A novel actinobacterium, YIM 132084 T , was isolated from Lepraria sp. lichen collected from Yunnan province, south-west PR China and identified by a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The strain was Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, catalase-positive, oxidase-negative, non-motile and coccus-shaped. Colonies were round, convex, smooth and light orange yellow in color. It grew at 10-40 °C (optimum 28 °C), at pH 6.0-11.0 (optimum pH 7.0) and in the presence of 0-4% NaCl (optimum 0%). Strain YIM 132084 T comprised diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylinositol as the major polar lipids, MK-8(H 4 ) as the predominant menaquinone, and anteiso-C 15:0 , anteiso-C 17:0 , iso-C 15:0 and iso-C 16:0 as major fatty acids. Strain YIM 132084 T had meso-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan, and mannose, ribose, glucose and rhamnose as whole-cell sugars. The 16S rRNA gene sequence showed high level of similarity with Nakamurella flavida KCTC 19127 T (97.7%) and Nakamurella flava CGMCC 4.7524 T (97.7%). The G + C content of the genomic DNA was 72.4 mol%. Based on draft genome sequences, strain YIM 132084 T showed an average nucleotide identity value of 76.1% and 74.9%, a digital DNA-DNA hybridization value of 20.9% and 20.6% with the reference strains Nakamurella flavida and Nakamurella flava, respectively. The results of the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic analyses showed that strain YIM 132084 T represents a novel species of the genus Nakamurella, for which the name Nakamurella leprariae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YIM 132084 T (= CGMCC 4.7667 T = NBRC 114280 T = KCTC 49367 T ).
A novel Gram-stain positive, facultatively anaerobic, motile, irregularly rod-shaped bacterium, designated GY 10621T, was isolated from rhizosphere soil of Spartina alterniflora in Beihai City, Guangxi Province, PR China, and characterized using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. GY 10621T was positive for catalase and oxidase. Growth occurred at 4–42 °C (optimum 30–37 °C), at pH 5.0–9.0 (optimum pH 7.0) and in the presence of 0–5% NaCl (w/v) (optimum 1–3%). The main menaquinones were MK-9 (H4) (92.2 %) and MK-10 (7.8 %). The major cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0 and C14 : 0. The peptidoglycan was the type A4α (l-Lys-Ser-d-Glu). The polar lipids included four phosphoglycolipids, four glycolipids, an unidentified lipid and six unidentified phospholipids. The DNA G+C content of the type strain was 71.7 mol%. On the basis of the results of 16S rRNA gene analysis, the type strain of a species with a validly published name with the highest similarity to GY 10621T was Flavimobilis soli KCTC 13155T (97.16 %), followed by Sanguibacter suarezii NBRC 16159T (96.39 %). The calculated results indicated that compared with GY 10621T, the average nucleotide identity (ANI) values of three strains closely related to GY 10621T (the two aforementioned type strains and ‘ S. massiliensis ’ Marseille-P3815) were 74.18–94.97 %, and the digital DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH) values were 20.3–60.6 %. The results of 16S rRNA-based and genome-based phylogenetic tree analysis indicated that GY 10621T should be assigned to the genus Flavimobilis . On the basis of evidence from polyphasic studies, GY 10621T should be designated as representing a novel species of the genus Flavimobilis , for which the name Flavimobilis rhizosphaerae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is GY 10621T (=CGMCC 1.17411T=KCTC 49515T).
In this study, we isolated a novel Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, motile, rod-shaped bacterium, named GX 13764T, from the rhizosphere soil of a decayed mangrove plant Kandelia candel collected from Beihai, Guangxi, PR China, and characterized using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The strain exhibited yellow-orange, round, convex, shiny, smooth, opaque and 2–3 mm diameter colonies on marine agar 2216 media after 3 days of incubation at 30 °C and was capable of growth at 4–45 °C (optimum, 30 °C), pH 5.0–9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0) and 0–4 % NaCl (w/v; optimum, 2 %). The strain was positive for catalase and negative for the oxidase. The main cellular fatty acid was anteiso-C15:0, iso-C15:0, iso-C16:0 and iso-C14:0. The cell-wall peptidoglycan comprised meso-diaminopimelic acid and the main menaquinone was MK-7. The polar lipids included one diphosphatidylglycerol, one phosphatidylglycerol, two glycolipids, two unidentified phospholipids and three unidentified lipids. Based on 16S rRNA gene analysis, GX 13764T presented the highest sequence similarity to Metabacillus mangrovi KCTC 33872T (97.04 %). The DNA G+C content of the type strain was 44.2 mol%. The average nucleotide identity values between GX 13764T and M. mangrovi KCTC 33872T, Metabacillus idriensis DSM 19097T and Metabacillus indicus LMG 22858T were 69.39, 68.87 and 68.95 %, respectively, with digital DNA–DNA hybridization values of 19.9, 19.5 and 19.5 %, respectively. Based on the polyphasic data, strain GX 13764T should be nominated as a novel species of the genus Metabacillus , for which the name Metabacillus kandeliae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is GX 13764T (=MCCC 1K06654T=KCTC 43366T).
