A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped and non-motile novel bacterial strain, designated MAH-13T, was isolated from a soil sample. The colonies were observed to be yellow-coloured, smooth, spherical and 1.8–3.0 mm in diameter when grown on nutrient agar medium for 2 days. Strain MAH-13T was found to be able to grow at 20–40 °C, at pH 5.0–10.0 and with 0–1.0% NaCl (w/v). Cell growth occurred on tryptone soya agar, Luria–Bertani agar, nutrient agar and Reasoner's 2A agar. The strain was found to be positive for both oxidase and catalase tests. The strain was positive for hydrolysis of casein, starch, DNA and l-tyrosine. According to 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons, the isolate was identified as a member of the genus Frateuria and to be closely related to Frateuria terrea DSM 26515T (98.2% similarity), Dyella thiooxydans ATSB10T (98.2 %), Frateuria defendens HyOGT (97.9 %), Rhodanobacter glycinis MO64T (97.8 %) and Frateuria aurantia DSM 6220T (97.8 %). The novel strain MAH-13T has a draft genome size of 3 682 848 bp (40 contigs), annotated with 3172 protein-coding genes, 49 tRNA genes and three rRNA genes. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between strain MAH-13T and five closely related type strains were in the range of 73.7–85.5 % and 20.7–30.1%, respectively. The genomic DNA G+C content was determined to be 68.0 mol%. The predominant isoprenoid quinone was ubiquinone 8. The major fatty acids were identified as iso-C15:0, iso-C16:0 and summed feature 9 (iso-C17 : 1 ω9c and/or C16:0 10-methyl). On the basis of dDDH and ANI values, genotypic analysis, and chemotaxonomic and physiological data, strain MAH-13T represents a novel species within the genus Frateuria , for which the name Frateuria flava sp. nov. is proposed, with MAH-13T (=KACC 19743T=CGMCC 1.13655T) as the type strain.

A benzene, para- and meta-xylene-degrading Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, yellow-pigmented bacterium, designated as D2P1T, was isolated from a para-xylene-degrading enrichment culture. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA genes showed that D2P1T shares a distinct phyletic lineage within the genus Hydrogenophaga and shows highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Hydrogenophaga taeniospiralis NBRC 102512T (99.2 %) and Hydrogenophaga palleronii NBRC 102513T (98.3 %). The draft genome sequence of D2P1T is 5.63 Mb long and the genomic DNA G+C content is 65.5 %. Orthologous average nucleotide identity (OrthoANI) and digital DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH) analyses confirmed low genomic relatedness to its closest relatives (OrthoANI <86 %; dDDH <30 %). D2P1T contains ubiquinone 8 (Q-8) as the only respiratory quinone and phospholipid, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol as major polar lipids. The main whole-cell fatty acids of D2P1T are summed feature 3 (C16 : 1  ω7c/C16 : 1  ω6c), C16 : 0 and summed feature 8 (C18 : 1  ω7c/C18 : 1  ω6c). The polyphasic taxonomic results indicated that strain D2P1T represents a novel species of the genus Hydrogenophaga , for which the name Hydrogenophaga aromaticivorans sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is D2P1T (=LMG 31780T=NCAIM B 02655T).

A non-motile, straight-rod-shaped, Gram-stain-positive and facultative anaerobic bacterium (i.e., strain G1T) was isolated from production waters from an Algerian oilfield. Growth was observed in the presence of 0.3–3.5 % (w/v) NaCl, at 20–50 °C and at pH 6.0–9.0. Results of phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain G1T belonged to the genus Microbacterium . Strain G1 T was closely related to Microbacterium oxydans (DSM 20578T) and Microbacterium maritypicum (DSM 12512T) with 99.8 % sequence similarity and to Microbacterium saperdae (DSM 20169T) with 99.6 % sequence similarity. Strain G1 T contained MK9, MK10, MK11, MK12 and MK13 as respiratory quinones, and phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol and glycolipid as the major polar lipids. The major cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C15:0, iso-C16:0 and anteiso-C17:0. The estimated DNA G+C content was 69.57 mol% based on its draft genome sequence. Genome annotation of strain G1T predicted the presence of 3511 genes, of which 3483 were protein-coding and 47 were tRNA genes. The DNA–DNA hybridization (DDH) and average nucleotide identity (ANI) values between strain G1T and M. oxydans (DSM 20578T) and M. maritypicum (DSM 12512T) were in both cases far below the respective species boundary thresholds (27.5 and 28.0 % for DDH; and 84.40 and 84.82% for ANI, respectively). Based on the data presented above, strain G1T was considered to represent a novel species for which the name Microbacterium algeriense is proposed with the type strain G1T (=DSM 109018T=LMG 31276T).

Three Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, oxidase- and catalase-positive, rod-shaped, black, facultative phototrophic bacterial strains, RG-N-1aT, DMA-N-7a and RA-N-9 were isolated from the water sample from Lake Fertő/Neusiedler See (Hungary). Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the strains form a distinct linage within the family Rhodobacteraceae and their closest relatives are Tabrizicola piscis K13M18T (96.32%) followed by Cypionkella psychrotolerans PAMC 27389T (96.25%). The novel bacterial strains prefer alkaline environments and grow optimally at 23–33 °C in the presence of NaCl (1–2 w/v%). Bacteriochlorophyll a was detected. Cells contained exclusively ubiquinone Q-10. The major cellular fatty acids were C18 : 1ω7c, C19 : 1iso ω5c, C18 : 0 3-OH and C18 : 1ω7c 11-methyl. The polar lipid profile contains diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, an unidentified phospholipid and four unidentified lipids. The assembled draft genome of RG-N-1aT had 33 contigs with N50 values 315 027 nt, 96× genome coverage, total length of 4 326 551 bp and a DNA G+C content of 64.9%. Genome-based calculations (genome-to-genome distance and DNA G+C percentage) and pairwise amino acid identity (AAI <73.5%) indicate that RG-N-1aT represents a novel genus. RG-N-1aT (=DSM 108317T=NCAIM B.02647T) is suggested as the type strain of a novel genus and species in the family Rhodobacteraceae , for which the name Fertoeibacter niger gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed.
