Moderately Halophilic Bacterium

A novel Gram-stain-positive, moderately halophilic bacterium, designated strain G8BT, was isolated from water of the hypersaline lake Aran-Bidgol in Iran and characterized taxonomically using a polyphasic approach. Cells of strain G8BT were rod-shaped, motile and produced oval endospores at a terminal position in swollen sporangia. Strain G8BT was strictly aerobic, catalase-positive and oxidase-negative. The strain was able to grow at NaCl concentrations of 0.5–12.5 % (w/v), with optimum growth occurring at 5–7.5 % (w/v) NaCl. The optimum temperature and pH for growth were 35–40 °C and pH 7.5–8.0, respectively. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain G8BT was shown to belong to the genus Ornithinibacillus within the phylum Firmicutes and showed closest phylogenetic similarity with Ornithinibacillus bavariensis WSBC 24001T (97.6 %). The DNA G+C content of strain G8BT was 36.9 mol%. The major cellular fatty acids of strain G8BT were anteiso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0, iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0, and its polar lipid pattern consisted of phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, four unknown phospholipids and an unknown aminolipid. The isoprenoid quinones were MK-7 (98 %) and MK-8 (2 %). Strain G8BT contained a peptidoglycan of type A4β, l-Orn–d-Asp. All these features confirmed the placement of isolate G8BT within the genus Ornithinibacillus . DNA–DNA hybridization experiments revealed a low level of relatedness (6 %) between strain G8BT and Ornithinibacillus bavariensis DSM 15681T. On the basis of evidence from this study, a novel species of the genus Ornithinibacillus , Ornithinibacillus halophilus sp. nov., is proposed, with strain G8BT ( = IBRC-M 10683T = KCTC 13822T) as the type strain.

A moderately halophilic, Gram-stain-negative, aerobic bacterium, strain D1-1T, belonging to the genus Halomonas , was isolated from soil sampled at Pentha beach, Odisha, India. Phylogenetic trees reconstructed based on 16S rRNA genes and multilocus sequence analysis of gyrB and rpoD genes revealed that strain D1-1T belonged to the genus Halomonas and was most closely related to Halomonas alimentaria YKJ-16T (98.1 %) followed by Halomonas ventosae Al12T (97.5 %), Halomonas sediminicola CPS11T (97.5 %), Halomonas fontilapidosi 5CRT (97.4 %) and Halomonas halodenitrificans DSM 735T (97.2 %) on the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity. Sequence identities with other species within the genus were lower than 97.0 %. The digital DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH) and average nucleotide identity (ANI) values of 22.4–30 % and 79.5–85.4 % with close relatives of H. halodenitrificans DSM 735T, H . alimentaria YKJ-16T, H. ventosae Al12T and H. fontilapidosi 5CRT were lower than the threshold recommended for species delineation (70 % and 95–96 % for dDDH and ANI, respectively). Further, strain D1-1T formed yellow-coloured colonies; cells were rod-shaped, motile with optimum growth at 30 °C (range, 4–45 °C) and 2–8 % NaCl (w/v; grew up to 24 % NaCl). The major fatty acids were summed feature 8 (C18 : 1  ω7c/C18 : 1  ω6c), summed feature 3 (C16 : 1  ω7c/C16 : 1  ω6c) and C16 : 0 and the main respiratory quinone was ubiquinone Q-9 in line with description of the genus. Based on its chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic characteristics and genome uniqueness, strain D1-1T represents a novel species in the genus Halomonas , for which we propose the name Halomonas icarae sp. nov., within the family Halomonadaceae . The type strain is D1-1T (=JCM 33602T=KACC 21317T=NAIMCC-B-2254T).

Two Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, moderately halophilic, rod-shaped bacteria (strains Ar-45T and DY470T) were isolated from seawater collected from the Southern Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, respectively. Growth of strain Ar-45T was observed with between 0.5 and 10.0 % (w/v) NaCl (optimally with 0.5–3.0 %) and between pH 5.5 and 9.5. Strain DY470T grew in the presence of 0.5–7.5 % (w/v) NaCl (optimally with 2.0 %) and at pH 5.5–8.5. Chemotaxonomic analysis showed Q-10 as the respiratory quinone for both strains. The major fatty acids (>5 %) of strain Ar-45T were C16 : 0, C19 : 0 cyclo ω8c and C18 : 1ω7c, while those of strain DY470T were C18 : 1ω7c, C16 : 0 and 11-methyl C18 : 1ω7c. The DNA G+C contents of the two strains were 62.0 and 61.8 mol%, respectively. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strains Ar-45T and DY470T were related most closely to the genus Oceanicola , with sequence similarities of 97.4–94.0 and 97.7–94.7 %, respectively. The DNA–DNA hybridization value between strain Ar-45T and Oceanicola marinus LMG 23705T was 22.0 %. Levels of DNA–DNA relatedness between strain DY470T and Oceanicola nitratireducens LMG 24663T and Oceanicola batsensis DSM 15984T were 32.5 and 26.1 %, respectively. Based on phylogenetic, chemotaxonomic and phenotypic data, strains Ar-45T and DY470T are considered to represent two novel species of the genus Oceanicola , for which the names Oceanicola antarcticus (type strain Ar-45T = CGMCC 1.12662T = LMG 27868T) and Oceanicola flagellatus (type strain DY470T = CGMCC 1.12664T = LMG 27871T) are proposed.

Two novel bacterial strains, SLG210-30A1T and SLG210-19A2, which shared 99.9 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with each other, were isolated from petroleum-contaminated saline soil in Shengli Oilfield, eastern China. Cells were Gram-stain-negative, motile, aerobic, mesophilic and moderately halophilic. They could grow chemoheterotrophically with oxygen as an electron acceptor. Morphologically, cells were typical Caulobacteria-type dimorphic prosthecate bacteria. The genomic DNA G+C contents of strains SLG210-30A1T and SLG210-19A2 were 61.8 mol% and 61.6 mol% respectively. Strain SLG210-30A1T had Q10 as the predominant respiratory ubiquinone, and C16 : 0 (28.4 %), C17 : 0 (11.6 %), C18 : 0 (22.1 %) and C18 : 1ω7c (14.0 %) as the major cellular fatty acids. The polar lipids of the two isolates were some glycolipids, a lipid, a phospholipid, an aminoglycolipid and an aminophospholipid (all unidentified). The 16S rRNA gene sequences of strains SLG210-30A1T and SLG210-19A2 showed the highest similarities with Glycocaulis abyssi MCS 33T (99.8–99.9 %), but low sequence similarities (<94.7 %) with type strains of other members of the family Hyphomonadaceae . However, the DNA–DNA relatedness of G. abyssi MCS 33T to strains SLG210-30A1T and SLG210-19A2 was 37.4±4.4 % and 36.1±1.1 %, respectively. Based on different physiological, biochemical, and phylogenetic characteristics, strains SLG210-30A1T and SLG210-19A2 represent a novel species of the genus Glycocaulis . The name Glycocaulis albus is therefore proposed with strain SLG210-30A1T ( = LMG 27741T = CGMCC 1.12766T) as the type strain. An emended description of the genus Glycocaulis is also provided.
