| Abstract |
A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped and motile bacterium, named LAMW06T, was isolated from greenhouse soil in Beijing, China. In the 16S rRNA gene sequence comparison, strain LAMW06T had the highest similarity with Pseudomonas cuatrocienegasensis 1NT. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA and three housekeeping gene sequences (gyrB, rpoB and rpoD) indicated that strain represented a member of the genus Pseudomonas. The genome sequence size of the isolate was 5.5 Mb, with a DNA G + C content of 63.5 mol%. The average nucleotide identity and DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain LAMW06T and closely related members of Pseudomonas borbori R-20821T, Pseudomonas taeanensis MS-3T and P. cuatrocienegasensis 1NT were 90.9%, 82.4%, 81.5% and 43.0%, 25.9%, 24.6% respectively. The major fatty acids contained summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω6c and/or C16:1 ω7c), C18:1 ω7c and C16:0. The primary respiratory quinone was ubiquinone-9. The main polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, six aminophospholipids, six phospholipids, one aminolipid and one glycolipid. According to the genotypic, phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic data, strain LAMW06T represents a novel species within the genus Pseudomonas, for which the name Pseudomonas tumuqii sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is LAMW06T (= GDMCC 1.2003T = KCTC 72829T).
