Type Strains

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-spore-forming, non-motile and ovoid or rod-shaped bacterial strain, MYP5T, was isolated from seawater in Jeju island of South Korea. MYP5T grew optimally at 30–35 °C and in the presence of 2.0 % (w/v) NaCl. A neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that MYP5T fell within the clade enclosed by the type strains of species of the genus Alteromonas , clustering with the type strains of Alteromonas confluentis and Alteromonas halophila . MYP5T exhibited the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity value (98.0 %) to the type strain of A. confluentis and similarities of 95.1–97.9 % to the type strains of the other species of the genus Alteromonas . ANI and dDDH values of genomic sequences between MYP5T and the type strains of 22 species of the genus Alteromonas were 66.8–70.5 % and 18.6–27.5 %, respectively. The DNA G+C content of MYP5T, determined from the genome sequence, was 46.1 %. MYP5T contained Q-8 as the predominant ubiquinone and C18 : 1 ω7c, summed feature 3 (C16 : 1 ω7c and/or C16 : 1 ω6c), C16 : 0 and 10-methyl C17 : 0 as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipids of MYP5T were phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol. Distinguishing phenotypic properties, along with the phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, revealed that MYP5T is separated from species of the genus Alteromonas . On the basis of the data presented, MYP5T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Alteromonas , for which the name Alteromonas ponticola sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is MYP5T (=KCTC 82144T=NBRC 114354T).

Type Strains

Two Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacteria, strains E96T and E90T, were isolated from medicinal leeches (Hirudo verbana) and characterized by a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Phylogenetic analysis based on the nearly full-length 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that the two strains shared 98.1 % sequence similarity and were affiliated with the genus Niabella within the phylum Bacteroidetes , with 94.4–97.6 % sequence similarity to type strains of species of the genus Niabella and highest sequence similarity to the type strain of Niabella aurantiaca (97.3 and 97.6 %, respectively). Niabella -related 16S rRNA gene sequences were recently detected in the bladders of Hirudo verbana; however, no cultured representatives were so far available. Genomic fingerprint analysis using repetitive element primed (rep)- and randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD)-PCRs and DNA–DNA hybridization experiments clearly showed that the strains were different from each other (DNA–DNA relatedness values of 39.1 %, reciprocal 28.0 %) and from the type strains of N. aurantiaca (<19.7 %) and Niabella tibetensis (<41.1 %). Chemotaxonomic analyses confirmed the affiliation to the genus Niabella . Both strains contained MK-7 as the predominant menaquinone. The major fatty acids of both strains were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 1 G, iso-C17 : 0 3-OH and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH), which is characteristic for the genus Niabella . Based on genotypic, chemotaxonomic and physiological characterization, we propose two novel species of the genus Niabella , Niabella hirudinis sp. nov., with strain E96T ( = DSM 25812T = CCM 8411T = LMG 26956T) as the type strain, and Niabella drilacis sp. nov., with strain E90T ( = DSM 25811T = CCM 8410T = LMG 26954T) as the type strain.
