Physiological Tests

A yellow-pigmented bacterial strain, designated LL01T, was isolated from hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH)-contaminated soil at Spolana Neratovice, a former Czech producer of lindane. A neighbour-joining tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain LL01T occupied a distinct phylogenetic position in the Sphingobium cluster, showing highest similarity to Sphingobium rhizovicinum CC-FH12-1T (98.5 %). The DNA G+C content of strain LL01T was 66.1 mol%. The predominant respiratory pigment was ubiquinone Q-10. The polar lipid profile of strain LL01T also corresponded to those reported for other Sphingobium species (phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine, phosphatidyldimethylethanolamine, sphingoglycolipids), supporting its identification as a member of the genus Sphingobium . Spermidine was the major polyamine observed. The results obtained from DNA–DNA hybridization and biochemical and physiological tests clearly distinguished strain LL01T from closely related species of the genus Sphingobium . Therefore, strain LL01T represents a novel species of the genus Sphingobium , for which the name Sphingobium czechense sp. nov. is proposed (type strain LL01T = CCM 7979T = DSM 25410T).

Two endophytic strains, coded MOVP5T and MOPV6, were isolated from nodules of Phaseolus vulgaris plants grown on agricultural soil in Southeastern Spain, and were characterized through a polyphasic taxonomy approach. Their 16S rRNA gene sequences showed 99.3 and 99.4 %, 98.9 and 99.6 %, and 99.0 and 98.7% similarity to ‘ A. deltaense ’ YIC 4121T, A. radiobacter LGM 140T, and A. pusense NRCPB10T, respectively. Multilocus sequence analysis based on sequences of recA and atpD genes suggested that these two strains could represent a new Agrobacterium species with less than 96.5 % similarity to their closest relatives. PCR amplification of the telA gene, involved in synthesis of protelomerase, confirmed the affiliation of strains MOPV5T and MOPV6 to the genus Agrobacterium . Whole genome average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization average values were less than 95.1 and 66.7 %, respectively, with respect to its closest related species. Major fatty acids in strain MOPV5T were C18 : 1 ω7c/C18 : 1 ω6c in summed feature 8, C19 : 0 cyclo ω8c, C16 : 0 and C16 : 0 3-OH. Colonies were small to medium, pearl-white coloured on YMA at 28 °C and growth was observed at 10–42 °C, pH 5.0–10.0 and with 0.0–0.5 % (w/v) NaCl. The DNA G+C content was 59.9 mol%. These two strains differ from all other genomovars of Agrobacterium found so far, including those that have not yet given a Latin name. The combined genotypic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic data support the classification of strain MOPV5T as representing a novel species of Agrobacterium , for which the name Agrobacterium leguminum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is MOPV5T (=CECT 30096T=LMG 31779T).

A novel actinomycete, strain 30EHST, was isolated from the rhizospheric soil under an elephant ear plant (Caladium bicolor) in Jomthong district, Bangkok, Thailand. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain 30EHST fell within the cluster of the genus Streptosporangium . Chemical composition analysis confirmed that the strain represented a member of the genus Streptosporangium even though this strain produced a tightly packed single spore on aerial hyphae. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences demonstrated that strain 30EHST was most closely related to Streptosporangium fragile NBRC 14311T (98.1 %), Streptosporangium carneum NBRC 15562T (97.8 %) and Streptosporangium violaceochromogenes NBRC 15560T (97.4 %). The DNA–DNA hybridization relatedness values between strain 30EHST and the above three strains were below 70 %. Based on combined data for phylogenetic analysis, DNA–DNA hybridization relatedness and physiological characteristics, it was concluded that strain 30EHST should be classified as representing a novel species of the genus Streptosporangium . We propose the name Streptosporangium jomthongense sp. nov., with the type strain 30EHST ( = BCC 53154T = NBRC 110047T). An emended description of the genus Streptosporangium is also proposed.
