A Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, phototrophic bacterium, strain JA793T, was isolated from rhizosphere soil of paddy. The strain was capable of growing phototrophically and chemotrophically. Bacteriochlorophyll-a and carotenoids of the spirilloxanthin series were present as photosynthetic pigments. The major fatty acid of strain JA793T was C18 : 1ω7c/C18 : 1ω6c (>65.7 %), with minor amounts of C16 : 0, C16 : 1ω7c/C16 : 1ω6c, C20 : 2ω6,9c, C16 : 0 3-OH, C14 : 0 and C18 : 0 also present. Ubiquinone-10 and rhodoquinone-10 were present as primary quinones. Phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine were the major polar lipids, while minor amounts of amino lipids and unidentified lipids were also present. The G+C content of genomic DNA of strain JA793T was 68.7 mol%. 16S rRNA gene-based EzTaxon-e blast search analysis of strain JA793T indicated highest sequence similarity with members of the genus Rhodoplanes in the family Hyphomicrobiaceae of the class Alphaproteobacteria . Strain JA793T had high sequence similarity with Rhodoplanes elegans AS130T (98.6 %), Rhodoplanes roseus 941T (98 %), Rhodoplanes pokkaliisoli JA415T (97.5 %) and Rhodoplanes piscinae JA266T (97.3 %) and other members of the genus Rhodoplanes (<97 %).

A reddish-brown bacterium, designated strain JA318T, was purified from a photoheterotrophic enrichment culture obtained from the rhizosphere soil of paddy. Cells of strain JA318T are spiral shaped, Gram-stain-negative and motile by means of amphitrichous flagella. Strain JA318T has no NaCl requirement for growth but can tolerate up to 1.5 % (w/v) NaCl. Internal photosynthetic membranes are present as lamellar stacks. Photoorganoheterotrophy is the only growth mode observed. Strain JA318T contains bacteriochlorophyll a, lycopene and rhodopin as major carotenoids. Thiamine, niacin and para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) are required as growth factors. Major fatty acids are C18 : 1ω7c and C16 : 0. Ubiquinone-8 and rhodoquinone-8 are the observed quinones. Diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and an unidentified aminolipid are the major polar lipids in strain JA318T. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the strain JA318T clustered with species of the genus Rhodospirillum which belongs to the class Alphaproteobacteria . The highest sequence similarity of strain JA318T was found with Rhodospirillum sulfurexigens JA143T (99.9 %). The DNA–DNA reassociation values of strain JA318T with Rsp. sulfurexigens JA143T and Rhodospirillum photometricum DSM 122T were 52±2 % and 45±1 %, respectively. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain JA318T was 60.2 mol%. Based on the morphological, physiological, chemotaxonomical and molecular evidence, strain JA318T is significantly different from the type strains of species of the genus Rhodospirillum , of the family Rhodospirillaceae , and it is proposed that the strain be classified as a representative of a novel species for which the name Rhodospirillum oryzae sp. nov. is proposed.

Two marine bacterial strains, designated S2-4-21T and MT2-5-19, were isolated from two tidal flat sediments of cordgrass Spartina alterniflora and adjacent oyster culture field in Quanzhou bay, China, respectively. Both strains were Gram-staining-negative, rod-shaped, non-flagellated, non-motile, aerobic, had NaCl requirements, and contained carotenoid and flexirubin pigments. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (99.8%), average nucleotide identity value (99.4%) and average amino acid identity (99.3%) between strain S2-4-21T and strain MT2-5-19 strongly supported that they belonged to a single species. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain S2-4-21T and strain MT2-5-19 formed a monophyletic branch affiliated to the family Flavobacteriaceae , sharing similarities of 94.6% with Euzebyella marina CY01T and E. saccharophila 7SM30T, and of 94.1 and 92.8% with E. algicola MEBiC 12267T and Pseudozobellia thermophile DSM 19858T, respectively. Phylogenomic analysis based on the whole genome sequences supported that the two strains formed a distinct monophyletic clade within Flavobacteriaceae members, which was phylogenetically different from the clades of Euzebyella and Pseudozobellia . The major respiratory quinone was menaquinone MK-6. The major fatty acids (>10%) consisted of C15 : 0 iso, C16 : 0, summed feature 9 (C17 : 1 iso ω9c/C16 : 0 10-methyl) and C17 : 0 iso 3-OH. The polar lipid profiles of strain S2-4-21T and strain MT2-5-19 are identical, including phosphatidylethanolamine, four unidentified aminolipids, and four unidentified lipids. The genomic size was 4.9–5.0 Mb with genomic DNA G+C content of 41.5 mol%. Based on the above characteristics, strains S2-4-21T and MT2-5-19 represented a novel species of a novel genus in the family Flavobacteriaceae . Thus, Pareuzebyella sediminis gen. nov. sp. nov. is proposed with type strain S2-4-21T (=MCCC 1K03818T=KCTC 72152T), and another strain MT2-5-19 (=KCTC 72539=MCCC 1K03874).
