Abstract An aerobic, Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped bacterium with flagellum, designated L22T, was isolated from freshwater of Hulun Lake, Inner Mongolia, China. The organism was found to grow optimally at 30 ℃ in medium containing 0-0.75%(w/v) NaCl at pH 7.5. The major fatty acid identified was summed feature 8 (C16:1ω7c). The dominant polar lipids were phosphomonoester, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylcholine. The main ubiquinone was Q-10. The G + C content of genomic DNA was 69.8 mol%. The 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain L22T was affiliated with the genus Methylobrevis within the family Pleomorphomonadaceae, being most closely related to M. pamukkalensis JCM 30229T with 95.9% sequences similarity. Based on taxonomic results in this study, we proposed that strain L22T was placed into a novel species in the genus Methylobrevis of the family Pleomorphomonadaceae, for which the name Methylobrevis albus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is L22T (= KCTC 72858T = MCCC 1H00432T).

Strain JC268T was isolated from pebbles collected from a dam located in Lalitpur, Uttar Pradesh, India. Cells of strain JC268T were coccoid, appeared in pairs/triads/tetrads or short chains and were Gram-stain-positive, non-spore-forming, non-motile and obligately aerobic. Strain JC268T was catalase- and oxidase-positive and utilized citrate for growth. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain JC268T was 65.3 mol%. The cell-wall peptidoglycan contained l-lysine–l-serine–d-aspartic acid as interpeptide bridge with the type A4α. The major menaquinone was MK-8(H4). Major (>10 %) fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, iso-C16 : 1H and anteiso-C17 : 1ω9c. Diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphoglycolipid, phosphatidylinositol, glycolipid, four unidentified lipids, an amino lipid and phospholipid were the polar lipids of strain JC268T. EzTaxon-e blast search of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain JC268T has highest similarity to Barrientosiimonas humi 39T (98.65 %) and Tamlicoccus marinus MSW-24T (97.8 %) of the family Dermacoccaceae. Genome reassociation (based on DNA–DNA hybridization) of strain JC268T with Barrientosiimonas humi CGMCC 4.6864T ( = 39T) and T. marinus KCTC 19485T ( = MSW-24T) yielded values of 32.5 ± 2 % and 27.3 ± 2 %, respectively. Based on the data from phylogenetic and polyphasic taxonomic analyses, strain JC268T represents a novel species of the genus Barrientosiimonas for which the name Barrientosiimonas endolithica sp. nov., is proposed. The type strain of Barrientosiimonas endolithica is JC268T ( = KCTC 29672T = NBRC 110608T). Our data suggest that T. marinus should be reclassified within the genus Barrientosiimonas. Thus, a reclassification is proposed for T. marinus, the type and only species of the genus Tamlicoccus, as Barrientosiimonas marina comb. nov., which implies the emendation of the description of the genus Barrientosiimonas.

A Gram-positive, aerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped, spore-forming bacterium, designated Gsoil 139T, was isolated from soil from a ginseng field in Pocheon Province, South Korea, and was characterized using a polyphasic approach. Comparative analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain Gsoil 139T belongs to the family Paenibacillaceae. The greatest sequence similarity was found with respect to the type strains of Paenibacillus hodogayensis (95.6 %) and Paenibacillus koleovorans (93.8 %). The strain showed less than 93.8 % sequence similarity with respect to other species of the genus Paenibacillus. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 48.1 mol%. In addition, the presence of MK-7 as the major menaquinone and C15 : 0 anteiso as a major fatty acid (27.9 %) justifies its affiliation to the genus Paenibacillus. On the basis of its phenotypic characteristics and phylogenetic distinctiveness, strain Gsoil 139T represents a novel species within the genus Paenibacillus, for which the name Paenibacillus ginsengarvi sp. nov. is proposed.
