Research at the Center for Biological Defense identified plasmid-borne forms of Bacillus anthracis pXO2 genes in a Gram-positive, endospore-forming rod, isolated from a forensic specimen considered a credible threat of harbouring anthrax. Conventional, commercial and molecular-based methods indicated that the isolate (CBD 119T) was not B. anthracis and considered not to be a member of the Bacillus cereus group. Based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities, strain CBD 119T was most closely related to Bacillus luciferensis LMG 18422T (99.3 %). Phenotyping and fatty acid methyl ester analysis of the isolate were conducted alongside B. luciferensis JCM 12212T. The major cellular fatty acids (anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 0, and >7 iso or anteiso forms) supported inclusion of the isolate in the genus Bacillus. Strain CBD 119T was inconsistent with B. luciferensis JCM 12212T for 18 of 96 traits evaluated including motility, degree of endospore-driven swelling and pH optimum; the two were linked by fatty acid methyl ester analysis as separate but closely related species. DNA–DNA relatedness between strain CBD 119T and B. luciferensis JCM 12212T resulted in less than 20 % hybridization. The results of biochemical and physiological characterization, chemotaxonomic analysis and DNA–DNA hybridization differentiated strain CBD 119T both phenotypically and genotypically from the only species with validly published name with greater than 97 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity. The isolate has an accelerated doubling time when grown in aerated broth at pH 5.9 relative to that at pH 7.1. Therefore, it is proposed that strain CBD 119T represents a novel species, Bacillus acidiceler sp. nov. The type strain is strain CBD 119T (=NRRL B-41736T=DSM 18954T).

The analysis of three water samples from two cooling towers and one river allowed us to isolate three strains of a novel species of the class Alphaproteobacteria which is phylogenetically related to uncultured alphaproteobacteria. Based upon 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis and phenotypic characterization, we propose to name this novel species Reyranella massiliensis gen. nov., sp. nov., type strain 521T ( = CSUR P115T  = DSM 23428T). The most closely related cultivable micro-organism to this novel bacterium is a member of the genus Magnetospirillum.

Two isolates of mulberry-pathogenic bacteria isolated from diseased mulberry roots were investigated in a polyphasic taxonomic study. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis combined with rpoB gene sequence analysis allocated strains R18-2T and R3-3 to the genus Enterobacter, with Enterobacter asburiae, E. amnigenus, E. cancerogenus, E. cloacae subsp. cloacae, E. cloacae subsp. dissolvens and E. nimipressuralis as their closest relatives. Cells of the isolates were Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic rods, 0.3–1.0 µm wide and 0.8–2.0 µm long, with peritrichous flagella, showing a DNA G+C content of 55.1±0.5 mol%. Calculation of a similarity index based on phenotypic features and fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) analysis suggested that these isolates are members of E. cancerogenus or E. asburiae or a closely related species. Biochemical data revealed that the isolates could be differentiated from their nearest neighbours by the presence of lysine decarboxylase activity and their ability to utilize d-arabitol. DNA–DNA relatedness also distinguished the two isolates from phylogenetically closely related Enterobacter strains. Based on these data, it is proposed that the isolates represent a novel species of the genus Enterobacter, named Enterobacter mori sp. nov. The type strain is R18-2T ( = CGMCC 1.10322T  = LMG 25706T).

ABSTRACT Microbial diversity of septic tank effluent (STE) and the biomat that is formed as a result of STE infiltration on soil were characterized by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. Results indicate that microbial communities are different within control soil, STE, and the biomat and that microbes found in STE are not found in the biomat. The development of a stable soil biomat appears to provide the best on-site water treatment or protection for subsequent groundwater interactions of STE.

A novel actinomycete, strain N3-7T, was isolated from a natural cave in Jeju, Republic of Korea, using a dilution method and was subjected to characterization using polyphasic taxonomy. A 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that the organism belonged to the phylogenetic cluster of the genus Actinocorallia and was most closely related to Actinocorallia glomerata and Actinocorallia longicatena (97.6 and 97.5 % similarity, respectively). The main chemotaxonomic properties of strain N3-7T, such as the principal amino acid of the peptidoglycan, the predominant menaquinone and the polar lipid profile, supported classification in the genus Actinocorallia. The organism was readily differentiated from Actinocorallia species with validly published names on the basis of a broad range of phenotypic properties. Thus the isolate represents a novel species of the genus Actinocorallia, for which the name Actinocorallia cavernae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is strain N3-7T (=JCM 13278T=NRRL B-24429T).

An ivory-coloured bacterium, designated strain 5YN7-3T, was isolated from a wetland, Yongneup, Korea. Cells of the strain were aerobic, Gram-stain-negative, non-motile and short rods. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis demonstrated that strain 5YN7-3T belongs to the order Rhizobiales of the class Alphaproteobacteria and is closely related to Kaistia soli 5YN9-8T (97.8 %), Kaistia granuli Ko04T (97.6 %) and Kaistia adipata Chj404T (97.4 %). Strain 5YN7-3T showed DNA–DNA hybridization values of 28, 22 and 35 % with K. granuli Ko04T, K. soli 5YN9-8T and K. adipata Chj404T, respectively. The major fatty acids were C18 : 1 ω7c (51.2 %), C19 : 0 cyclo ω8c (25.0 %), C18 : 0 (12.9 %) and C16 : 0 (10.8 %) (>10 % of total fatty acids). Ubiquinone-10 was the major isoprenoid quinone and the DNA G+C content was 66.5 mol%. The phenotypic characteristics in combination with 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis and DNA–DNA hybridization data clearly define strain 5YN7-3T as a novel species of the genus Kaistia, for which the name Kaistia terrae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 5YN7-3T (=KACC 12910T =DSM 21341T).
