Bacterium Strain

A novel, aerobic nitrogen-fixing methylotrophic bacterium, strain 29kT, was enriched and isolated from sludge generated during wastewater treatment at a paper mill in Baikal, Russian Federation. Cells were Gram-stain-variable. The cell wall was of the negative Gram-type. Cells were curved oval rod-shaped, 0.5–0.7×1.7–3.4 µm and formed yellow-coloured colonies. Cells tended to be pleomorphic if grown on media containing succinate or coccoid if grown in the presence of methyl alcohol as the sole carbon source. Cells were non-motile, non-spore-forming and contained retractile (polyphosphate) and lipid (poly-β-hydroxybutyrate) bodies. The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone Q-10 and the predominant cellular fatty acids were C18:1 ω7, C19:0 cyclo and C16:0. The genomic DNA G+C content was 67.95 mol%. Strain 29kT was able to grow at 4–37 °C (optimum, 30 °C), at pH 6.0–8.5 (optimum, pH 6.5–7.0) and at salinities of 0–0.5% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0% NaCl). Catalase and oxidase were positive. Strain 29kT could grow chemolithoautotrophically in mineral media under an atmosphere of H2, O2 and CO2 as well as chemoorganoheterotrophically on methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, n-butanol and various organic acids. The carbohydrate utilization spectrum is limited by glucose and raffinose. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the newly isolated strain was a member of the genus Xanthobacter with Xanthobacter autotrophicus 7cT (99.9% similarity) and Xanthobacter viscosus 7dT (99.4 % similarity) as closest relatives among species with validly published names. The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values of 92.7 and 44.9%, respectively, of the 29kT to the genome of the most closely related species, X. autotrophicus 7cT, were below the species cutoffs. Based on genotypic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, it is proposed that the isolate represents a novel species, Xanthobacter oligotrophicus sp. nov. The type strain is 29kT (=KCTC 72777T=VKM B-3453T).

Emended Description

A Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, rod- or oval-shaped, motile, non-spore-forming bacterium, designated strain CC-AMHB-3T, was isolated from coastal surface seawater off Hualien, Taiwan. The novel strain showed high pairwise 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities to Ruegeria mobilis NBRC 101030T (96.5 %), Ruegeria scottomollicae LMG 24367T (96.4 %), Phaeobacter aquaemixtae SSK6-1T (96.2 %), Phaeobacter daeponensis TF-218T (96.2 %), Cribrihabitans marinus CZ-AM5T (96.1 %) and other species of the family Rhodobacteraceae (≤95.9 %). However, strain CC-AMHB-3T formed a distinct phyletic lineage associated with C. marinus CZ-AM5T during phylogenetic analyses. The polar lipid profile of strain CC-AMHB-3T included major amounts of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylcholine; moderate amounts of phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminolipid, an unidentified phospholipid and an unidentified lipid; and trace amounts of an unidentified lipid and an unidentified phospholipid, which was qualitatively almost in line with that of C. marinus CZ-AM5T but remarkably distinct as compared with the type species of the genera Ruegeria ( Ruegeria atlantica JCM 21234T) and Phaeobacter ( Phaeobacter gallaeciensis JCM 21319T). In line with the fatty acid profile of C. marinus CZ-AM5T, the major (>5 % of total) fatty acids of strain CC-AMHB-3T were C18 : 1ω7c and/or C18 : 1ω6c (summed feature 8), 11-methyl C18 : 1ω7c and C16 : 0. The DNA G+C content was 66.7 mol%. Ubiquinone-10 (Q-10) was the sole respiratory quinone. Thus, based on the results of the polyphasic study presented here, strain CC-AMHB-3T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Cribrihabitans , for which the name Cribrihabitans neustonicus sp. nov. is proposed; the type strain is CC-AMHB-3T ( = JCM 19537T = BCRC 80695T). In addition, an emended description of the genus Cribrihabitans is also proposed.
