Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, non-spore-forming, non-motile, and rod-shaped bacterial strains, designated NC18T and NC20, were isolated from the sediment near-vertical borehole effluent originating 714 m below the subsurface located in the Soudan Iron Mine in Minnesota, USA. The 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that strains NC18T and NC20 grouped with members of the genus Martelella, including M. mediterranea DSM 17316T and M. limonii YC7034T. The genome sizes and G + C content of both NC18T and NC20 were 6.1 Mb and 61.8 mol%, respectively. Average nucleotide identity (ANI), the average amino acid identity (AAI), and digital DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH) values were below the species delineation threshold. Pan-genomic analysis showed that NC18T, NC20, M. mediterranea DSM 17316T, M. endophytica YC6887T, and M. lutilitoris GH2-6T had 8470 pan-genome orthologous groups (POGs) in total. Five Martelella strains shared 2258 POG core, which were mainly associated with amino acid transport and metabolism, general function prediction only, carbohydrate transport and metabolism, translation, ribosomal structure and biogenesis, and transcription. The two novel strains had major fatty acids (>5%) including summed feature 8 (C18:1 ω7c and/or C18:1 ω6c), C19:0 cyclo ω8c, C16:0, C18:1 ω7c 11-methyl, C18:0, and summed feature 2 (C12:0 aldehyde and/or iso-C16:1 I and/or C14:0 3-OH). The sole respiratory quinone was uniquinone-10 (Q-10). On the basis of polyphasic taxonomic analyses, strains NC18T and NC20 represent novel species of the genus Martelella, for which the name Martelella soudanensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NC18T (=KTCT 82174T = NBRC 114661T).

Genome Analyses

A cream-coloured, Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain KSC-6T, was isolated from soil sampled at the Gapcheon River watershed in Daejeon, Republic of Korea. The organism does not require NaCl for growth and grows at pH 6.0–8.0 (optimum, pH 7.0) and 10–37 °C (optimum, 25 °C). Phylogenetic trees based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences reveal that strain KSC-6T belongs to the family Chitinophagaceae within the order Chitinophagales and is most closely related to Panacibacter ginsenosidivorans Gsoil 1550T (95.9% similarity). The genomic DNA G+C content was 38.9 mol%. The major cellular fatty acids (>8 %) of strain KCS-6T were iso-C15:0, iso-C15 : 1 G and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH. The predominant respiratory quinone was menaquinone 7 and the predominant polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, five unidentified aminolipids and two unidentified lipids. Based on genome analyses, low digital DNA–DNA hybridization, average nucleotide identity and average amino acid identity values with closely related genera, and differential chemotaxonomic and physiological properties, we suggest that strain KCS-6T represents a novel species in a new genus in the family Chitinophagaceae , for which the name Limnovirga soli gen. nov., sp. nov. (type strain KCS-6T=KCCM 43337T=NBRC 114336T) is proposed.

Nitrate And Nitrite

Two Gram-stain-negative, facultative anaerobic, chemoheterotrophic, pink-coloured, rod-shaped and non-motile bacterial strains, PAMC 26568 and PAMC 26569T, were isolated from an Antarctic lichen. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strains PAMC 26568 and PAMC 26569T belong to the family Acetobacteraceae and the most closely related species are Gluconacetobacter takamatsuzukensis (96.1 %), Gluconacetobacter tumulisoli (95.9 %) and Gluconacetobacter sacchari (95.7 %). Phylogenomic and genomic relatedness analyses showed that strains PAMC 26568 and PAMC 26569T are clearly distinguished from other genera in the family Acetobacteraceae by average nucleotide identity values (<72.8 %) and the genome-to-genome distance values (<22.5 %). Genomic analysis revealed that strains PAMC 26568 and PAMC 26569T do not contain genes involved in atmospheric nitrogen fixation and utilization of sole carbon compounds such as methane and methanol. Instead, strains PAMC 26568 and PAMC 26569T possess genes to utilize nitrate and nitrite and certain monosaccharides and disaccharides. The major fatty acids (>10 %) are summed feature 8 (C18 : 1 ω7c and/or C18 : 1 ω6c; 40.3–40.4 %), C18 : 1 2OH (22.7–23.7 %) and summed feature 2 (C14 : 0 3OH and/or C16 : 1 iso I; 12.0 % in PAMC 26568). The major respiratory quinone is Q-10. The genomic DNA G+C content of PAMC 26568 and PAMC 26569T is 64.6 %. Their distinct phylogenetic position and some physiological characteristics distinguish strains PAMC 26568 and PAMC 26569T from other genera in the family Acetobacteraceae supporting the proposal of Lichenicola gen. nov., with the type species Lichenicola cladoniae sp. nov. (type strain, PAMC 26569T=KCCM 43315T=JCM 33604T).

Abstract An aerobic, gram-negative, pink-colored, non-motile, rod-shaped algicidal bacterium, designated JA-25T was isolated from the freshwater of the Geumgang River, Republic of Korea. It grew at 15–30°C, 6.0–9.0 pH, and in the presence of 0–1% (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain JA-25T belongs to the Family ‘Spirosomaceae’ and is most closely related to Fibrella aestuarina BUZ 2T (93.6%). The strain JA-25T showed < 90% sequence similarity to other members of the Family ‘Spirosomaceae’. The average nucleotide identity(ANI), in silico DNA-DNA hybridization and the average amino acid identity(AAI) values based on the genomic sequences of JA-25T and F. aestuarina BUZ 2T were 74.4, 20.5 and 73.6 %, respectively. The genomic DNA G + C content was 52.5mol %. The major cellular fatty acids were Summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω6c/C16:1 ω7c), C16:1 ω5c, C16:0 (> 10%). The genomic DNA G + C content was 52.5 mol %. The major respiratory quinone was MK-7 and the polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, two unidentified aminolipids, two phospholipids and five unidentified lipids. Considering the phylogenetic inference, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic data, strain JA-25T should be classified as a novel species of the novel genus Fibrivirga, with the proposed name Fibrivirga algicola sp. nov. The type strain is JA-25T (= KCCM 43334T = NBRC 114259T).

Three Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, non-motile and rod-shaped bacterial strains, designated as HME9299T, HMF7410T and HMF7856T, were isolated from freshwater and tree bark collected in Yong-in, Republic of Korea. Strains HME9299T, HMF7410T and HMF7856T exhibited the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities of 97.2, 94.4 and 96.4 % to Mucilaginibacter daejeonensis Jip 10T, Mucilaginibacter terrae CCM 8645T and Mucilaginibacter phyllosphaerae PP-F2F-G21T, respectively. Among themselves, the values were 94.1–95.7 %. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences of the three isolates revealed that they belonged to the genus Mucilaginibacter within the family Sphingobacteriaceae . The predominant fatty acids of three strains were summed feature 3 (comprising C16 : 1  ω7c and/or C16 : 1  ω6c) and iso-C15 : 0. Strain HME9299T contained a relatively large amount of C16 : 1  ω5c. The predominant respiratory quinone was menaquinone-7. The genome sizes of strains HME9299T, HMF7410T and HMF7856T were 4.33, 4.16 and 3.68 Mbp, respectively, and their DNA G+C contents were 41.6, 38.4 and 43.9 mol%, respectively. Based on the results of the phenotypic, genotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic investigation, three novel species, Mucilaginibacter aquatilis sp. nov, Mucilaginibacter arboris sp. nov. and Mucilaginibacter ginkgonis sp. nov., are proposed. The type strains are HME9299T (=KCTC 42122T=DSM 29146T), HMF7410T (=KCTC 62464T=NBRC 113227T) and HMF7856T (=KCTC 72782T=NBRC 114275T), respectively.

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic and non-motile bacterium, strain sand1-3T, was isolated from beach sand collected from Haeundae Beach located in Busan, Republic of Korea. Based on the results of 16S rRNA gene sequence and phylogenetic analyses, Sphingomonas daechungensis CH15-11T (97.0 %), Sphingomonas edaphi DAC4T (96.8 %), Sphingomonas xanthus AE3T (96.5 %) and Sphingomonas oryziterrae YC6722T (96.0 %) were selected for comparing phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics. Cells of strain sand1-3T grew at 7–50 °C (optimum, 30–35 °C), pH 5.0–8.0 (optimum, pH 7.0–8.0) and in the presence of 0–0.5 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0 %). Major polar lipids included diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, sphingoglycolipid, one unidentified glycolipid and one unidentified phosphoglycolipid. The major fatty acids were summed feature 8 (C18 : 1 ω6c and/or C18 : 1 ω7c) and C18 : 1 2-OH. Moreover, the sole respiratory quinone and major polyamine were identified as ubiquinone-10 and homospermidine, respectively. The genomic DNA G+C content was 65.9 mol%. The digital DNA–DNA hybridization, average nucleotide identity and average amino acid identity values of strain sand1-3T and its reference strains with publicly available genomes were 17.9–18.9 %, 72.0–75.3 % and 63.3–76.5 % respectively. Based on polyphasic evidence, we propose Sphingomonas sabuli sp. nov. as a novel species within the genus Sphingomonas . The type strain is sand1-3T (=KCTC 82358T=NBRC 114538T).

Distinct Evolutionary Lineage

Six Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped, and motile by gliding bacterial strains were isolated from Pacific green and red algae. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences placed the novel strains into the genus Zobellia as a distinct evolutionary lineage close to Zobellia nedashkovskayae Asnod2-B07-BT and Zobellia laminariae KMM 3676T sharing the highest similarity of 99.7% and 99.5%, respectively. The average nucleotide identity and the average amino acid identity values between strains 36-CHABK-3-33T and Z. nedashkovskayae Asnod2-B07-BT and Z. laminariae KMM 3676T were 89.7%/92.9% and 94.2%/95.8%, respectively. The digital DNA–DNA hybridization values based on the draft genomes between strains 36-CHABK-3-33T and Z. nedashovskayae Asnod2-B07-BT and Z. laminariae KMM 3676T were 39.5 ± 2.5% and 59.6 ± 2.7%, respectively. Multilocus sequence analysis based on house-keeping genes (dnaK, gyrB, pyrH, recA and topA) assigned the alga-associated isolates to the same species, which clustered separately from the recognized species of the genus Zobellia. The strains under study grew at 4–32 °C and with 0.5–8% NaCl and decomposed aesculin, gelatin, DNA, and Tweens 20 and 80, and weakly agar. The DNA G+C content was 36.7% calculated from genome sequence analysis for the strain 36-CHABK-3-33T. The predominant fatty acids of strain 36-CHABK-3-33T (> 5% of the total fatty acids) were iso-C17:0 3-OH, summed feature 3 (comprising C16:1 ω7c and/or iso-C15:0 2-OH fatty acids), iso-C15:0, iso-C15:1 G, and C15:0. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, three unidentified lipids, and two unidentified aminolipids. The only detected respiratory quinone was MK-6. The significant molecular distinctiveness between the novel isolates and their nearest neighbor was strongly supported by differences in physiological and biochemical tests. Therefore, the six novel strains represent a novel species of the genus Zobellia, for which the name Zobellia barbeyronii sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 36-CHABK-3-33T (= KACC 21790T = KMM 6746T).

A novel Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-spore-forming, non-motile, and rod-shaped bacterium, strain ETT8T was isolated from a chemostat culture of microalga Ettlia sp. YC001. Optimal growth was with 0–2% NaCl and at 25–37 °C on R2A medium. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene and genome sequence showed that strain ETT8T belongs to the genus Tabrizicola , with the close neighbours being T. sediminis DRYC-M-16T (98.1 %), T. alkalilacus DJCT (97.6 %), T. fusiformis SY72T (96.9 %), T. piscis K13M18T (96.8 %), and T. aquatica RCRI19T (96.5 %). The genomic comparison of strain ETT8T with type species in the genus Tabrizicola was analysed using the genome-to-genome distance calculator (GGDC), average nucleotide identity (ANI), and average amino acid identity (AAI) (values indicated ≤17.7, ≤75.4 and ≤71.9 %, respectively). The genomic DNA G+C content of strain ETT8T was 64.4 %, plus C18 : 1  ω6c and C18 : 0-iso were the major fatty acids and Q-10 the major respiratory quinone. Strain ETT8T contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine aminolipid, and four unidentified lipids as the major polar lipids. Based on the chemotaxonomic, genotypic, and phenotype results, strain ETT8T was recognized as a novel species of the genus Tabrizicola for which the name Tabrizicola algicola sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is ETT8T (=KCTC 72206T=JCM 31893T=MCC 4339T).

A Gram-stain-negative, short-rod-shaped and pink-pigmented bacterial strain (HB172049T) was isolated from mangrove sediment. Cells grew at 10–45 °C (optimum, 30 °C), pH 6.0–9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0) and with 0.5–9.0 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 2–5 %). Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that the isolate had highest sequence similarities to Pontibacter mucosus DSM 100162T (96.5 %) and Pontibacter korlensis X14-1T (96.5 %). The values of average nucleotide identity, average amino acid identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization between the isolate and its close neighbours were, respectively, less than 80.1, 81.7 and 23.2 %. Chemotaxonomic analysis indicated that the sole respiratory quinone was MK-7 and the predominant cellular fatty acids were summed feature 4 and iso-C15 : 0 (42.2 and 24.6 %, respectively). The major polar lipids consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, one unidentified glycolipid, one unidentified phospholipid, one unidentified aminophospholipid and two unidentified polar lipids. The genomic DNA G+C content was 52.6 mol%. Based on polyphasic taxonomic characterization, it is proposed that strain HB172049T belongs to the genus Pontibacter and represents a novel species, for which the name Pontibacter mangrovi sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HB172049T (=CGMCC 1.16729T=JCM 33333T).

Strain ISS653T, isolated from Atlantic seawater, is a yellow pigmented, non-motile, Gram-reaction-negative rod-shaped bacterium, strictly aerobic and chemoorganotrophic, slightly halophilic (1–15 % NaCl) and mesophilic (4–37 °C), oxidase- and catalase-positive and proteolytic. Its major cellular fatty acids are iso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 0 2-OH, and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH; the major identified phospholipid is phosphatidylethanolamine and the major respiratory quinone is MK6. Genome size is 4.28 Mbp and DNA G+C content is 34.9 mol%. 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity places the strain among members of the family Flavobacteriaceae, with the type strains of Mesonia phycicola (93.2 %), Salegentibacter mishustinae (93.1 %) and Mesonia mobilis (92.9 %) as closest relatives. Average amino acid identity (AAI) and average nucleotide identity (ANI) indices show highest values with M. mobilis (81 % AAI; 78.9 % ANI), M. phycicola (76 % AAI; 76.3 % ANI), Mesonia maritima (72 % AAI, 74.9 % ANI), Mesonia hippocampi (64 % AAI, 70.8 % ANI) and Mesonia algae (68 % AAI; 72.2 % ANI). Phylogenomic analysis using the Up-to-date-Bacterial Core Gene set (UBCG) merges strain ISS653T in a clade with species of the genus Mesonia . We conclude that strain ISS653T represents a novel species of the genus Mesonia for which we propose the name Mesonia oceanica sp. nov., and strain ISS653T (=CECT 9532T=LMG 31236T) as the type strain. A second strain of the species, ISS1889 (=CECT 30008) was isolated from Pacific Ocean seawater. Data obtained throughout the Tara oceans expedition indicate that the species is more abundant in the mesopelagic dark ocean than in the photic layer and it is more frequent in the South Pacific, Indian and North Atlantic oceans.
