The Antarctic

A Gram-negative, psychrotolerant, chemoheterotrophic, aerobic, non-gliding, non-motile, yellow-pigmented bacterium, designated IMCC3228T, was isolated from coastal seawater of the Antarctic. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons, the strain was most closely related to the genera Sejongia (95.3–96.1 %) and Chryseobacterium (94.2–95.9 %) in the family Flavobacteriaceae. Phylogenetic trees generated using several treeing algorithms based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that this Antarctic marine isolate formed a distinct phyletic line within the genus Sejongia. The DNA G+C content of the strain was 35.0 mol% and the major respiratory quinone was MK-6. Several phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, including temperature and NaCl optima for growth, oxidase activity and the proportions of major cellular fatty acids, served to differentiate the strain from the recognized species of the genus Sejongia. Therefore strain IMCC3228T represents a novel species of the genus Sejongia, for which the name Sejongia marina sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is IMCC3228T (=KCCM 42689T=NBRC 103143T).

A seawater bacterium, designated IMCC3101T, was isolated from Antarctic coastal seawater. The strain was Gram-negative, chemoheterotrophic, obligately aerobic, pigmented dark yellow (flexirubin-type pigments) and devoid of gliding and flagellar motility. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons, the most closely related species was Ulvibacter litoralis (96.6 %). Phylogenetic trees generated by using 16S rRNA gene sequences confirmed that the strain belonged to the genus Ulvibacter in the family Flavobacteriaceae. The DNA G+C content was 37.0 mol% and the major respiratory quinone was MK-6. Several phenotypic characteristics, including cell and colony morphology, the absence of gliding motility and the temperature range for growth, serve to differentiate the strain from the only species in the genus Ulvibacter with a validly published name (U. litoralis). Therefore, strain IMCC3101T represents a novel species of the genus Ulvibacter, for which the name Ulvibacter antarcticus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is IMCC3101T (=KCCM 42686T=NBRC 102682T).

A freshwater bacterium, designated IMCC1728T, was isolated from a eutrophic pond. The strain was Gram-negative, chemoheterotrophic and facultatively aerobic, forming non-motile rods that contained poly-β-hydroxybutyrate granules. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons, the most closely related species to strain IMCC1728T was Methylibium petroleiphilum (97.0 % similarity). Phylogenetic trees generated using 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that this isolate formed an independent phyletic line of the genus Methylibium clade of the class Betaproteobacteria. The DNA G+C content of the strain was 66.2±0.4 mol%. The predominant cellular fatty acid constituents were C16 : 1 ω7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH (43.1 %), C16 : 0 (20.3 %), C12 : 0 (13.4 %) and C10 : 0 3-OH (7.3 %). The strain contained Q-8 as the predominant ubiquinone. Several phenotypic characteristics, including flagellation, temperature range for growth and carbon source utilization patterns, differentiated strain IMCC1728T from species of the genus Methylibium. Therefore, it is proposed that strain IMCC1728T represents a novel species, Methylibium aquaticum sp. nov. The type strain is IMCC1728T (=KCCM 42364T=NBRC 102349T).

Abstract Strain SZY PN-1T, representing a novel Gram-negative, aerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped and yellow-pigmented bacterium, was isolated from a skin sample of a healthy Chinese people. Growth of SZY PN-1T optimally occurred at pH 7.0, at 30 ºC and tolerate up to 1.0 % (w/v) NaCl. According to the absorption spectrum, carotenoid was present in the cells. Comparative analysis of the 16S rRNA gene revealed that strain SZY PN-1T shared high similarities with Sandaracinobacter sibiricus RB16-17T (97.1 %) and Sandaracinobacter neustonicus JCM 30734T (96.6 %), respectively. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences together with protein-concatamer tree showed that SZY PN-1T formed a separate branch within the genus Sandaracinobacter. The DNA G+C content of the strain SZY PN-1T was 65.0 % (genome). The polar lipid profile included phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, two sphingoglycolipids, diphosphatidylglycerol, five unidentified glycolipids and seven unidentified lipids. The predominant fatty acids (> 10.0 %) were identified as C18:1 ω7c and/or C18:1 ω6c, C17:1 ω6c, C16:1 ω7c and/or C16:1 ω6c. The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone Q-10. Based on the phenotypic and genotypic features, we proposed Sandaracinobacter hominis sp. nov. with type strain SZY PN-1T (= KCTC 82150T = NBRC 114675T).

A marine bacterium, DOKDO 007T, was isolated from the rhizosphere of the marine alga Ecklonia kurome collected from Dokdo Island, Korea, in October 2004. The strain produced orange-coloured colonies on marine agar 2216. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that the novel isolate belonged to the family Flavobacteriaceae and showed relatively high sequence similarities with members of the genus Muricauda (92.0–94.0 %). Phylogenetic analysis based on nearly complete 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the novel isolate shared a lineage with members of the genera Muricauda and Costertonia. Cells were aerobic, Gram-negative rods producing non-diffusible carotenoid pigments. In contrast to all other members of the family Flavobacteriaceae, cells of DOKDO 007T were motile by means of a polar flagellum. Optimal growth occurred in the presence of 3.5–4 % (w/v) sea salts (corresponding to 2.7–3.1 % NaCl), at pH 8 and at temperatures of 26–29 °C. The novel strain required Ca2+ ions in addition to NaCl for growth. The dominant fatty acids were iso-15 : 0, iso-15 : 1ω10c and 10-methyl-16 : 0. The major respiratory quinone was MK-6. The DNA G+C content was 56.3 mol%, an unusually high value for members of the family Flavobacteriaceae. On the basis of these polyphasic taxonomic data, strain DOKDO 007T should be classified as representing a new genus and novel species in the family Flavobacteriaceae, for which the name Flagellimonas eckloniae gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DOKDO 007T (=KCCM 42307T=JCM 13831T).

A yellow-pigmented bacterial strain, designated Y2T, was isolated from farmland soil in Bengbu, Anhui province, China. Cells of strain Y2T were Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, non-motile and rod-shaped. Strain Y2T grew optimally at pH 7.0, 30 °C and in the presence of 2 % (w/v) NaCl. The DNA G+C content was 68.9 mol%. The major fatty acids (>5 %) were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C17 : 0, summed feature 9 (C16 : 0 10-methyl and/or iso-C17 : 1ω9c), iso-C11 : 0 3-OH and iso-C11 : 0. The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone-8 (Q-8), and the major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain Y2T was most closely related to Luteimonas mephitis B1953/27.1T (99.1 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), followed by Luteimonas lutimaris G3T (98.6 %), Luteimonas abyssi XH031T (96.2 %) and Luteimonas aquatica RIB1-20T (96.0 %). Strain Y2T exhibited low DNA–DNA relatedness with Luteimonas mephitis B1953/27.1T (43.6 ± 0.5 %) and Luteimonas lutimaris G3T (43.9 ± 2.1 %). On the basis of phenotypic, genotypic and phylogenetic evidence, strain Y2T represents a novel species of the genus Luteimonas, for which the name Luteimonas soli sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Y2T ( = ACCC 19799T = KCTC 42441T).

Three strains of non-motile, Gram-positive, filamentous actinomycetes, isolates J4T, J5 and J59, initially recognized microscopically in activated sludge foam by their distinctive branching patterns, were isolated by micromanipulation. The taxonomic positions of the isolates were determined using a polyphasic approach. Almost-complete 16S rRNA gene sequences of the isolates were aligned with corresponding sequences of representatives of the suborder Corynebacterineae and phylogenetic trees were inferred using three tree-making algorithms. The organisms formed a distinct phyletic line in the Gordonia 16S rRNA gene tree. The three isolates showed 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities within the range 96.9–97.2 % with their nearest phylogenetic neighbours, namely Gordonia bronchialis DSM 43247T and Gordonia terrae DSM 43249T. Strain J4T was shown to have a chemotaxonomic profile typical of the genus Gordonia and was readily distinguished from representatives of the genus on the basis of Curie-point pyrolysis mass spectrometric data. The isolates shared nearly identical phenotypic profiles that distinguished them from representatives of the most closely related Gordonia species. It is evident from the genotypic and phenotypic data that the three isolates belong to a novel Gordonia species. The name proposed for this taxon is Gordonia defluvii sp. nov.; the type strain is J4T (=DSM 44981T=NCIMB 14149T).
