A Gram-staining-negative bacterium, designated 345S023T, was isolated from a sea water sample from the Indian Ocean. The results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that 345S023T represents a member of the genus Alteromonas , with closely related type strains Alteromonas fortis 1T (98.7 %), Alteromonas hispanica F-32T (98.6 %) and Alteromonas genovensis LMG 24078T (98.6 %). Up-to-date bacterial core gene set analysis revealed that 345S023T formed a phyletic lineage with Alteromonas australica H 17T. The case for 345S023T representing a novel species was supported by genomic results. Pairwise in silico DNA–DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values were much lower than the proposed and generally accepted species boundaries. Strain 345S023T contains ubiquinone-8 (Q-8) as the sole isoprenoid quinone, summed featured 3 (C16 : 1ω7c and/or C16 : 1ω6c), C16 : 0 and C18 : 1ω7c as the dominant cellular fatty acids (>10 %), and phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine as the major polar lipids. The genome of strain 345S023T consisted of a 4.4 Mb chromosome with a DNA G+C content of 44.4 %. On the basis of these genomic, chemotaxonomic and phenotypic characteristics, we propose a novel species: Alteromonas profundi sp. nov. The type strain is 345S023T(=JCM 33893T=MCCC 1K04570T).

A taxonomic study was carried out on strain CIC4N-9T, which was isolated from deep-sea water of the Indian Ocean. The bacterium was Gram-stain-negative, catalase- and oxidase-positive, rod-shaped and non-motile. Growth was observed at salinities of 0–9% and at temperatures of 4–41 °C. The isolate was able to degrade gelatin but not aesculin. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain CIC4N-9T belonged to the genus Pararhodobacter , with the highest sequence similarity to the only recognized species, Pararhodobacter aggregans D1-19T (96.9 %). The average nucleotide identity and estimated DNA–DNA hybridization values between strain CIC4N-9T and P. aggregans D1-19T were 80.4 and 23.0 %, respectively. The principal fatty acids were summed feature 8 (C18 : 1 ω7c and/or C18 : 1 ω6c), C16 : 0, C18 : 1ω7c 11-methyl, C18 : 0 and C17 : 0. The G+C content of the chromosomal DNA was 66.8 mol%. The sole respiratory quinone was determined to be Q-10. Phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, two unknown phospholipids, four unknown aminolipids and one unknown polar lipid were present. The combined genotypic and phenotypic data show that strain CIC4N-9T represents a novel species within the genus Pararhodobacter , for which the name Pararhodobacter marinus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CIC4N-9T (=MCCC 1A01225T=KCTC 52336T).

A Gram-staining-positive, aerobic and non-motile strain, 0704P10-1T, was isolated from hydrothermal sediment of the Indian Ocean. Phylogenetic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic data for the organism supported that it belonged to the genus Janibacter . Strain 0704P10-1T showed 97.2–98.7 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities to the type strains of recognized members of the genus Janibacter . It contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid in the cell wall. MK-8(H4) was the only menaquinone detected. The major fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, C17 : 1ω8c and 10-methyl C17 : 0. Meanwhile, the results of DNA–DNA hybridization studies and other physiological and biochemical tests allowed the genotypic and phenotypic differentiation of strain 0704P10-1T from closely related species. Thus, strain 0704P10-1T represents a novel species of the genus Janibacter , for which the name Janibacter indicus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 0704P10-1T ( = LMG 27493T = CGMCC 1.12511T).

A Gram-staining-positive, aerobic, motile bacterium, designated strain MJ3T, was isolated from myeolchi-jeot (anchovy jeotgal), a traditional fermented seafood in South Korea. Cells were non-endospore-forming cocci showing catalase- and oxidase-positive reactions. Growth of strain MJ3T was observed at 15–45 °C (optimum, 30 °C), at pH 6.0–9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0–8.0) and in the presence of 1–24 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 10 % NaCl). Phylogenetic inference based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain MJ3T formed a tight phyletic lineage with members of the genus Salimicrobium . Strain MJ3T was related most closely to Salimicrobium salexigens 29CMIT, Salimicrobium album DSM 20748T, Salimicrobium flavidum ISL-25T, Salimicrobium luteum BY-5T and Salimicrobium halophilum DSM 4771T, with similarities of 98.8 %, 98.7 %, 98.6 %, 98.4 % and 98.3 %, respectively. However, the DNA–DNA relatedness values between strain MJ3T (KF732837) and S. salexigens DSM 22782T, S. album DSM 20748T, S. flavidum DSM 23127T, S. luteum KCTC 3989T and S. halophilum JCM 12305T were 60±5.4 %, 58.5±6.5 %, 43.6±5.5 %, 37.2±5.8 % and 16.7±0.2 %, respectively. Chemotaxonomic data (sole isoprenoid quinone, MK-7; major cell-wall type, meso-diaminopimelic acid; major cellular fatty acids, anteiso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0 and iso-C15 : 0; major polar lipids, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol; DNA G+C content, 46.3 mol%) also supported the affiliation of strain MJ3T with the genus Salimicrobium . Therefore, strain MJ3T represents a novel species of the genus Salimicrobium , for which the name Salimicrobium jeotgali sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is MJ3T ( = KACC 16972T = JCM 19758T).

Two novel Gram-staining-negative, aerobic, cocci-shaped, non-motile, non-spore forming, pink-pigmented bacteria designated strains T6T and T18T, were isolated from a biocrust (biological soil crust) sample from the vicinity of the Tabernas Desert (Spain). Both strains were catalase-positive and oxidase-negative, and grew under mesophilic, neutrophilic and non-halophilic conditions. According to the 16S rRNA gene sequences, strains T6T and T18T showed similarities with Belnapia rosea CGMCC 1.10758T and Belnapia moabensis CP2CT (98.11 and 98.55% gene sequence similarity, respectively). The DNA G+C content was 69.80 and 68.96% for strains T6T and T18T, respectively; the average nucleotide identity by blast (ANIb) and digital DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH) values confirmed their adscription to two novel species within the genus Belnapia . The predominant fatty acids were summed feature 8 (C18 : 1ω7c/C18 : 1ω6c), C16 : 0, C18 : 1 2-OH and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c/C16 : 1ω6c). According to he results of the polyphasic study, strains T6T and T18T represent two novel species in the genus Belnapia (which currently includes only three species), for which names Belnapia mucosa sp. nov. (type strain T6T = CECT 30228T=DSM 112073T) and Belnapia arida sp. nov. (type strain T18T=CECT 30229T=DSM 112074T) are proposed, respectively.

A novel Gram-stain-negative strain, designated ZYY5T, was isolated from rice roots. Results of 16S rRNA gene analysis indicated that strain ZYY5T was a member of the genus Dickeya , with a highest similarity to Dickeya zeae DSM 18068T (98.5%). The major fatty acids were summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω7c and/or C16:1 ω6c), C16:0 and summed feature 8 (C18:1 ω7c and/or C18:1 ω6c). Multi-locus sequence analysis using five concatenated genes (16S rRNA, atpD, infB, recA and gyrB) and phylogenomic analysis based on 2940 core gene sequences showed that strain ZYY5T formed a robust cluster with strains EC1, ZJU1202, DZ2Q, NCPPB 3531 and CSL RW192, while separated from the other strains of D. zeae . The orthologous average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA–DNAhybridization (dDDH) values among these six strains ranged from 96.8–99.9% and 73.7–99.8%, which supported that they were belonged to the same species. However, strain ZYY5T shared 58.4 of dDDH and 94.5% of ANI values with type strain D. zeae DSM 18068T, which were lower than the proposed species boundary cut-off for dDDH and ANI. The genomic analysis revealed that strain ZYY5T contained virulence-associated genes, which is same as the phylogenetic-related strains of the genus Dickeya . Based on the results of the polyphasic approaches, we propose that strain ZYY5T represents a novel species in the genus Dickeya , for which the name Dickeya oryzae sp. nov. (=JCM 33020 T=ACCC 61554 T) is proposed. Strains EC1, ZJU1202, DZ2Q, NCPPB 3531 and CSL RW192 should also be classified in the same genomospecies of D. oryzae same as ZYY5T.

The average nucleotide identity values between strain ZS60T, L. daejeonensis GH1-9T and L. ruishenii CTN-1T were 78.14 and 78.39 %, respectively. The DNA–DNA relatedness between strain ZS60T, L. daejeonensis GH1-9T and L. caeni BUT-8T were 44.8 and 39.1 %, respectively. The genomic DNA G+C content of the strain ZS60T was 67.7 mol% (draft genome sequence), and Q-8 was the predominant ubiquinone. The major cellular fatty acids of strain ZS60T were iso-C15 : 0 (23.4 %), iso-C17 : 0 (17.2 %) and iso-C17 : 1  ω9c (12.6 %). On the basis of genotypic, phenotypic and biochemical data, strain ZS60T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Lysobacter , for which the name Lysobacter psychrotolerans sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is ZS60T (=CGMCC 1.15509T=NBRC 112614T).

A Gram-stain-negative, facultative anaerobic, red-pigmented, rod-shaped and non-motile strain (RC1_OXG_1FT) was isolated from deep sea water of the Indian Ocean. It was able to grow at pH 5–8 (optimum, pH 7), at 5–37 °C (optimum, 30 °C), and at salinity (% NaCl, w/v) of 0.5–5 % (optimum, 1–2 %). Catalase- and oxidase-positive. It had highest 16S rRNA gene similarity (96.7 %) to ‘ Sunxiuqinia dokdonensis ’ DH1T, followed by Sunxiuqinia faeciviva JAM-BA0302T (96.6 %), Sunxiuqinia elliptica CGMCC 1.9156T (96.2 %), Sunxiuqinia rutila HG677T (96.0 %) and species (less than 92.3 %) of other genera. It belongs to the genus Sunxiuqinia within the phylum Bacteroidetes , based on the phylogenetic analysis. The results of digital DNA–DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity analyses indicated that the strain belonged to a novel species. Its genome size is 5,250, 885 bp, with DNA G+C content of 40.5 mol%. Genome analysis revealed that the strain possessed many genes involved in polysaccharide degradation, especially hemicellulose degradation, indicating that the strain could maintain its normal metabolism by using recalcitrant organic matter in the oligotrophic deep sea environment. Its principal fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0 and iso-C15 : 0 and the major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, two unidentified glycolipids, three unidentified phospholipids and two unidentified polar lipids. The isoprenoid quinone was MK-7. Based on the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and genotypic data, the strain represents a novel species within the genus Sunxiuqinia , for which the name Sunxiuqinia indica sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is RC1_OXG_1FT (=MCCC 1A13858T=KCTC 62805T).

A novel Gram-staining-negative, catalase- and oxidase-positive, facultatively anaerobic and rod-shaped motile bacterial strain, designated as ZWAL4003T, was isolated from mangrove sediments of the Zini Mangrove Forest, Zhangzhou City, PR China. Phylogenetic analysis based on its 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that ZWAL4003T was grouped into a separated branch with Vibrio plantisponsor MSSRF60T (97.38% nucleotide sequence identity) and Vibrio diazotrophicus NBRC 103148T (97.27%). The major cellular fatty acids were C14 : 0 (12.6%), C16 : 0 (17.6%), and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω6c /C16 : 1 ω7c, 45.6%). Its genome had a length of 4650556 bp with 42.8% DNA G+C content, and contained genes involved in the biosynthesis of bacteriocin, β-lactone, resorcinol, N-acyl amino acid, and arylpolyene. The in silico DNA–DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values for whole-genome sequence comparisons between ZWAL4003T and V. plantisponsor LMG 24470T were clearly below the thresholds used for the delineation of a novel species. The morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics and the genotypic data of ZWAL4003T indicated that it represented a novel species of the genus Vibrio . Its proposed name is Vibrio ziniensis sp. nov., and the type strain is ZWAL4003T (=KCTC 72971T=MCCC 1A17474T).
