Two strains of Gram-negative bacteria isolated from soil by selective enrichment with nitroaromatics were subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, the two strains were found to belong to the genus Pseudomonas, within the Gammaproteobacteria. Strain 1B4T shared the highest sequence similarity with Pseudomonas koreensis DSM 16610T (99.5 %) and Pseudomonas jessenii CCM 4840T (99.3 %), and strain 2B2T with Pseudomonas asplenii DSM 17133T (98.9 %), Pseudomonas fuscovaginae DSM 7231T (98.9 %) and Pseudomonas putida DSM 291T (98.7 %). On the basis of phylogenetic analysis, DNA–DNA hybridization and phenotype, including chemotaxonomic characteristics, two novel species, Pseudomonas moraviensis sp. nov. with the type strain 1B4T (=CCM 7280T=DSM 16007T) and Pseudomonas vranovensis sp. nov. with the type strain 2B2T (=CCM 7279T=DSM 16006T), are proposed. The description of P. asplenii was emended on the basis of additional data obtained in this study.

Two bacterial strains, 5420S-12T and 5420S-16T, isolated from air samples, were characterized using a polyphasic approach. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain 5420S-12T was related phylogenetically to Microvirga subterranea FaiI4T (97.4 % sequence similarity) and Microvirga guangxiensis 25BT (97.1 %) and that strain 5420S-16T was closely related to Balneimonas flocculans TFBT (98.0 %) and Microvirga guangxiensis 25BT (97.2 %). The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 62.2 mol% for strain 5420S-12T and 61.5 mol% for strain 5420S-16T. The major fatty acid was C18 : 1 ω7c. The results of DNA–DNA hybridization and the phenotypic data showed that strains 5420S-12T and 5420S-16T could be distinguished from phylogenetically related species and represent two novel species within the genus Microvirga, for which the names Microvirga aerophila sp. nov. (type strain 5420S-12T =KACC 12743T =NBRC 106136T) and Microvirga aerilata sp. nov. (type strain 5420S-16T =KACC 12744T =NBRC 106137T) are proposed. Furthermore, the reclassification of Balneimonas flocculans as Microvirga flocculans comb. nov. (type strain TFBT =JCM 11936T =KCTC 12101T =IAM 15034T =ATCC BAA-817T) is proposed and an emended description of the genus Microvirga is provided.

The taxonomic relationship of Lentzea atacamensis and Lentzea deserti were re-evaluated using comparative genome analysis. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that the type strains of L. atacamensis and L. deserti shared 99.7% sequence similarity. The digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) and average nucleotide identity (ANI) values between the genomes of two type strains were 88.6% and 98.8%, respectively, greater than the two recognized thresholds values of 70% dDDH and 95–96% ANI for bacterial species delineation. These results suggested that L. atacamensis and L. deserti should share the same taxonomic position. And this conclusion was further supported by similar phenotypic and chemotaxonomic features between them. Therefore, we propose that L. deserti is a later heterotypic synonym of L. atacamensis.

A Gram-reaction-negative, aerobic, yellowish-orange-pigmented bacterial strain, designated JC2436T, was isolated from tidal-flat sediment of Oi Island in Korea. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated its close affiliation to Vitellibacter vladivostokensis, with 96 % sequence similarity to the type strain. Cells grew with 2–6 % NaCl and at 10–41 °C. Orange flexirubin pigments were present. The major isoprenoid quinone was MK-6, the DNA G+C content was 48.7 mol% and the predominant fatty acids (>10 %) were iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH. The data obtained from this polyphasic study support the classification of this isolate within a novel species in the genus Vitellibacter, for which the name Vitellibacter aestuarii sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is JC2436T (=IMSNU 14137T =KACC 13727T =KCTC 22361T =JCM 15496T).

Two Gram-negative, motile and strictly aerobic marine bacteria were isolated from a tidal flat sediment sample obtained from Dae-Chun, Chung-Nam, Korea. They were preliminarily identified as Pseudoalteromonas-like bacteria, based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showing nearly identical sequences (>99.7 % sequence similarity) and the highest similarity (98.4 %) to the species Pseudoalteromonas undina. Some phenotypic features of the newly isolated strains were similar to those of members of the genus Pseudoalteromonas, but several physiological and chemo-taxonomical properties readily distinguished the new isolates from previously described species. DNA–DNA hybridization with type strains of phylogenetically closely related species demonstrated that the isolates represent a novel Pseudoalteromonas species, for which the name Pseudoalteromonas marina sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain mano4T (=KCTC 12242T=DSM 17587T). In addition, on the basis of this study and polyphasic data obtained from previous work, it is proposed that the species Pseudoalteromonas sagamiensis should be reclassified as Algicola sagamiensis comb. nov. and that strain B-10-31T (=DSM 14643T=JCM 11461T) be designated the type strain.

Three pink-pigmented, aerobic, Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped and facultatively methylotrophic strains were isolated from the phyllosphere of Trifolium repens and Cerastium holosteoides. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis support the affiliation of all strains to the genus Methylobacterium . The closest relatives of strains C34T and T5 were Methylobacterium gnaphalii 23eT (98.0 and 98.5 % sequence similarity, respectively) and Methylobacterium organophilum JCM 2833T (97.0 and 97.2 %, respectively). Strain TA73T showed the highest sequence similarities to Methylobacterium marchantiae JT1T and Methylobacterium bullatum F3.2T (both 97.9 %), followed by Methylobacterium phyllosphaerae CBMB27T and Methylobacterium brachiatum DSM 19569T (both 97.8 %), Methylobacterium cerastii C15T and Methylobacterium radiotolerans JCM 2831T (both 97.7 %). The major components in the fatty acid profiles were C18 : 1ω7c, C16 : 0 and one unknown fatty acid for strain TA73T and C18 : 1ω7c, C16 : 1ω7c/iso-C15 : 0 2-OH, C18 : 0 and C16 : 0 for strains C34T and T5. Physiological and biochemical analysis, including DNA–DNA hybridization, revealed clear differences between the investigated strains and their closest phylogenetic neighbours. DNA–DNA hybridization studies also showed high similarities between strains C34T and T5 (59.6–100 %). Therefore, the isolates represent two novel species within the genus Methylobacterium , for which the names Methylobacterium trifolii sp. nov. (type strain TA73T = LMG 25778T = CCM 7786T) and Methylobacterium thuringiense sp. nov. (type strain C34T = LMG 25777T = CCM 7787T) are proposed.

Two novel actinobacteria isolates, designated YIM 70009T and YIM 70081T, were characterized in order to determine their taxonomic position. Cells of strains YIM 70009T and YIM 70081T were cocci, although only the latter were motile. The G+C contents of their DNAs were 64·0 and 64·5 mol%, respectively. On the basis of chemotaxonomic characteristics and 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, the two isolates were classified in the genus Nesterenkonia. DNA–DNA hybridization and comparison of phenotypic characteristics revealed that strains YIM 70009T and YIM 70081T differed from each other and from known species. Therefore, it is proposed that they represent two separate novel species of the genus Nesterenkonia: Nesterenkonia sandarakina sp. nov. (type strain, YIM 70009T=CCTCC AA 203007T=DSM 15664T=KCTC 19011T) and Nesterenkonia lutea sp. nov. (type strain, YIM 70081T=CCTCC AA 203010T=DSM 15666T=KCTC 19013T).

Two yellow-pigmented, Gram-reaction-negative strains, designated 01SU5-PT and 03SU3-PT, were isolated from the freshwater of Woopo wetland, Republic of Korea. Both strains were aerobic, non-motile and catalase-negative. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the two isolates belong to the genus Sphingopyxis , showing the highest level of sequence similarity with respect to Sphingopyxis witflariensis W-50T (95.4–95.7 %). The two novel isolates shared 99.4 % sequence similarity. DNA–DNA hybridization between the isolates and the type strain of S. witflariensis clearly suggested that strains 01SU5-PT and 03SU3-PT represent two separate novel species in the genus Sphingopyxis . The two strains displayed different fingerprints after PCR analysis using the repetitive primers BOX, ERIC and REP. Several phenotypic characteristics served to differentiate these two isolates from recognized members of the genus Sphingopyxis . The data from the polyphasic study presented here indicated that strains 01SU5-PT and 03SU3-PT should be classified as representing novel species in the genus Sphingopyxis , for which the names Sphingopyxis rigui sp. nov. and Sphingopyxis wooponensis sp. nov., respectively, are proposed. The type strain of Sphingopyxis rigui sp. nov. is 01SU5-PT ( = KCTC 23326T = JCM 17509T) and the type strain of Sphingopyxis wooponensis sp. nov. is 03SU3-PT ( = KCTC 23340T = JCM 17547T).

Eight actinomycete strains that form bud-like spore chains were isolated from various samples collected in Japan. Phylogenetically, the isolates formed a single clade with the type strain of Actinomycetospora chiangmaiensis according to 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. The isolates contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, d-glutamic acid and d- and l- alanine in the cell-wall peptidoglycan, arabinose and galactose as characteristic sugars, phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine as diagnostic phospholipids, MK-8(H4) as the predominant isoprenoid quinone, iso-C16 : 0 as the major cellular fatty acid and DNA G+C contents of 72–74 mol%. Actinomycetospora chiangmaiensis, the type species of the genus Actinomycetospora, was also found to contain MK-8(H4) predominantly in our study, although it was earlier reported to contain MK-9(H4) as the predominant isoprenoid quinone. On the basis of the morphological, physiological, chemotaxonomic, phylogenetic and DNA–DNA hybridization data, we concluded that the isolates can be accommodated in the genus Actinomycetospora with emendation of the description of the genus and are assigned to the following seven novel species: Actinomycetospora chibensis sp. nov. (type strain TT04-21T  = NBRC 103694T  = KACC 14256T), Actinomycetospora chlora sp. nov. (type strain TT07I-57T  = NBRC 105900T  = KACC 14252T), Actinomycetospora cinnamomea sp. nov. (type strain IY07-53T  = NBRC 105527T  = KACC 14250T), Actinomycetospora corticicola sp. nov. (type strain 014-5T  = NBRC 103689T  = KACC 14253T), Actinomycetospora lutea sp. nov. (type strain TT00-04T  = NBRC 103690T  = KACC 14254T), Actinomycetospora straminea sp. nov. (type strain IY07-55T  = NBRC 105528T  = KACC 14251T) and Actinomycetospora succinea sp. nov. (type strain TT00-49T  = NBRC 103691T  = KACC 14255T).

Bacterial strain CP183-8T was isolated from biological soil crusts collected in the Colorado Plateau, USA. Cells of this strain were aerobic, non-motile, Gram-negative, psychrotolerant and formed beaded chains in the stationary growth phase. They contained C16 : 1 ω5c and C16 : 1 ω7c as major fatty acids. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis assigned the strain to the genus Dyadobacter. However, it shared a sequence similarity of only 95·88 % with the type strain of Dyadobacter fermentans, NS114T. Because it also exhibited a significant number of phenotypic and chemotaxonomic differences from D. fermentans, it is described as a novel second species in the genus Dyadobacter, with the name Dyadobacter crusticola sp. nov. The type strain is CP183-8T (=DSM 16708T=ATCC BAA-1036T).

Seven strains of the genus Sphaerotilus were obtained from natural thermal sulfide (strains D-501T, D-502, D-504, D-505 and D-507) and low-temperature ferrous (strain HST) springs and from an activated sludge system (strain D-380). These Sphaerotilus isolates and strains of Sphaerotilus natans obtained from the DSMZ (S. natans DSM 6575T, DSM 565 and DSM 566) were studied using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. All strains had Q-8 as the major quinone and C16 : 1ω7, C16 : 0 and C18 : 1ω7 as the major fatty acids. The DNA–DNA hybridization results and 16S rRNA, hsp60 and gyrB gene sequencing experiments showed that isolates D-501T, D-502, D-504, D-505, D-507 and D-380 were closely related to the type strain of S. natans DSM 6575T. However, strains D-501T, D-502, D-504, D-505 and D-507 significantly differed from the heterotrophic strain S. natans DSM 6575T by their capability for lithotrophic growth with reduced sulfur compounds as an electron donor for energy conservation and some other phenotypic features. For this reason, strains D-501T, D-502, D-504, D-505 and D-507 merit a separate taxonomic classification at the subspecies level. The name Sphaerotilus natans subsp. sulfidivorans subsp. nov. (type strain D-501T = DSM 22545T = VKM B-2573T) is proposed. The subspecies Sphaerotilus natans subsp. natans subsp. nov. is automatically created as a result of this proposal. Strain D-380 was phenotypically closely related to S. natans DSM 6575T. Strains D-380 and S. natans DSM 6575T were assigned to the subspecies Sphaerotilus natans subsp. natans subsp. nov. (type strain DSM 6575T = ATCC 13338T). The 16S rRNA, hsp60 and gyrB gene sequences obtained for strains HST and DSM 565 showed very low sequence similarity values of 97.3 %, 89.7 % and 88.4 %, respectively, with S. natans DSM 6575T. Strain HST shared 99 % DNA–DNA relatedness with strain
