A Gram-stain-negative, mucus-forming, motile by gliding,
non-spore-forming and short rod-shaped bacterial strain
designated R1-15T was isolated from soil and its taxonomic
position was evaluated using a polyphasic approach. Strain
R1-15T grew at 15–37°C (optimum, 30°C), at pH 6–7 (optimum,
pH 6) and in the presence of 0–1% (w/v) NaCl (optimum,
0%) on 0.1X TSA. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence
similarity, the novel strain was assigned to the family
Chitinophagaceae of the phylum Bacteroidetes, and its closest
related taxa were species of the genera Taibaiella (88.76–
90.02% sequence similarity), Lacibacter (89.24–90.00%), Chitinophaga
(88.61–89.76%), and Terrimonas (89.04%). Flexirubin-
type pigments were produced. The only isoprenoid
quinone was MK-7, and the major polar lipid was phosphatidylethanolamine.
Based on whole genome comparisons
between the strain R1-15T and the type strains of relatives,
the orthologous average nucleotide identity values were 66.9–
67.0%. The DNA G+C content of strain R1-15T was 43.8
mol%. The combination of phylogenetic, chemotaxonomic
and phenotypic data clearly supported separation of strain
R1-15T from related taxa, and thus the name Mucibacter
soli gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is R1-15T
(= KCTC 62274T = JCM 31190T).
