A Gram-stain-positive, non-motile rod, designated strain SGM3-12T, was isolated from paddy soil in Suwon, Republic of Korea. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that the strain represented a novel member of the family Microbacteriaceae . The nearest phylogenetic neighbour was Leifsonia kribbensis MSL-13T (97.4 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity). Strain SGM3-12T and Leifsonia kribbensis MSL-13T formed a distinct cluster within the family Microbacteriaceae . Strain SGM3-12T contained MK-12(H2) and MK-11(H2) as the predominant menaquinones with moderate amounts of MK-12 and MK-11; anteiso-C15 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0 as the major cellular fatty acids (>10 % of total); and diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and unidentified glycolipids as the polar lipids. The peptidoglycan type of the isolate was B1δ with l-Lys as the diagnostic cell-wall diamino acid. On the basis of these results, strain SGM3-12T represents a novel species within a new genus, for which the name Lysinimonas soli gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed (the type strain of the type species is SGM3-12T = KACC 13362T = NBRC 107106T). It is also proposed that Leifsonia kribbensis be transferred to this genus as Lysinimonas kribbensis comb. nov. (the type strain is MSL-13T = DSM 19272T = JCM 16015T = KACC 21108T = KCTC 19267T).

Nostoc is a common and well-studied genus of cyanobacteria and, according to molecular phylogeny, is a polyphyletic group. Therefore, revisions of this genus are urged in an attempt to clarify its taxonomy. Novel strains isolated from underexplored environments and assigned morphologically to the genus Nostoc are not genetically related to the ‘true Nostoc’ group. In this study, four strains isolated from biofilms collected in Antarctica and five strains originated from Brazilian mangroves were evaluated. Despite their morphological similarities to other morphotypes of Nostoc , these nine strains differed from other morphotypes in ecological, physiological and genetic aspects. Based on the phylogeny of the 16S rRNA gene, the Antarctic sequences were grouped together with the sequences of the Brazilian mangrove isolates and Nostoc sp. Mollenhauer 1 : 1-067 in a well-supported cluster (74 % bootstrap value, maximum-likelihood). This novel cluster was separated phylogenetically from the ‘true Nostoc’ clade and from the clades of the morphologically similar genera Mojavia and Desmonostoc. The 16S rRNA gene sequences generated in this study exhibited 96 % similarity to sequences from the nostocacean genera mentioned above. Physiologically, these nine strains showed the capacity to grow in a salinity range of 1–10 % NaCl, indicating their tolerance of saline conditions. These results provide support for the description of a new genus, named Halotia gen. nov., which is related morphologically to the genera Nostoc , Mojavia and Desmonostoc. Within this new genus, three novel species were recognized and described based on morphology and internal transcribed spacer secondary structures: Halotia branconii sp. nov., Halotia longispora sp. nov. and Halotia wernerae sp. nov., under the provisions of the International Code of Nomenclature for Algae, Fungi and Plants.

Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences of strains TE26T and K6 belonging to Wautersia numazuensis Kageyama et al. 2005 showed the strains to be deeply intermingled among the species of the genus Cupriavidus . The comparison showed that strain TE26T was closely related to the type strains of Cupriavidus pinatubonensis (99.1 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), C. basilensis (98.7 %), C. necator (98.7 %) and C. gilardii (98.0 %). However, DNA–DNA hybridization experiments (less than 20 % relatedness) demonstrated that strain TE26T is different from these Cupriavidus species. A comparative phenotypic and chemotaxonomic analysis (based on fatty acid profiles) in combination with the 16S rRNA gene sequence phylogenetic analysis and the DNA–DNA hybridization results supported the incorporation of Wautersia numazuensis into the genus Cupriavidus as Cupriavidus numazuensis comb. nov.; the type strain is TE26T ( = LMG 26411T  = DSM 15562T  = CIP 108892T).

Good growth was observed at 50–55 °C and pH 7.0 with 3 % NaCl. It formed ivory–white colonies with radial wrinkles. Aerial mycelium was absent on the media tested. Phenotypic characteristics and 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain SCSIO 11153T belonged to the family Thermoactinomycetaceae . It exhibited 96.4 % and 96.2 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities to Melghirimyces algeriensis NariEXT and Melghirimyces thermohalophilus Nari11AT, respectively, while lower sequence similarity values (<95.4 %) were observed between strain SCSIO 11153T and other species of genera in the family Thermoactinomycetaceae . The menaquinone type was MK-7. Major cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0 and iso-C17 : 0. The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylmethylethanolamine, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol. The DNA G+C content of strain SCSIO 11153T was 52.6 mol%. On the basis of the genotypic and phenotypic characteristics, it is proposed that strain SCSIO 11153T represents a novel species of the genus Melghirimyces with the name Melghirimyces profundicolus sp. nov. The type strain is SCSIO 11153T ( = DSM 45787T = CCTCC AA 2012007T = NBRC 109068T).

A novel filamentous bacterium, designated strain JIR-001T, was isolated from hemipelagic sediment in deep seawater. This strain was non-motile, Gram-positive, aerobic, heterotrophic and thermophilic; colonies were of infinite form and ivory coloured with wrinkles between the centre and the edge of the colony on ISP2 medium. The isolate grew aerobically at 55–73 °C with the formation of aerial mycelia; spores were produced singly along the aerial mycelium. These morphological features show some similarities to those of the type strains of some species belonging to the family Thermoactinomycetaceae . Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences confirmed that strain JIR-001T belongs to the family Thermoactinomycetaceae within the class Bacilli . Similarity levels between the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain JIR-001T and those of the type strains of Thermoactinomycetaceae species were 85.5–93.5 %; highest sequence similarity was with Melghirimyces algeriensis NariEXT. In the DNA–DNA hybridization assays between strain JIR-001T and its phylogenetic neighbours the mean hybridization levels with Melghirimyces algeriensis NariEXT, Planifilum fimeticola H0165T, Planifilum fulgidum 500275T and Planifilum yunnanense LA5T were 5.3–7.5, 2.3–4.7, 2.1–4.8 and 2.5–4.9 %, respectively. The DNA G+C content of strain JIR-001T was 55.1 mol%. The major fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C17 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 and C16 : 0. The polar lipid profile consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, glucolipid, phosphatidylserine, an amino-group containing phospholipid, an unknown phospholipid and two unknown lipids. The predominant menaquinone was MK-7 and the cell-wall peptidoglycan contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, glutamic acid and alanine. On the basis of phenotypic characteristics and 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons, strain JIR-001T is considered to represent a novel species in a new genus of the family Thermoactinomycetaceae , for which the name Polycladomyces abyssicola gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Polycladomyces abyssicola is JIR-001T ( = JCM 18147T = CECT 8074T).

The 16S Rrna Gene

A Gram-stain-negative, ovoid or rod-shaped, non-flagellated, motile-by-gliding and aerobic bacteria, designated S10-8T, was isolated from marine sediment of the Yellow Sea. Colonies of strain S10-8T had a pink-red pigmentation and its cells were approximately 0.5–0.8 μm×1.0–2.5 μm in size. Growth occurred at 10–45 °C (optimally at 33–37 °C), in the presence of 0–12.0 % NaCl (optimally at 2.0–5.0 %, w/v) and at pH 5.0–8.5 (optimally at pH 7.0–7.5). Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene indicated that strain S10-8T is a member of the genus Pontibacter within the family Hymenobacteraceae , and the 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of strain S10-8T to its closest relative Pontibacter actiniarum KCTC 12367T was 96.9 %. Strain S10-8T contained MK-7 as the predominant menaquinone and summed feature 4 (iso-C17:1 I and/or anteiso-C17:1 B) and iso-C15:0 as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminophospholipid and an unidentified lipid. The size of the draft genome was 4 623 791 bp and the G+C content was 53.5 mol%. There were low DNA-DNA hybridization values (<48.3±5.2 %) and average nucleotide identity values (<86.5 %) between strain S10-8T and the most closely related recognized Pontibacter species. Therefore, we propose a novel species in the genus Pontibacter to accommodate the novel isolate: Pontibacter flavimaris sp. nov. (type strain S10-8T=KCTC 42769T=ACCC 19859T).

The 16S Rrna Gene

A phytoplasma was identified in naturally infected wild Balanites triflora plants exhibiting typical witches’ broom symptoms (Balanites witches’ broom: BltWB) in Myanmar. The 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that BltWB phytoplasma had the highest similarity to that of ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma ziziphi’ and it was also closely related to that of ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma ulmi ’. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the BltWB phytoplasma clustered as a discrete subclade with Elm yellows phytoplasmas. RFLP analysis of the 16S rRNA gene including the 16S–23S spacer region differentiated the BltWB phytoplasma from ‘Ca. P. ziziphi ’, ‘Ca. P. ulmi ’ and ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma trifolii ’. Analysis of additional ribosomal protein (rp) and translocase protein (secY) gene sequences and phylogenetic analysis of BltWB showed that this phytoplasma was clearly distinguished from those of other ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma ’ taxa. Taking into consideration the unique plant host and the restricted geographical occurrence in addition to the 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, the BltWB phytoplasma is proposed to represent a novel taxon, ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma balanitae’.
