A Gram-stain-positive, facultatively anaerobic and non-motile strain, designated SYSUP0004T, was isolated from the tubers of Gastrodia elata Blume collected from Yunnan Province, PR China. The 16S rRNA gene sequence result showed that the strain SYSUP0004T shared low similarity (97.7 %) with the type strain of Cellulomonas marina . SYSUP0004T grew at pH 6.0–9.0 (optimum, pH 8.0), temperature 4–30 °C (optimum, 28 °C) and could tolerate NaCl up to 4 % w/v (optimum in the absence of NaCl). The cell-wall peptidoglycan type was A4β with an interpeptide bridge l-ornithine–d-glutamic acid. Cell-wall sugars were mannose, ribose, glucose, galactose and fucose. The menaquinone was MK-9(H4). The major fatty acids were anteiso-C15:0, anteiso-C15 : 1 A, C16 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. The polar lipids of SYSUP0004T were diphosphatidylglycerol, unidentified phosphoglycolipid, phosphatidylinositol mannosides and unidentified glycolipid. The genomic DNA G+C content was 76.5 %. The average nucleotide identity values between SYSUP0004T and members of the genus Cellulomonas were below the cut-off level (95–96 %) recommended as the ANI criterion for interspecies identity. Thus, based on the above results strain SYSUP0004T represents a novel species of the genus Cellulomonas , for which the name Cellulomonas endophytica sp. nov. is proposed.

The 16S Rrna Gene

The taxonomic status of the species Clostridium methoxybenzovorans was assessed. The 16S rRNA gene sequence, whole-genome sequence and phenotypic characterizations suggested that the type strain deposited in the American Type Culture Collection ( C. methoxybenzovorans ATCC 700855T) is a member of the species Eubacterium callanderi . Hence, C. methoxybenzovorans ATCC 700855T cannot be used as a reference for taxonomic study. The type strain deposited in the German Collection of Microorganism and Cell Cultures GmbH (DSM 12182T) is no longer listed in its online catalogue. Also, both the 16S rRNA gene and the whole-genome sequences of the original strain SR3T showed high sequence identity with those of Lacrimispora indolis (recently reclassified from Clostridium indolis ) as the most closely related species. Analysis of the two genomes showed average nucleotide identity based on blast and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values of 98.3 and 87.9 %, respectively. Based on these results, C. methoxybenzovorans SR3T was considered to be a member of L. indolis .

A Gram-type positive, Gram-reaction variable, non-motile, psychrophilic actinobacterium, designated Cr8-25T, was isolated from alpine glacier cryoconite and was able to grow well over a temperature range of 1–15 °C. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain Cr8-25T belonged to the family Microbacteriaceae and showed highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with Klugiella xanthotipulae 44C3T (97.0 %). However, strain Cr8-25T could be differentiated from the type strain of K. xanthotipulae on the level of genomospecies by a DNA–DNA relatedness value of only 37.2 %. Strain Cr8-25T contained a cell-wall peptidoglycan that was cross-linked according to the B-type, which is based on 2,4-diaminobutyric acid. The cell wall contained the sugars galactose, fucose and rhamnose. The predominant cellular fatty acids of strain Cr8-25T were C15 : 0 anteiso (64.6 %) and iso-C16 : 0 (22.5 %) and the major menaquinones were MK-11 and MK-10. The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and unknown glycolipids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 58.8 mol%. On the basis of the phenotypic characteristics, phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic analyses and DNA–DNA relatedness data, strain Cr8-25T represents a novel species of a new genus in the family Microbacteriaceae , for which the name Alpinimonas psychrophila gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Cr8-25T ( = DSM 23737T = LMG 26215T).

The 16S Rrna Gene

The genus Natronolimnobius , currently including four species, is a member of the order Natrialbales , class Halobacteria, and consists of obligately alkaliphilic and extremely halophilic members found exclusively in highly alkaline hypersaline soda lakes. The species were classified into this genus mostly based on phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene. However, a more advanced phylogenomic reconstruction based on 122 conserved single-copy archaeal protein markers clearly indicates a polyphyletic origin of the species included into this genus, thus warranting its reclassification into three separate genera. We therefore propose to transfer Nlb. innermongolicus (type strain N-1311) to a new genus Natronolimnohabitans as Nlh. innermongolicus comb. nov. and to transfer Nlb. aegyptiacus (type strain JW/NM-HA 15) and Nlb. sulfurireducens (type strain AArc1) to a new genus Natrarchaeobaculum as Nbl. aegyptiacum comb. nov. and Nbl. sulfurireducens comb. nov. The phylogenomic differentiation of these four species is also supported by the ANI/AAI distances and unique phenotypes. The most important physiological differences includes a previously unreported ability for cellulose and xylan utilization in Nlb. baerhuensis, thermophily in Nbl. aegyptiacus and anaerobic sulfur respiration in Nbl. sulfurireducens. We further present an emended description of Natronolimnobius baerhuensis .

Four aerobic, Gram-stain-positive, rod-shaped bacteria (HY60T, HY54, HY82T and HY89) were isolated from bat faeces of Hipposideros and Rousettus species collected in PR China. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the four novel strains formed two separate but adjacent subclades close to Microbacterium agarici CGMCC 1.12260T (97.6–97.7 % similarity), Microbacterium humi JCM 18706T (97.3–97.5 %) and Microbacterium lindanitolerans JCM 30493T (97.3–97.4 %). The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity was 98.3 % between strains HY60T and HY82T, and identical within strain pairs HY60T/HY54 and HY82T/HY89. The DNA G+C contents of strains HY60T and HY82T were 61.9 and 63.3 mol%, respectively. The digital DNA–DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values between each novel strain and their closest relatives were all below the 70 % and 95–96 % thresholds for species delimitation, respectively. All four novel strains contained anteiso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 and iso-C15 : 0 as the main fatty acids, MK-11 and MK-12 as the major respiratory quinones, and diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and one unidentified glycolipid as the predominant polar lipids. The cell-wall peptidoglycan was of B type and contained alanine, glutamate, glycine and ornithine. The acyl type of the muramic acid was glycolyl. The whole-cell sugars were rhamnose and ribose. Based on the foregoing polyphasic analyses, it was concluded that the four uncharacterized strains represented two novel species of the genus Microbacterium , for which the names Microbacterium chengjingii sp. nov. [type strain HY60T (=CGMCC 1.17468T=GDMCC 1.1951T=KACC 22102T)] and Microbacterium fandaimingii sp. nov. [type strain HY82T (=CGMCC 1.17469T=GDMCC 1.1949T=KACC 22101T)] are proposed, respectively.
