“…Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analyses showed that it was phylogenetically affiliated with species of the genus Massilia. Strain 333-1-0411 T showed 95.4-97.2 % sequence similarities with respect to type strains of recognized species of the genus Massilia, the highest similarity values being found with the sequence of Massilia flava Y9 T (97.2 % sequence similarity; Wang et al, 2012) and Massilia albidiflava 45 T (97.0 % sequence similarity; Zhang et al, 2006); The next closest relatives showed lower than 97 % similarity values; strain 333-1-0411 T shared 96.9 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with Massilia plicata 76 T (Zhang et al, 2006), 96.8 % sequence similarity with Massilia aurea AP13 T (Gallego et al, 2006) and Massilia niabensis 5420S-26 T (Weon et al, 2009), 96.7 % sequence similarity with Massilia timonae UR/ MT95 T (La Scola et al, 1998) and Massilia niastensis DSM 21313 T (Weon et al, 2009), and 95.4 % sequence similarity with Massilia alkalitolerans YIM 31775 T (Xu et al, 2005;Kämpfer et al, 2011). Strain 333-1-0411 T exhibited relatively low sequence similarities (,95.7 %) with respect to members of other genera of the family Oxalobacteraceae, except for Duganella violaceinigra YIM 31327 T (96.8 %), Janthinobacterium lividum DSM 1522 T (96.7 %), Duganella zoogloeoides IAM 12670 T (96.6 %) and Janthinobacterium agaricidamnosum W1r3 T (96.6 %).…”

A Gram-staining-negative, rod-shaped and non-spore-forming bacterium, designated strain 333-1-0411 T , was isolated from a soil sample collected from Namucuo, Tibet Autonomous Region, China and characterized in a taxonomic study using a polyphasic approach. The major fatty acid components of strain 333-1-0411 T were summed feature 3 (C 16 : 1 v7c and/or C 16 : 1 v6c) and C 16 : 0 ; its major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylglycerol. Q-8 was the dominant ubiquinone, and the G+C content of the genomic DNA was 66.7 mol%. A phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain 333-1-0411 T fell within the evolutionary radiation encompassed by the genus Massilia. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities between strain 333-1-0411 T and recognized species of the genus Massilia ranged from 95.4 % to 97.2 %, and the most closely related strains were Massilia flava Y9 T (97.2 %) and Massilia albidiflava 45 T (97.0 %). However, the DNA-DNA relatedness values between strain 333-1-0411 T and M. flava Y9 T and M. albidiflava 45 T were 20.2 % and 27.2 %, respectively. Based on the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic properties, strain 333-1-0411 T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Massilia, for which the name Massilia namucuonensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 333-1-0411 T (5CGMCC 1.11014 T 5DSM 25159 T ).The genus Massilia was first described by La Scola et al.(1998) based on a single isolate from the blood of 25-yearold patient who was immunocompromised with cerebellar lesions. Since then, other strains representing species of the genus Massilia have been isolated from air (Weon et al., 2008, 2009, 2010), water (Gallego et al., 2006 and soil samples (Zhang et al., 2006;Zul et al., 2008;Wang et al., 2012). At the time of writing, 18 species have been described and their descriptions published. The genus Massilia was described to comprise aerobic, Gramnegative, motile, non-spore-forming rods. Summed feature 3 (comprising C 16 : 1 v7c and/or iso-C 15 : 0 2-OH) and C 16 : 0 are the major fatty acids, Q-8 is the predominant isoprenoid quinone and the DNA G+C content is in the range of 63.3-68.9 mol% (Weon et al., 2009).Soil samples were collected from sites located 25 m from the Namucuo Saltwater Lake (30 u 469 270 N, 90 u 529 000 E and 4598 m in altitude) on 15 September 2010 in Tibet Autonomous Region, China. For isolation, the soil sample (1 g) was suspended in distilled water (50 ml) and spread on plates of R2A medium after serial dilution on 20 September 2010. The R2A medium (Niuniu) contained the following (l 21 ): yeast extract 0.5 g, proteose peptone 0.5 g, casein hydrolysate 0.5 g, glucose 0.5 g, starch 0.5 g, sodium pyruvate 0.3 g, dipotassium hydrogen phosphate 0.3 g, magnesium sulphate anhydrous 0.024 g, agar 15.0 g. The pH was adjusted to 7.2±0.2. The plates were incubated at 28 u C for 2-3 days. Single colonies from the plates were purified by transferring them onto new plates of the same medium. The strain, ...

“…In addition, species of the genera Massilia and Naxibacter are often grouped together on the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons and are found intermixed depending on the mode of sequence comparison (Kämpfer et al, 2008;Weon et al, 2009Weon et al, , 2010. At the time of writing, the genus Naxibacter contains four species with validly published names: N. alkalitolerans (Xu et al, 2005), N. varians and N. haematophilus (Kämpfer et al, 2008) and N. suwonensis (Weon et al, 2010).…”

A Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming bacterium originating from a human clinical specimen was studied for its taxonomic position. 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity studies clearly allocated this strain (CCUG 58010T) to the class Betaproteobacteria, closely related to members of the genera Massilia and Naxibacter. Naxibacter varians was shown to be the most closely related species on the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (97.5 %), followed by Massilia niastensis (96.8 %) and Massilia aerilata (96.4 %). Similarities to all other species of the genera Naxibacter and Massilia were in the range 93.9–96.2 %. Chemotaxonomic data (major ubiquinone: Q-8; major polar lipids: phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol; and major fatty acids: summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH), C16 : 0, C18 : 1ω7c and C12 : 0, with C10 : 0 3-OH as hydroxylated fatty acid) supported the affiliation of the isolate to these genera, which share these chemotaxonomic traits. DNA–DNA hybridization of strain CCUG 58010T with the type strain of N. varians CCUG 35299T resulted in a relatedness value of 39.2 % (reciprocal, 50 %) and physiological and biochemical tests also allowed phenotypic differentiation of the isolate from the most closely related species. There is currently no justification for a division of the genera Massilia and Naxibacter and for this reason a proposal is made to transfer all species of the genus Naxibacter to the genus Massilia, as Massilia alkalitolerans comb. nov., Massilia varians comb. nov., Massilia haematophila comb. nov. and Massilia suwonensis comb. nov. Strain CCUG 58010T represents a novel species, for which the name Massilia consociata sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain CCUG 58010T ( = CCM 7792T).

PHAs production by strains belonging to Massilia genus from starch

et al. 2011

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

In this work, for the first time, the ability of non‐pathogenic bacterial members of the recently discovered genus Massilia to accumulate polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) using glucose or starch as C and energy sources, has been reported. The highest PHAs yields were obtained when glucose was substituted by starch in the culture medium, being Massilia lutea the best producer (1.25 g/L). NMR analyses demonstrated that the PHAs obtained were PHB in spite of the C source used. These results become Massilia strains attractive candidates for use in the production of biopolymers from renewable carbon sources, but further research is needed to understand the processes involved in PHA synthesis and accumulation.
