Abstract |
A Gram-stain negative, short rod-shaped aerobic bacterium with flagella, designated strain Y32(T), was isolated from coastal seawater in Xiamen, Fujian Province of China. 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons showed that strain Y32(T) is a member of the family Oceanospirillaceae, forming a distinct lineage with species of the genus Litoribacillus. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities between strain Y32(T) and other strains were all less than 94.0 %. Strain Y32(T) was found to grow optimally at 28 °C, at pH 7.0-8.0 and in the presence of 4-5 % (w/v) NaCl. The major fatty acids were identified as Summed Feature 3 (comprising C16:1 ω7c and/or C16:1 ω6c, 49.4 %), C16:0 (17.7 %), C14:0 (6.9 %) and C18:1 ω9c (5.4 %). The major respiratory quinone was identified as ubiquinone-8 (Q-8). The major polar lipids were identified as diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol. The DNA G+C content of strain Y32(T) was determined to be 55.6 mol%. According to its morphology, physiology, fatty acid composition, polar lipids composition and 16S rRNA gene sequence data, strain Y32(T) represents a novel species of a new genus in the family Oceanospirillaceae, for which the name Litoribrevibacter albus gen. nov. sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Litoribrevibacter albus is Y32(T) (=MCCC 1F01211(T)=NBRC 110071(T)).
