Abstract
-
Paenibacillus polymyxa is a promising plant-growth-promoting
rhizobacterium that associates with a wide range of host
plants, including agronomically important ones. Inoculation
of wheat seedlings with P. polymyxa strains CCM 1465 and
92 was found to increase the mitotic index of the root cells
1.2- and 1.6-fold, respectively. Treatment of seedlings with
the exopolysaccharides (EPSs) of these strains increased the
mitotic index 1.9-fold (P. polymyxa CCM 1465) and 2.8-fold
(P. polymyxa 92). These increases indicate activation of cell
division in the root meristems. Analysis of the morphometric
variables of the seedlings showed that P. polymyxa CCM
1465, P. polymyxa 92, and their EPSs promoted wheat growth,
increasing root and shoot length up to 22% and root and
shoot dry weight up to 28%, as compared with the control.
In addition, both strains were found to intensely colonize the
seedling root surface. Thus, P. polymyxa EPSs are active metabolites
that, along with whole cells, are responsible for the
contact interactions of the bacteria with wheat roots and are
implicated in the induction of plant responses to these interactions.
The strains used in this work are of interest for
further study to broaden the existing understanding of the
mechanisms of plant–bacterial interactions and to develop
effective biofertilizers for agricultural purposes.

Abstract
-
A Gram-stain-positive, rod-shaped, non-endospore-forming,
motile by means of peritrichous flagella, facultatively anaerobic
bacterium designated TI45-13arT was isolated from Nuruk,
a Korean traditional Makgeolli fermentation starter. It grew
at 4–35°C (optimum, 28–30°C), pH 5.0–9.0 (optimum, pH
7.0) and NaCl concentrations up to 5% (w/v). Phylogenetic
trees generated using 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that
strain TI45-13arT belonged to the genus Paenibacillus and
showed the highest sequence similarities with Paenibacillus
kyungheensis DCY88T (98.5%), Paenibacillus hordei RH-N24T
(98.4%) and Paenibacillus nicotianae YIM h-19T (98.1%). The
major fatty acid was anteiso-C15:0. The DNA G+C content
was 39.0 mol%, and MK-7 was the predominant isoprenoid
quinone. The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol,
phosphatidylethanolamine, three unidentified
glycolipids, and one unidentified aminoglycolipid. The
cell-wall peptidoglycan contained meso-diaminopimelic acid.
On the basis of polyphasic taxonomy study, it was suggested
that strain TI45-13arT represents a novel species within the genus
Paenibacillus for which the name Paenibacillus nuruki
sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain was TI45-13arT (= KACC
18728T = NBRC 112013T).

Abstract
-
Strain ML311-T8T was isolated from a glacial retreat area in
Svalbard, Norway, and was taxonomically characterized by
a polyphasic approach. Upon phylogenetic analysis, strain
ML311-T8T was clustered with Paenibacillus arcticus MME2_
R6T and P. contaminans CKOBP-6T with 98.3–98.6 and 93.5–
93.9% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities, respectively.
DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain ML311-T8T
and P. arcticus MME2_R6T was 19.9%. The genomic DNA
G+C content was 41.1 mol%. The isolated strain was Gramstain-
positive, strictly aerobic and rod-shaped, and grew in
0–0.5% (w/v) NaCl, at 4–23°C and pH 6.0–10.0, with optimal
growth in 0% (w/v) NaCl, at 20°C and pH 7.0–8.0. The predominant
respiratory quinone of strain ML311-T8T was MK-
7 and the major fatty acids were anteiso-C15:0 and C16:0. The
polar lipids of strain ML311-T8T were phosphatidylglycerol,
phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, three unidentified
amino lipids, and three unidentified lipids. On the
basis of polyphasic taxonomic analysis, the strain ML311-T8T
is proposed to represent a novel species of the genus Paenibacillus,
for which the name Paenibacillus psychroresistens sp.
nov. is proposed. The type strain is ML311-T8T (= KCCM
43190T = JCM 31243T).

Abstract
-
Strain DCT-19T, representing a Gram-stain-positive, rodshaped,
aerobic bacterium, was isolated from a native plant
belonging to the genus Campanula on Dokdo, the Republic of
Korea. Comparative analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence
showed that this strain was closely related to Paenibacillus
amylolyticus NRRL NRS-290T (98.6%, 16S rRNA gene sequence
similarity), Paenibacillus tundrae A10bT (98.1%), and
Paenibacillus xylanexedens NRRL B-51090T (97.6%). DNADNA
hybridization indicated that this strain had relatively
low levels of DNA-DNA relatedness with P. amylolyticus
NRRL NRS-290T (30.0%), P. xylanexedens NRRL B-51090T
(29.0%), and P. tundrae A10bT (24.5%). Additionally, the genomic
DNA G + C content of DCT-19T was 44.8%. The isolated
strain grew at pH 6.0–8.0 (optimum, pH 7.0), 0–4%
(w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0%), and a temperature of 15–45°C
(optimum 25–30°C). The sole respiratory quinone in the strain
was menaquinone-7, and the predominant fatty acids were
C15:0 anteiso, C16:0 iso, and C16:0. In addition, the major polar
lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine.
Based on its phenotypic properties, genotypic distinctiveness,
and chemotaxonomic features, strain DCT-19T
is proposed as a novel species in the genus Paenibacillus, for
which the name Paenibacillus seodonensis sp. nov. is proposed
(=KCTC 43009T =LMG 30888T). The type strain of
Paenibacillus seodonensis is DCT-19T.

Abstract
-
A rod-shaped, white color colony with lobate architectures,
strain h2T was isolated from a moderately acidic soil on Jeju
Island, Republic of Korea. Comparative analysis of the 16S
rRNA gene sequence showed that the strain h2T is closely
related to Paenibacillus relictisesami DSM 25385T (97.4%,
16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), Paenibacillus azoreducens
KACC 11244T (97.2%), and Paenibacillus cookii LMG
18419T (97.0%). DNA-DNA hybridization indicated that the
strain h2T has relatively low levels of DNA-DNA relatedness
with respect to P. relictisesami DSM 25385T (10.2%) and P.
azoreducens KACC 11244T (13.7%). Additionally, the genomic
DNA G + C content of h2T is 51.5 mol%. The isolated strain
grew at pH 4.0–9.0 (optimum, pH 6.0–7.0) and 0–5% (w/v)
NaCl (optimum, 0%) and a temperature of 15–45°C (optimum
35°C). The quinones in the strain are MK-6 and MK-7,
and the predominant fatty acid is C15:0 anteiso (32.1%) followed
by C17:0 anteiso (26.5%), and C16:0 iso (21.0%). Based
on its phenotypic properties, genotypic distinctiveness, and
chemotaxonomic features, strain h2T is proposed as a novel
species in the genus Paenibacillus, for which the name Paenibacillus
albilobatus sp. nov. is proposed (= KCCM 43269T =
JCM 32395T = LMG 30408T). The type strain of Paenibacillus
albilobatus is h2T.

Abstract
-
Tricholoma matsutake is an ectomycorrhizal fungus usually
associated with Pinus densiflora in South Korea. Fruiting
bodies (mushrooms) of T. matsutake are economically important
due to their attractive aroma; yet, T. matsutake is
uncultivatable and its habitat is rapidly being eradicated due
to global climate change. Root-associated bacteria can influence
the growth of ectomycorrhizal fungi that co-exist in the
host rhizosphere and distinctive bacterial communities are
associated with T. matsutake. In this study, we investigated
how these bacterial communities affect T. matsutake growth
by isolating bacteria from the roots of P. densiflora colonized
by ectomycorrhizae of T. matsutake and co-culturing rootassociated
bacteria with T. matsutake isolates. Thirteen species
of bacteria (27 isolates) were found in pine roots, all
belonging to the orders Bacillales or Burkholderiales. Two
species in the genus Paenibacillus promoted the growth of
T. matsutake in glucose poor conditions, likely using soluble
metabolites. In contrast, other bacteria suppressed the growth
of T. matsutake using both soluble and volatile metabolites.
Antifungal activity was more frequent in glucose poor conditions.
In general, pine rhizospheres harbored many bacteria
that had a negative impact on T. matsutake growth and the
few Paenibacillus species that promoted T. matsutake growth.
Paenibacillus species, therefore, may represent a promising
resource toward successful cultivation of T. matsutake.

Abstract
-
A Gram-stain-positive, motile, endospore-forming, and strictly
aerobic rod-shaped bacterium designated DS80T was isolated
from an island soil. The strain DS80T grew at temperatures
between 15 and 40°C (optimum = 30°C) and at pH values
ranging from 5.0 to 9.0 (optimum = 7.0). The phylogenetic
analysis based on the comparisons of the 16S rRNA gene sequences
showed that the isolate was affiliated to the genus
Paenibacillus and was mostly related to Paenibacillus assamensis
GPTSA11T (with the sequence similarity of 96.33%)
and Paenibacillus urinalis 5402403T(95.48%). The G+C content
of the genomic DNA was 44.0 mol% and the major fatty
acids were anteiso-C15:0, iso-C15:0, iso-C16:0, and C16:1 ω11c.
Strain DS80T contained MK-7 as the major menaquinone,
and phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, and
diphosphatidylglycerol as the major polar lipids. The peptidoglycan
contained a major amount of meso-diaminopimelic
acid. The chemotaxonomic profile of strain DS80T was consistent
with that of Paenibacillus. However, the phenotypic
properties clearly separated the strain from other species of
the genus. Accordingly, a new species, Paenibacillus insulae
sp. nov., is proposed (type strain =DS80T =JCM 17278T
=KCTC 13833T).

Abstract
-
Strain CO 4-7T was isolated from greenhouse soil used for cultivation of cucumbers in Korea. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain CO 4-7T showed the highest sequence similarity with Paenibacillus contaminans CKOBP-6T (94.2%) among the type strains. Strain CO 4-7T was a strictly aerobic, Gram-staining-positive, endospore-forming, and motile rodshaped bacterium. Strain CO 4-7T grew at 10–45°C (optimum, 30°C), at pH 6.0–7.5 (optimum, pH 6.5) and in the presence of 0–5% NaCl (optimum, 0.5%). The DNA G+C content of strain CO 4-7T was 48.5 mol%. It contained MK-7 as the major isoprenoid quinone and anteiso-C15:0 (51.8%), C16:0 (12.7%), and iso-C16:0 (8.6%) as the major fatty acids. The cell wall contained meso-diaminopimelic acid. Based on evidence from our polyphasic taxonomic study, it was concluded that strain CO 4-7T should be classified as a novel species of the genus Paenibacillus, for which, the name Paenibacillus cucumis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CO 4-7T (=KACC 17444T=JCM 19515T).

Abstract
-
Using a new culture method for unculturable soil bacteria, strain NB5T was isolated from forest soil at Kyonggi University, and characterized taxonomically on the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence as well as phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics. The novel strain was a Gram- and catalase-positive, rod-shaped bacterium, which grew in the pH range 6.0–9.5 (optimum, 6.5–9.5) and at temperatures between 15°C and 45°C (optimum, 25–40°C). Growth was possible
at 0–5% NaCl (optimum, 0% to 3%) in nutrient, Luria-Bertani, and trypticase soy broths (TSB), as well as R2A medium (with optimal growth in TSB). A phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that the novel strain was affiliated with the genus Paenibacillus and had 96.8% and 96.5% similarity to P. nanensis MX2-3T and P. agaridevorans DSM 1355T, respectively. The predominant menaquinone in NB5T was MK-7; the major fatty acids were anteiso-C15:0 and iso-C16:0; and the DNA G+C content was 54.5 mol%. We propose this strain as a novel species of the genus Paenibacillus, and suggest the name Paenibacillus pinesoli
sp. nov. (type strain, KACC 17472T =KEMB 9005-025T =JCM 19203T).

Abstract
-
Strain DY6T, a Gram-positive endospore-forming motile rodshaped bacterium, was isolated from soil in South Korea and characterized to determine its taxonomic position. Phylogenetic analyses based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain DY6T revealed that strain DY6T belongs to the genus Paenibacillus in the family Paenibacillaceae in the class Bacilli. The highest degree of sequence similarities of strain DY6T were found with Paenibacillus gansuensis B518T (97.9%), P. chitinolyticus IFO 15660T (95.3%), P. chinjuensis WN9T (94.7%), and P. rigui WPCB173T (94.7%). Chemotaxonomic data revealed that the predominant fatty acids were anteiso-C15:0 (38.7%) and C16:0 (18.0%). A complex polar lipid profile consisted of major amounts of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylglycerol. The predominant respiratory quinone was MK-7. Based on these phylogenetic, chemotaxonomic, and phenotypic data, strain DY6T (=KCTC 33026T =JCM 18491T) should be classified as a type strain of a novel species, for which the name Paenibacillus swuensis sp. nov. is proposed.

Abstract
-
A Gram-negative, nonmotile, endospore-forming, rod-shaped bacterial strain LHW35T, which belonged to the genus Paenibacillus, was isolated from marine sediment collected from the south coast of the Republic of Korea. A phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain LHW35T was most closely related to Paenibacillus taiwanensis G-soil-2-3T (97.2% similarity). The optimal growth conditions for strain LHW35T were 37°C, pH 6.0, and 0% (w/v) NaCl. The main isoprenoid quinone was menaquinone-7 (MK-7) and the major polyamine was spermidine. The diamino acid present in the cell-wall peptidoglycan was meso-diaminopimelic acid. The major fatty acids were anteiso-C15:0 and C16:0. The polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, unidentified aminohospholipids, unidentified phospholipids, and unidentified polar lipids. A DNA-DNA hybridization experiment using the type strain of P. taiwanensis indicated <40% relatedness. The DNA G+C content was 45.0 mol%. Based on these phylogenetic, genomic, and phenotypic analyses, strain LHW35T should be classified as a novel species within the genus Paenibacillus, for which the name Paenibacillus marinisediminis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is LHW35T (=KACC 16317T =JCM 17886T).

Abstract
-
A mesophilic, facultative, anaerobic, xylanolytic-cellulolytic bacterium, TW1T, was isolated from sludge in an anaerobic digester fed with pineapple waste. Cells stained Gram-positive, were spore-forming, and had the morphology of straight to slightly curved rods. Growth was observed in the temperature range of 30 to 50°C (optimum 37°C) and the pH range of 6.0 to 7.5 (optimum pH 7.0) under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. The strain contained meso-diaminopimelic acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan. The predominant isoprenoid quinone was menaquinone with seven isoprene units (MK-7). Anteiso-C15:0, iso-C16:0, anteiso-C17:0, and C16:0 were the predominant cellular fatty acids. The G+C content of the DNA was 49.5 mol%. A phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA showed that strain TW1T belonged within the genus Paenibacillus and was closely related to Paenibacillus cellulosilyticus LMG 22232T, P. curdlanolyticus KCTC 3759T, and P. kobensis KCTC 3761T with 97.7, 97.5, and 97.3% sequence similarity, respectively. The DNA-DNA hybridization values between the isolate and type strains of P. cellulosilyticus LMG 22232T, P. curdlanolyticus KCTC 3759T, and P. kobensis KCTC 3761T were found to be 18.6, 18.3, and 18.0%, respectively. The protein and xylanase patterns of strain TW1T were quite different from those of the type strains of closely related Paenibacillus species. On the basis of DNA-DNA relatedness and phenotypic analyses, phylogenetic data and the enzymatic pattern presented in this study, strain TW1T should be classified as a novel species of the genus Paenibacillus, for which the name Paenibacillus xylaniclasticus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is TW1T (=NBRC 106381T =KCTC 13719T =TISTR 1914T).

Abstract
-
Two lipopeptide antibiotics, pelgipeptins C and D, were isolated from Paenibacillus elgii B69 strain. The molecular masses of the two compounds were both determined to be 1,086 Da. Mass-spectrometry, amino acid analysis and NMR spectroscopy indicated that pelgipeptin C was the same compound as BMY-28160, while pelgipeptin D was identified as a new antibiotic of the polypeptin family. These two peptides were active against all the tested microorganisms, including antibiotic-resistant pathogenic bacterial strains such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Time-kill assays demonstrated that pelgipeptin D exhibited rapid and effective bactericidal action against MRSA at 4×MIC. Based on acute toxicity test, the intraperitoneal LD50 value of pelgipeptin D was slightly higher than that of the structurally related antimicrobial agent polymyxin B. Pelgipeptins are highly potent antibacterial and antifungal agents, particularly against MRSA, and warrant further investigation as possible therapeutic agents for bacteria infections resistant to currently available antibiotics.

Abstract
-
A phosphate-solubilizing bacterial strain designated PS38T was isolated from farm soil. The isolate was
a Gram-positive, motile, endospore-forming, rod-shaped bacterium. It grew optimally at 37oC and pH 7.5.
The predominant cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C15:0, anteiso-C17:0, and iso-C16:0. The DNA G+C content
was 49.5 mol% and the predominant menaquinone was MK-7. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA
gene sequences showed that the strain PS38T belonged to the genus Paenibacillus and was most closely
related to Paenibacillus chibensis JCM 9905T, P. barengoltzii SAFN-016T, P. timonensis 2301032T, and P.
motobuensis MC10T with 96.3%, 96.0%, 95.9%, and 95.5% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, respectively.
On the basis of morphological, chemotaxonomic, physiological, and phylogenetic properties, strain PS38T
represents a novel species of the genus Paenibacillus, for which the name Paenibacillus telluris sp. nov.
is proposed. The type strain is PS38T (=KCTC 13946T =CGMCC 1.10695T).

Abstract

Strain S22T, a novel cellulolytic bacterium was isolated from the rhizosphere of pine trees. This isolate was Gram-reaction positive, motile and rods, and formed terminal or subterminal ellipsoidal spores. S22T represented positive activity for catalase, oxidase, esterase (C4), esterase lipase (C8), β-galactosidase, leucine arylamidase, and hydrolysis of esculin. It contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid in the cell-wall. The predominant isoprenoid quinone was menaquinone 7 (MK-7), and the major cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C15:0 (52.9%), iso-C16:0 (11.3%), and iso-C15:0 (10.0%). The DNA G+C content was 43.3 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that this isolate belonged to the family Paenibacillaceae. S22T exhibited less than 97.0% 16S rRNA gene similarity with all relative type strains in the genus Paenibacillus, and the most closely related strains were Paenibacillus anaericanus MH21T and Paenibacillus ginsengisoli Gsoil 1638T, with equal similarities of 95.8%. This polyphasic evidence suggested that strain S22T should be considered a novel species in the genus Paenibacillus, for which the name, Paenibacillus pini sp. nov., is proposed. The type strain is S22T (=KCTC 13694T =KACC 14198T =JCM 16418T)
