“…In contrast, all strains are able to grow in the presence of D-arabinose, D-mannitol, D-trehalose, and D-xylose. These biochemical characteristics are sufficient to distinguish Prodigiosinella strains from Dickeya, Musicola , and Pectobacterium whose members are unable to assimilate D-trehalose, D-mannitol, and D-arabinose, respectively (Table 1) [8, 29, 30]. Prodigiosinella strains also differ by several characters from the close genus Lonsdalea , such as for the assimilation of D-arabinose and xylose (Table 1).…”

The Pectobacteriaceae family comprises plant pathogens able to provoke diverse diseases, including plant maceration due to the production of pectinases disrupting the plant cell wall. To better understand their natural diversity, a survey of pectinolytic bacteria was performed in lakes of the French region La Camargue near the Mediterranean Sea. Sixteen atypical pectinolytic isolates were obtained from brackish water of three lakes. The genome of six isolates was sequenced; their size is around 4.8 to 5.0 Mb, including a plasmid of 59 to 61 kb; their G+C values range from 49.1 to 49.3 mol%. Phylogenetic analyses indicated that the novel strains formed a new clade of Pectobacteriaceae, separate from previously described genera of this family. These analyses suggested also that Acerihabitans does not belong to Pectobacteriaceae and should be reclassified in the Bruguierivoracaceae family, while Symbiopectobacterium could be a true Pectobacteriaceae member. Based on phenotypic, genomic and phylogenetic characteristics, we propose the creation of a new genus with the name Prodigiosinella gen. nov. Both the phenotypic and phylogenetic analyses separated the strains into two distinct subgroups. However, the DNA DNA relatedness values revealed a close relationship between the two groups, supporting their appurtenance to the same species. Thus, it is proposed to classify them as two subspecies of Prodigiosinella aquatilis sp. nov., for which we propose the name Prodigiosinella aquatilis subsp. aquatilis ssp. nov. (LS101T = CFBP 8826T = LMG 32072T) and Prodigiosinella aquatilis subsp. natabilis ssp. nov. (CE70T = CFBP 9054T = LMG 32867T).
