Abstract
-
Two Gram-stain-positive, catalase-negative, non-spore-forming,
cocci-shaped strains (dk850T and JY899) were isolated
from the feces of Equus kiang in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau of
China. 16S rRNA gene sequence-based phylogenetic analyses
showed that strains dk850T and JY899 belong to the genus
Flaviflexus, closest to F. salsibiostraticola KCTC 33148T, F. ciconiae
KCTC 49253T and F. huanghaiensis H5T. The DNA
G + C content of strain dk850T was 62.9%. The digital DNADNA
hybridization values of strain dk850T with the closely related
species were below the 70% threshold for species demarcation.
The two strains grew best at 28°C on brain heart infusion
(BHI) agar with 5% sheep blood. All strains had C18:1ω9c
and C16:0 as the major cellular fatty acids. MK-9(H4) was the
major menaquinone in strain dk850T. The major polar lipids
included diphosphatidylglycerol and an unidentified phospholipid.
Strains dk850T and JY899 were identified as carrying
a class 1 integron containing the aminoglycoside resistance
gene aadA11, both strains were resistant to spectinomycin
and streptomycin. Based on several lines of evidence
from phenotypic and phylogenetic analyses, strains dk850T
and JY899 represent a novel species of the genus Flaviflexus,
for which the name Flaviflexus equikiangi sp. nov. is proposed.
The type strain is dk850T (= CGMCC 1.16593T = JCM 33598T).

Abstract
-
A Gram-stain-negative, non-spore-forming, facultative, rodshaped
bacterium (designated LA-28T) was isolated from a
sludge sample from a wastewater treatment plant in Hanam
city, Republic of Korea. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequencing,
strain LA-28T clustered with species of the genus
Mesorhizobium and appeared closely related to M. jarvisii
LMG 28313T (96.8%), M. waimense ICMP 19557T (96.7%),
and M. huakuii LMG 14107T (96.7%). Growth occurs at 18–
40°C on R2A medium in the presence of 1–4% NaCl (w/v)
and at pH 6–8. The DNA G+C content was 61.2 mol%, and
the predominant quinone was ubiquinone-10 (Q-10). The
major cellular fatty acids (> 5%) were C16:0, C19:0 ω8c cyclo,
C18:1 ω7c 11-methyl, and C18:1 ω7c and/or C18:1 ω6c (summed
feature 8). Major polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol (PG),
phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidyl-N-methylethanolamine
(PME), and phosphatidylcholine (PC). Physiological
and biochemical characteristics indicated that strain
LA-28T represents a novel species of the genus Mesorhizobium,
for which the name Mesorhizobium denitrificans sp.
nov. is proposed. The type strain is LA-28T (= KACC 19675T
= LMG 30806T).

Abstract
-
A Gram-positive, aerobic, non-motile, pale-yellow, and rodshaped
bacterium, designated as Gsoil 188T, was isolated from
the soil of a ginseng field in Pocheon, South Korea. A phylogenetic
analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence comparison
revealed that the strain formed a distinct lineage within
the genus Brevibacterium and was most closely related to B.
epidermidis NBRC 14811T (98.4%), B. sediminis FXJ8.269T
(98.2%), B. avium NCFB 3055T (98.1%), and B. oceani BBH7T
(98.1%), while it shared less than 98.1% identity with the other
species of this genus. The DNA G + C content was 68.1 mol%.
The predominant quinone was MK-8(H2). The major fatty
acids were anteiso-C15:0 and anteiso-C17:0. The cell wall peptidoglycan
of strain Gsoil 188T contained meso-diaminopimelic
acid. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol,
and an unidentified aminolipid. The
physiological and biochemical characteristics, low DNA-DNA
relatedness values, and taxonomic analysis allowed the differentiation
of strain Gsoil 188T from the other recognized
species of the genus Brevibacterium. Therefore, strain Gsoil
188T represents a novel species of the genus Brevibacterium,
for which the name Brevibacterium anseongense sp. nov. is
proposed, with the type strain Gsoil 188T (= KACC 19439T
= LMG 30331T).

Abstract
-
A Gram-positive, strictly aerobic, nonmotile, yellowish, coccus-
rod-shaped bacterium (designated Gsoil 653T) isolated
from ginseng cultivating soil was characterized using a polyphasic
approach to clarify its taxonomic position. The strain
Gsoil 653T exhibited optimal growth at pH 7.0 on R2A agar
medium at 30°C. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA
gene sequence similarities, indicated that Gsoil 653T belongs
to the genus Terrabacter of the family Humibacillus, and was
closely related to Terrabacter tumescens DSM 20308T (98.9%),
Terrabacter carboxydivorans PY2T (98.9%), Terrabacter terrigena
ON10T (98.8%), Terrabacter terrae PPLBT (98.6%), and
Terrabacter lapilli LR-26T (98.6%). The DNA G + C content
was 70.5 mol%. The major quinone was MK-8(H4). The primary
polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol,
phosphatidyl-ethanolamine. The predominant
fatty acids were iso-C15:0, iso-C16:0, iso-C14:0, and anteiso-C15:0,
as in the case of genus Terrabacter, thereby supporting the
categorization of strain Gsoil 653T. However, the DNA-DNA
relatedness between Gsoil 653T and closely related strains of
Terrabacter species was low at less than 31%. Moreover, strain
Gsoil 653T could be both genotypically and phenotypically distinguished
from the recognized species of the genus Terrabacter.
This isolate, therefore, represents a novel species, for
which the name Terrabacter ginsengisoli sp. nov. is proposed
with the type strain Gsoil 653T (= KACC 19444T = LMG
30325T).

Abstract
-
A Gram-reaction negative, strictly aerobic, non-motile, orange
colored, and rod-shaped bacterium (designated BS26T) isolated
from compost, was characterized by a polyphasic approach
to clarify its taxonomic position. Strain BS26T was
observed to grow optimally at 25–30°C and at pH 7.0 on
R2A and nutrient media. Strain BS26T showed β-glucosidase
activity that was responsible for its ability to transform ginsenoside
Rb1 (one of the active components of ginseng) to
ginsenoside compound-K (C-K). Phylogenetic analysis based
on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain BS26T belongs
to the genus Niabella of family Chitinophagaceae and
was most closely related to Niabella soli DSM 19437T (94.5%
similarity), N. yanshanensis CCBAU 05354T (94.3%), and
N. aurantiaca DSM 17617T (93.8%). The G+C content of genomic
DNA was 47.3 mol%. Chemotaxonomic data [predominant
isoprenoid quinone-MK-7, major fatty acids–iso-C15:0,
iso-C15:1 G, iso-C17:0 3-OH, and summed feature 3 (comprising
C16:1 ω7c and/or C16:1 ω6c)] supported the affiliation of
strain BS26T to the genus Niabella. However, strain BS26T
could be differentiated genotypically and phenotypically
from the recognized species of the genus Niabella. The novel
isolate therefore represents a novel species, for which the
name Niabella ginsenosidivorans sp. nov. is proposed, with
the type strain BS26T (=KACC 16620T =JCM 18199T).

Abstract
-
An alkaliphilic, moderately halophilic, bacterium, designated strain X10-1T, was isolated from saline-alkaline soil in Daqing, Heilongjiang Province, China. Strain X10-1T was determined to be a Gram-positive aerobe with rod-shaped cells. The isolate was catalase-positive, oxidase-negative, non-motile, and capable of growth at salinities of 0–16% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 3%). The pH range for growth was 7.5–11.0 (optimum, pH 10.0). The genomic DNA G+C content was 47.7 mol%. Its major isoprenoid quinone was MK-7 and its cellular fatty acid profile mainly consisted of anteiso-C15:0, anteiso-C17:0, iso-C15:0, C16:0, and iso-C16:0. The peptidoglycan contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid. The predominant polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylglycerol. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that X10-1T is a member of the genus Bacillus, being most closely related to B. saliphilus DSM15402T (97.8% similarity) and B. agaradhaerens DSM 8721T (96.2%). DNA-DNA relatedness to the type strains of these species was less than 40%. On the basis of the phylogenetic, physiological, and biochemical data, strain X10-1T represents a novel species of the genus Bacillus, for which the name Bacillus daqingensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is X10-1T (=NBRC 109404T =CGMCC 1.12295T).

Abstract
-
A Gram-staining-negative, rod-shaped and red-pigmented bacterial strain, HMD3125T, was isolated from a solar saltern in Jeungdo, Republic of Korea. A phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain HMD3125T formed a lineage within the genus Pontibacter and was similar to Pontibacter salisaro (96.1%) and P. korlensis (95.3%). The major fatty acids of strain HMD3125T were summed feature 4 (comprising iso-C17:1 I and/or anteiso-C17:1 B; 30.4%), iso-C15:0 (20.4%) and iso-C17:0 3OH (17.2%). The polar lipid profile of HMD3125T consisted of the phosphatidylethanolamine, four unidentified polar lipids, unidentified phospholipid, unidentified aminolipid and unidentified aminophospholipid. Strain HMD3125T contained MK-7 as the predominant menaquinone and sym-homospermidine as the major polyamine. The DNA G+C content of strain HMD3125T was 45.6 mol%. Strain HMD3125T assigned as a novel species in the genus Pontibacter, for which the name Pontibacter jeungdoensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HMD3125T (=KCTC 23156T =CECT 7710T).

Abstract
-
A bacterial strain, designated JS5-2T, was isolated from soil collected from Jeju Island, Republic of Korea. The cells of the strain were Gram-negative, nonspore forming, catalaseand oxidase-positive, aerobic, nonmotile and rod-shaped. Strain JS5-2T exhibited 96.2–97.2, 95.1–96.3, and 95.4–95.8% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities to the genera Herbaspirillum, Oxalicibacterium, and Herminiimonas, respectively. The highest sequence similarities were with Herbaspirillum autotrophicum IAM 14942T (97.2%) and Herbaspirillum frisingense GSF30T (97.1%). The major fatty acids of strain JS5-2T were C16:0 (35.0%), C17:0 cyclo (19.9%), C18:1 ω7c (11.4%), and summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω7c/C15:0 iso 2-OH) (15.2%),
and the major polar lipids of strain JS5-2T were diphosphatidylglycerol and an unknown aminophospholipid. The strain contained Q-8 as the predominant ubiquinone. DNA-DNA relatedness values between strain JS5-2T and H. autotrophicum IAM 14942T, and H. frisingense GSF30T were 32 and 35%, respectively. The DNA G+C content of strain JS5-2T was 59.0 mol%. On the basis of phenotypic, genotypic, and physiological evidence, strain JS5-2T represents a novel species of a new genus, for which the name Paraherbaspirillum soli gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain JS5-2T (=KACC 12633T =NBRC 106496T) is proposed.

Abstract
-
A bacterial isolate designated GR24-2T was isolated from Korean soil used for cultivating ginseng (Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer). The strain was aerobic, Gram-negative, motile, and rod-shaped. It grew optimally at 28–30°C, pH 7.0, and in a range of 0–1% NaCl. Phylogenetically, the strain clustered with members of the genus Rhodanobacter. The strain exhibited the highest sequence similarities (>98%) with R. panaciterrae LnR5-47T (98.4%), R. soli DCY45T (98.2%), and
R. ginsengisoli GR17-7T (98.0%). However, it also showed high sequence similarities (>97%) with some other Rhodanobacter and Dyella species. The strain contained Q-8 as the predominant respiratory quinone. The major fatty acids
(greater than 10% of the total fatty acids) were iso-C17:1 ω9c (24.5%), iso-C16:0 (22.8%), anteiso-C15:0 (10.5%), and iso-C15:0 (10.1%). Its major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, and
an unknown aminophospholipid. The DNA G+C content of strain GR24-2T was 65.6 mol%. The strain showed less than 70% DNA relatedness values between the closely related Rhodanobacter and Dyella species. The phylogeny, phenotype,
DNA–DNA hybridization, and chemotaxonomic data generated in this study reveal that the isolate is a novel species of the genus Rhodanobacter. The name proposed for this strain is Rhodanobacter umsongensis sp. nov. (type strain GR24-2T =KACC 12917T =DSM 21300T).

Abstract
-
A novel isolate, designated 6408J-67T, was isolated from an air sample collected from Jeju Island, Republic of Korea. Its phenotypic, genotypic, and chemotaxonomic properties were compared with those of members of the family Microbacteriaceae.
The Gram-positive, aerobic, motile rod formed light yellow, smooth, circular and convex colonies. Optimal growth occurred at 30°C and pH 7.0. 16S rRNA gene sequence data showed that the isolate was a novel member of the family Microbacteriaceae, with the highest sequence similarity (97.4%) to Labedella gwakjiensis KSW2-17T and less (<97%) sequence similarity with other taxa. The major cellular fatty acids (>10% of the total) were anteiso-C15:0, iso-C14:0, and iso-C16:0. The strain also contained MK-13, MK-12, and MK-14 as the major menaquinones, as well as diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, and two unknown glycolipids. Its peptidoglycan structure was B1β with 2,4-diaminobutyric acid as a diamino acid. Mycolic acids were absent. The DNA G+C content was 68.3 mol%. Based on these phenotypic and genotypic findings, strain 6408J-67T represents a novel species of a new genus within the family Microbacteriaceae, for which the name Diaminobutyricimonas aerilata gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 6408J-67T (=KACC 15518T =NBRC 108726T).

Abstract
-
A white-coloured bacterium, SGM1-15T, was isolated from a paddy soil sample from Suwon, Republic of Korea. The cells were strictly aerobic, Gram-negative and curved rodshaped. A phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain SGM1-15T was closely related to Curvibacter delicatus LMG 4328T (97.6% similarity) and Caenimonas koreensis EMB320T (97.5% similarity). The major respiratory quinone system was Q-8 and the predominant cellular fatty acids were C16:0 (39.9%), summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω7c and/or iso-C15:0 2-OH; 24.3%) and C17:0 cyclo (22.7%). The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. The major polyamines were 2-hydroxypurescine, purescine and spermidine. The DNA G+C content was 68.7 mol%. On the basis of the phylogenetic, physiologicl and chemotaxonomic data, stain SGM1-15T represents a novel species of the genus Caenimonas, for which the name Caenimonas terrae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Caenimonas terrae is SGM1-15T (=KACC 13365T =NBRC 106341T).

Abstract
-
A novel, Gram-negative, bacterial strain KIS30-44T was identified from wet forest soil collected on the Korean island of Dokdo. Growth of the strain was observed at 15–30°C, pH 5−9, 0–3% NaCl, and 950 mM KNO3. KIS30-44T reduced nitrate to nitrogen gas. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that KIS30-44T was phylogenetically related to Burkholderia sacchari, Burkholderia mimosarum, and Burkholderia oxyphila (98.1%, 98.0%, and 98.0% sequence similarity, respectively). The genomic G+C content was 63.5 mol%. KIS30-44T exhibited less than 52% DNA-DNA relatedness with the type strains of 9 closely related Burkholderia species. The major isoprenoid quinone was Q-8. The polar lipid profile consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and two unknown aminolipids. The major fatty acids in KIS30-44T were C16:0, C18:1 ω7c and summed feature 3 (iso-C15:0 2-OH and C16:1 ω7c), and the strain contained half the amount of C17:0 cyclo found in the 9 closely related Burkholderia species. The results of these phenotypic, 16S rRNA gene sequence, DNA-DNA hybridization, and chemotaxonomic data indicate that KIS30-44T represents a novel species within the genus Burkholderia, for which the name Burkholderia denitrificans (Type strain KIS30-44T =KACC 12733T =DSM 24336T) is proposed.

A bacterial strain isolated from an air sample, strain 5317J-19T, was characterized. The isolate was an aerobic, motile, Gram-positive rod. The organism was able to grow between 4 and 35°C and between pH 6 and 9. The predominant fatty acids were anteiso-C15:0 and iso-C16:0. The major respiratory menaquinones were MK-12 and MK-11, and the minor ones were MK13, MK-10, and MK-9. Genomic DNA G+C content was 66 mol%. The diagnostic diamino acid of the peptidoglycan is presumably D-Orn. The peptidoglycan is supposed to be B2β type. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that this isolate belongs to the family Microbacteriaceae and had the highest sequence similarities with Salinibacterium xinjiangense 0543T (97.6%), Salinibacterium amurskyense KMM 3673T (97.2%), and Leifsonia bigeumensis MSL-27T (97.2%). Phylogenetic analysis and phenotypic characteristics support the proposal of a new genus and a novel species, with the name Homoserinimonas aerilata gen. nov., sp. nov. The type strain of Homoserinimonas aerilata is 5317J-19T (=KACC 15522T =NBRC 108729T).

Abstract
-
Two bacterial isolates from soil samples taken in Korea, strains YM2-7T and WD2-19T, were characterized using a polyphasic approach. The cells were strictly aerobic, Gram-positive, motile with peritrichous flagella, and rod-shaped. Both strains formed ellipsoidal bulging positioned subterminal spores. Phylogenetic analysis of their 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed a clear affiliation with the Firmicutes. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between YM2-7T and WD2-19T was 96.5%. Strains YM2-7T and WD2-19T showed 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities of 93.0-96.5% to type strains of recognized Cohnella species. The G+C contents of the DNA of strains YM2-7T and WD2-19T were 52.2 and 55.6 mol%, respectively. The major fatty acids of strains YM2-7T and WD2-19T were anteiso-C15:0 (44.4%), C16:0 (19.2%), and iso-C16:0 (16.8%) and anteiso-C15:0 (46.5%), iso-C16:0 (21.8%), and C16:0 (11.2%), respectively. Both strains contained menaquinone with seven isoprene units (MK-7) as the predominant quinone. Both strains had diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and lysophosphatidylglycerol as the major polar lipids. Comparative analysis of phenotypic and phylogenetic traits indicated that strains YM2-7T and WD2-19T represented two novel species of the genus Cohnella. The names Cohnella soli sp. nov. (type strain YM2-7T =KACC 13346T =NBRC 106486T), and Cohnella suwonensis sp. nov. (type strain WD2-19T =KACC 13347T =NBRC 106485T) are proposed for these organisms.

Abstract
-
A bacterial strain, designated GR24-5T, was isolated from soil cultivated with Korean ginseng. Cells were Gram-negative, strictly aerobic, catalase- and oxidase-positive, non-spore-forming motile rods. Based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence, strain GR24-5T could be assigned to the family Alcaligenaceae. Strain GR24-5T showed the highest sequence similarities with Parapusillimonas granuli Ch07T (97.1%), Pusillimonas noertemannii BN9T (96.9%), Pigmentiphaga kullae DSM 13608T (96.5%), and Castellaniella defragrans 54PinT (96.3%). Strain GR24-5T demonstrated a low DNA-DNA relatedness (23%) with P. granuli Ch07T. The major respiratory quinone is ubiquinone 8 (Q-8) and the major fatty acids are C16:0, C17:0 cyclo, and summed feature 1 (C14:03-OH/iso-C16:1 I/C12:0 alde). Putrescine, spermidine, and 2-hydroxyputrescine are the major polyamines. The major polar lipids are phosphatidylmethylethanolamine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, and an unknown aminophospholipid. Polar lipid patterns of strain GR24-5T were unique in having a large amount of phosphatidylmethylethanolamine. Based on phylogenetic analysis and physiological and biochemical characteristics, strain GR245T represents a novel genus and species, for which the name Paralcaligenes ureilyticus gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of P. aralcaligenes ureilyticus is GR24-5T (=KACC 13888T =DSM 24591T).
