestobacter marinus sp. nov. is proposed.

A psychrotolerant, obligately alkaliphilic, collagenolytic enzyme-producing bacterium, strain AC40T, was isolated from a deep-sea sediment off Torishima Island, Japan, at a depth of 4026 m. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that this bacterium was closely related to members of the genus Alkalimonas, with highest sequence similarity (97.9 %) to Alkalimonas delamerensis 1E1T. DNA–DNA hybridization experiments of strain AC40T with A. delamerensis 1E1T revealed a level of relatedness of less than 30 %. Cells of strain AC40T were strictly aerobic, rod-shaped, Gram-negative and motile by means of a single polar flagellum. The organism grew over a range of temperatures from 5 to 37 °C and at initial pH values between 7.0 and 10.5. Optimal growth was observed at 33 °C and at pH 8.5–10.0. Cellular fatty acids of strain AC40T were predominantly saturated and mono-unsaturated straight-chain components (C16 : 0 and C18 : 1). The major isoprenoid quinone was Q-8. The G+C content of the DNA was 49.3 mol%. Phylogenetic characteristics, physiological properties and DNA–DNA hybridization data indicate that strain AC40T represents a novel species of the genus Alkalimonas, for which the name Alkalimonas collagenimarina sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is AC40T (=JCM 14267T=NCIMB 14266T).
