In the present study, the taxonomic positions of five strains (C, 17-2, LMG 10779T, LMG 18969 and LMG 11483) of Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides were re-evaluated by a polyphasic approach, including the analyses of 16S rRNA, pheS and rpoA gene sequences, cellular fatty acids, average nucleotide and amino acid identities (ANI and AAI), digital DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH), and phenotypic features. Based on rpoA sequence analysis, the five strains and L. pseudomesenteroides LMG 11482T were divided into two groups: strains C, LMG 10779T and LMG 18969; strains 17-2, LMG 11483 and LMG 11482T. Each of the two groups had almost identical rpoA sequences. The rpoA sequence similarity between strain LMG 10779T and L. pseudomesenteroides LMG 11482T was 95.6 %. Strains LMG 11483 and 17-2 had 98.1 and 97.2 % ANI values, 83.5 and 73.2 % dDDH values, and a 97.0 % AAI value with L. pseudomesenteroides LMG 11482T, greater than the threshold for species demarcation, indicating that strains LMG 11483 and 17-2 belong to L. pseudomesenteroides . Strains LMG 18969 and C shared 97.1 and 98.2 % ANI values, 73.4 and 83.2 % dDDH values, and 96.9 and 96.6 % AAI values with strain LMG 10779T, greater than the threshold for species demarcation, indicating that strains LMG 10779T, LMG 18969 and C represent the same species. The ANI, dDDH and AAI values between strain LMG 10779T and the type strains of phylogenetically related species were 75.2–92.5, 20.0–48.2 and 75.3–93.9 %, respectively, below the thresholds for species demarcation, indicating that strain LMG 10779T represents a novel species within the genus Leuconostoc . On the basis of the results presented here, (i) strains 17-2 and LMG 11483 belong to L. pseudomesenteroides , and (ii) strains LMG 10779T, LMG 18969 and C are considered to represent a novel species within the genus Leuconostoc , for which the name Leuconostoc falkenbergense sp. nov. is proposed with the type strain LMG 10779T (=CCUG 27119T).

Type Strains

Four strains (JA310T, JA531T, JA447 and JA490) of red to reddish brown pigmented, rod-shaped, motile and budding phototrophic bacteria were isolated from soil and freshwater sediment samples from different geographical regions of India. All strains contained bacteriochlorophyll a and carotenoids of the spirilloxanthin series. The major cellular fatty acid of strains JA310T and JA531T was C18 : 1ω7c, the quinone was Q-10 and polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, an aminohopanoid and an unidentified aminolipid. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that all strains clustered with species of the genus Rhodopseudomonas in the class Alphaproteobacteria . Strains JA531T, JA447 and JA490 were genotypically (>80 % related based on DNA–DNA hybridization) and phenotypically closely related to each other and the three strains were distinct from strain JA310T (33 % related). Furthermore, all four strains had less than 48 % relatedness (DNA–DNA hybridization) with type strains of members of the genus Rhodopseudomonas , i.e. Rhodopseudomonas palustris ATCC 17001T, Rhodopseudomonas faecalis JCM 11668T and Rhodopseudomonas rhenobacensis DSM 12706T. The genomic DNA G+C contents of strains JA310T and JA531T were 63.8 and 62.4 mol%, respectively. On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and molecular genetic evidence, it is proposed that strains JA310T ( = NBRC 106083T = KCTC 5839T) and JA531T ( = NBRC 107575T = KCTC 5841T) be classified as the type strains of two novel species of the genus Rhodopseudomonas , Rhodopseudomonas parapalustris sp. nov. and Rhodopseudomonas harwoodiae sp. nov., respectively. In addition, we propose that strain DSM 123T ( = NBRC 100419T) represents a novel species, Rhodopseudomonas pseudopalustris sp. nov., since this strain differs genotypically and phenotypically from R. palustris ATCC 17001T and other members of the genus Rhodopseudomonas . An emended description of R. palustris is also provided.

Type Strains

Two novel isolates of rapidly growing, Gram-stain-positive, non-chromogenic species of the genus Mycobacterium , strain YIM M13028T from a sediment sample collected from the South China Sea (19° 30.261′ N 111° 0.247′ E) at a depth of 42 m and strain YIM 121001T from a coastal zone sand sample collected in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, were obtained in our laboratory. Their taxonomic positions were determined by a polyphasic approach. Good growth of the two strains was observed at 28 °C and pH 7.0 with 0–2 % NaCl on tryptic soy agar medium. Both strains formed round orange–red colonies, strain YIM M13028T had a rough surface, while YIM 121001T was smooth. Cellular fatty acids, whole-cell protein profiles and TLC analysis of their mycolic acids show significant differences from reference stains. Phenotypic characteristics and multilocus sequence analysis (MLSA) of 16S rRNA gene, hsp65, rpoB and 16S–23S internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences indicated that both strains YIM M13028T and YIM 121001T belong to the genus Mycobacterium . DNA–DNA hybridization values revealed a low relatedness (<70 %) of the two isolates with the type strains Mycobacterium neoaurum DSM 44074T and Mycobacterium hodleri DSM 44183T. The low DNA–DNA hybridization values (40.4±3.5 %) between strains YIM M13028T and YIM 121001T and phenotypic distinctiveness indicated that the two strains were representatives of different novel species of the genus Mycobacterium . The names proposed for these novel species are Mycobacterium sediminis sp. nov. and Mycobacterium arabiense sp. nov., and the type strains are YIM M13028T ( = DSM 45643T = KCTC 19999T) and YIM 121001T ( = DSM 45768T = JCM 18538T), respectively.

A Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, motile, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain Mn1-7T, was isolated from manganese mining soil in Tianjin, China. The closest phylogenetic relatives were Lysinibacillus massiliensis CCUG 49529T (97.2 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), L. xylanilyticus XDB9T (96.7 %), L. sinduriensis JCM 15800T (96.2 %), L. odysseyi NBRC 100172T (95.9 %) and L. boronitolerans NBRC 103108T (95.4 %) (the type species of the genus). DNA–DNA hybridization values for strain Mn1-7T with the type strains of L. massiliensis and L. sinduriensis were 24.9 and 27.7 %, respectively. The genomic DNA G+C content was 38.4 mol%. The major menaquinone was MK-7 and the major fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 and iso-C14 : 0. The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylglycerol. The cell-wall peptidoglycan was type A4α (l-Lys–d-Asp), and the predominant cell-wall sugar was xylose. DNA–DNA hybridization results and comparison of phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characters between strain Mn1-7T and the phylogenetically most closely related strains revealed that the isolate represents a novel species of the genus Lysinibacillus , for which the name Lysinibacillus manganicus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Mn1-7T ( = DSM 26584T = CCTCC AB 2012916T).

A novel actinobacterial strain, A4029T, isolated from arid soil of Abuja, Nigeria, and provisionally assigned to the genus Actinoplanes , was subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity studies showed that strain A4029T belonged to the genus Actinoplanes , being most closely related to Actinoplanes brasiliensis DSM 43805T (98.9 %) and Actinoplanes deccanensis DSM 43806T (98.0 %); similarity to other type strains of the genus Actinoplanes ranged from 96.2 to 97.9 %. Chemotaxonomic data [major menaquinone MK-9(H4); major polar lipids phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol; characteristic sugars arabinose and xylose; major fatty acids iso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0, C17 : 1ω9c and iso-C14 : 0] confirmed the affiliation of strain A4029T to the genus Actinoplanes . The results of DNA–DNA hybridizations and phylogenetic analysis, together with phenotypic and biochemical test data, allowed strain A4029T to be differentiated from strains of other Actinoplanes species. Therefore, strain A4029T represents a novel species, for which the name Actinoplanes abujensis sp. nov. is proposed, with A4029T ( = DSM 45518T = NRRL B-24835T = KCTC 19984T) as the type strain.

The 16S Rrna Gene

During the isolation of bacteria from the Agave L. rhizosphere in northeast Mexico, four strains with similar BOX-PCR patterns were collected. The 16S rRNA gene sequences of all four strains were very similar to each other and that of the type strains of Cupriavidus metallidurans CH34T (98.49 % sequence similarity) and Cupriavidus necator N-1T (98.35 %). The genome of strain ASC-9842T was sequenced and compared to those of other Cupriavidus species. ANIb and ANIm values with the most closely related species were lower than 95%, while the in silico DNA–DNA hybridization values were also much lower than 70 %, consistent with the proposal that they represent a novel species. This conclusion was supported by additional phenotypic and chemotaxonomic analyses. Therefore, the name Cupriavidus agavae sp. nov. is proposed with the type strain ASC-9842T (=LMG 26414T=CIP 110327T).

Emended Description

Two yellow-pigmented, Gram-reaction-negative strains, designated 01SU5-PT and 03SU3-PT, were isolated from the freshwater of Woopo wetland, Republic of Korea. Both strains were aerobic, non-motile and catalase-negative. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the two isolates belong to the genus Sphingopyxis , showing the highest level of sequence similarity with respect to Sphingopyxis witflariensis W-50T (95.4–95.7 %). The two novel isolates shared 99.4 % sequence similarity. DNA–DNA hybridization between the isolates and the type strain of S. witflariensis clearly suggested that strains 01SU5-PT and 03SU3-PT represent two separate novel species in the genus Sphingopyxis . The two strains displayed different fingerprints after PCR analysis using the repetitive primers BOX, ERIC and REP. Several phenotypic characteristics served to differentiate these two isolates from recognized members of the genus Sphingopyxis . The data from the polyphasic study presented here indicated that strains 01SU5-PT and 03SU3-PT should be classified as representing novel species in the genus Sphingopyxis , for which the names Sphingopyxis rigui sp. nov. and Sphingopyxis wooponensis sp. nov., respectively, are proposed. The type strain of Sphingopyxis rigui sp. nov. is 01SU5-PT ( = KCTC 23326T = JCM 17509T) and the type strain of Sphingopyxis wooponensis sp. nov. is 03SU3-PT ( = KCTC 23340T = JCM 17547T).
