A bacterial strain, OHA11T, was isolated during the course of a study of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria occurring in a forest soil from Salamanca, Spain. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain OHA11T shared 99.1 % similarity with respect to Pseudomonas baetica a390T, and 98.9 % similarity with the type strains of Pseudomonas jessenii , Pseudomonas moorei , Pseudomonas umsongensis , Pseudomonas mohnii and Pseudomonas koreensis . The analysis of housekeeping genes rpoB, rpoD and gyrB confirmed its phylogenetic affiliation to the genus Pseudomonas and showed similarities lower than 95 % in almost all cases with respect to the above species. Cells possessed two polar flagella. The respiratory quinone was Q9. The major fatty acids were C16 : 0, C18 : 1ω7c and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c/iso-C15 : 0 2-OH). The strain was oxidase-, catalase- and urease-positive, positive for arginine dihydrolase but negative for nitrate reduction, β-galactosidase production and aesculin hydrolysis. It was able to grow at 31 °C and at pH 11. The DNA G+C content was 58.1 mol%. DNA–DNA hybridization results showed values lower than 49 % relatedness with respect to the type strains of the seven closest related species. Therefore, the combined genotypic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic data support the classification of strain OHA11T to a novel species of the genus Pseudomonas , for which the name Pseudomonas helmanticensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is OHA11T ( = LMG 28168T = CECT 8548T).

A motile, Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped bacterium, designated G-4-1-14T, was obtained from forest soil sampled at Gwanggyo mountain, Gyeonggi-do, Republic of Korea. Cells were colourless, aerobic, grew optimally at 28–35 °C and hydrolysed DNA and casein. Phylogenetic analysis based on its 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain G-4-1-14T formed a lineage within the genus Zoogloea . The closest members were Zoogloea resiniphila ATCC 70068T (98.6 % sequence similarity), Zoogloea caeni EMB43T (98.2 %), Zoogloea oryzae A-7T (97.7 %), Zoogloea ramigera IAM 12136T (96.9 %) and Zoogloea oleivorans BucT (96.2 %). The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone-8 and the principal polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidyl-N-methylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylglycerol. The predominant cellular fatty acids were summed feature 3 (iso-C15 :0 2-OH/C16  : 1 ω7c) and C16 : 0. The DNA G+C content was 65.9 mol%. The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization relatedness values between strain G-4-1-14T and other type strains were ≤81.6 and ≤24.9 %, respectively, which are below the species demarcation thresholds. Based on the results of phenotypic, phylogenetic and genomic analyses, strain G-4-1-14T represents a novel species in the genus Zoogloea , for which the name Zoogloea dura sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is G-4-1-14T (=KACC 21618T=NBRC 114358T). In addition, we propose emendation of the genus Zoogloea and the species Zoogloea oryzae and Zoogloea ramigera .

A novel bacterial strain, designated ysch24T, was isolated from a forest soil sample collected from the Cat Tien National Park, southern Vietnam. Cells were Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, gliding, filamentous or rod-shaped. The results of 16S rRNA gene analyses revealed that strain ysch24T belongs to the genus Chitinophaga , and was most closely related to Chitinophaga silvisoli GDMCC 1.1411T (97.4 %), followed by Chitinophaga oryziterrae JCM 16595T (97.3 %) and Chitinophaga sancti NBRC 15057T (96.9 %). The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values between strain ysch24T and closely related type strains were 72.0–74.0 % and 19.1–19.4 %, respectively. Major fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, C16 : 1  ω5c and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH and the predominant respiratory quinone was menaquinone 7. Polar lipids consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine, four unidentified aminophospholipids, two unidentified phospholipids and four unidentified lipids. The genomic DNA G+C content was 45.6 mol%. The study clearly showed that strain ysch24T should represent a novel species of the genus Chitinophaga , for which the name Chitinophaga tropicalis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is ysch24T (=GDMCC 1.1355T=KACC 21527T).

Two Gram-stain-negative, yellow-pigmented and strictly aerobic bacteria, designated strains SE-s27T and SE-s28T, were isolated from forest soil. Both strains were non-motile rods that were catalase-positive and oxidase-negative and grew optimally at 25–30 °C, pH 8.0 and with 0 % (w/v) NaCl. Strain SE-s28T produced flexirubin-type pigments, but strain SE-s27T did not produce them. Both strains contained menaquinone-6 as the sole respiratory quinone and phosphatidylethanolamine as a major polar lipid. As the major cellular fatty acids (>10 %), SE-s27T contained iso-C15 : 1 and iso-C15 : 1G, whereas SE-s28T contained iso-C15 : 0 and summed feature 3 comprising C16 : 1ω7c and/or C16 : 1ω6c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH. The DNA G+C contents of strains SE-s27T and SE-s28T were 33.1 and 44.3 mol%, respectively. The results of phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that SE-s27T and SE-s28T formed respective distinct phylogenetic lineages within the genus Flavobacterium . Strains SE-s27T and SE-s28T were most closely related to Flavobacterium macrobrachii an-8T and Flavobacterium piscinae ICH-30T with 98.0 and 94.5 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities, respectively. In conclusion, strains SE-s27T and SE-s28T represent novel species of the genus Flavobacterium , for which the names Flavobacterium solisilvae sp. nov. and Flavobacterium silvaticum sp. nov. are proposed. The type strains of F. solisilvae and F. silvaticum are SE-s27T (=KACC 18802T=JCM 31544T) and SE-s28T (=KACC 18803T=JCM 31545T), respectively.

A Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped and aerobic bacterial strain, named Ery12T, was isolated from the overlying water of the Lau Basin in the Southwest Pacific Ocean. Strain Ery12T showed high 16S rRNA gene sequences similarity to Tsuneonella flava MS1-4T (99.9 %), T. mangrovi MCCC 1K03311T (98.1 %), Altererythrobacter ishigakiensis NBRC 107699T (97.3 %) and exhibited ≤97.0 % sequence similarity with other type strains of species with validly published names. Growth was observed in media with 0–10.0 % NaCl (optimum 0–1.0 %, w/v), pH 5.0–9.5 (optimum 6.0–7.0) and 10–42 °C (optimum 30–37 °C). The predominant respiratory quinone was ubiquinone 10 (Q-10). The major cellular fatty acid was summed feature 8 (C18 : 1  ω7c and/or C18 : 1  ω6c). The major polar lipids were sphingoglycolipid, phosphatidyglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, three unidentified glycolipids, one unidentified aminoglycolipid and one unidentified lipid. The DNA G+C content was 60.8 %. The ANI and in silico DDH values between strain Ery12T and the type strains of its closely related species were 71.0- 91.8 % and 19.5- 44.6 %, respectively. According to the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, phylogenetic and genomic data, strain Ery12T represents a novel species of the genus Tsuneonella , for which the name Tsuneonella suprasediminis is proposed. The type strain is Ery12T (=CGMCC 1.16500 T=MCCC 1A04421T=KCTC 62388T). We further propose to reclassify Altererythrobacter rhizovicinus and Altererythrobacter spongiae as Pelagerythrobacter rhizovicinus comb. nov. and Altericroceibacterium spongiae comb. nov., respectively.

A novel bacterial strain, designated K2CV101002-2T, was isolated from forest soil collected at Dinghushan Biosphere Reserve, Guangdong Province, PR China. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that it belonged to the genus Chitinophaga and was most closely related to Chitinophaga terrae KP01T (99.0 %), followed by Chitinophaga extrema Mgbs1T (98.3 %) and Chitinophaga solisilvae O9T (98.1 %). The draft genome sequence was 6.8 Mb long with a relative low G+C content of 39.8 mol%. The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values between the novel strain and closely related type strains were 71.4‒76.2 % and 18.4‒19.6 %, respectively. Meanwhile the corresponding values between C. extrema Mgbs1T and C. solisilvae O9T were 98.6 and 88.1 %, respectively. The novel strain contained iso-C15:0, C16:1 ω5c and iso-C17:0 3-OH as the major fatty acids and MK-7 as the predominant respiratory quinone. The polyphasic study clearly supported that strain K2CV101002-2T represents a new species of the genus Chitinophaga , for which the name Chtinophaga silvatica sp. nov. (type strain K2CV101002-2T=GDMCC 1.1288T=JCM 32696T) is proposed. In addition, Chitinophaga extrema Goh et al. 2020 should be taken as a later heterotypic synonym of Chitinophaga solisilvae Ping et al. 2020.

A Gram-negative, non-motile, pale-yellow, rod-shaped bacterial strain, PL-41T, was isolated from Populus euphratica forest soil at the ancient Khiyik River valley in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, People's Republic of China. Strain PL-41T grew optimally at 30 °C and pH 7.0–8.0. The major quinone was Q-10. The predominant cellular fatty acids of strain PL-41T were summed feature 8 (comprising C18 : 1ω7c and C18 : 1ω6c), C16 : 0 and C19 : 0 cyclo ω8c. Polar lipids of strain PL-41T include two unidentified aminophospholipids (APL1, 2), two unidentified phospholipids (PL1, 2), phosphatidylcholine and three unidentified lipids (L1–3). Strain PL-41T showed 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 97.0–97.5 % to the type strains of recognized species of the genus Rhizobium . Phylogenetic analysis of strain PL-41T based on the sequences of housekeeping genes recA and atpD confirmed (similarities are less than 90 %) its position as a distinct species of the genus Rhizobium . The DNA G+C content was 57.8 mol%. DNA–DNA relatedness between strain PL-41T and the type strains of Rhizobium huautlense S02T, Rhizobium alkalisoli CCBAU 01393T, Rhizobium vignae CCBAU 05176T and Rhizobium loessense CCBAU 7190BT were 33.4, 22.6, 25.5 and 45.1 %, respectively, indicating that strain PL-41T was distinct from them genetically. Strain PL-41T also can be differentiated from these four phylogenetically related species of the genus Rhizobium by various phenotypic properties. On the basis of phenotypic properties, phylogenetic distinctiveness and genetic data, strain PL-41T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Rhizobium , for which the name Rhizobium tarimense sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is PL-41T ( = CCTCC AB 2011011T = NRRL B-59556T).

A Gram-stain-positive, non-motile, rod- or coccoid-shaped actinobacterium, designated strain A33T, was isolated from a forest soil sample from Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, PR China. The strain grew optimally at 30 °C, pH 7.0 and with 3 % NaCl (w/v). Phylogenetic analysis of the strain, based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, showed that it was most closely related to Arthrobacter woluwensis (98.4 % sequence similarity), Arthrobacter humicola (97.5 %), Arthrobacter globiformis (97.4 %), Arthrobacter oryzae (97.3 %) and Arthrobacter cupressi (97.0 %). The major cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0 and iso-C15 : 0; MK-9(H2) was the predominant respiratory quinone. The polar lipids comprised diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol and three glycolipids. Cell-wall analysis revealed that the peptidoglycan type was A3α, based on l-lysine-l-alanine; the cell-wall sugars were galactose and mannose. The genomic G+C content of strain A33T was 66.8 mol%. The low DNA–DNA relatedness values between strain A33T and recognized species of the genus Arthrobacter and many phenotypic properties supported the classification of strain A33T as a representative of a novel species of the genus Arthrobacter , for which the name Arthrobacter nanjingensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is A33T ( = CCTCC AB 2014069T = DSM 28237T).
