Abstract
-
A novel bacterium designated RR4-40T was isolated from a
biofilter of seawater recirculating aquaculture system in Busan,
South Korea. Cells are strictly aerobic, Gram-negative, irregular
short rod, non-motile, and oxidase- and catalase-negative.
Growth was observed at 15–30°C, 0.5–6% NaCl (w/v),
and pH 5.0–9.5. The strain grew optimally at 28°C, 3% salinity
(w/v), and pH 8.5. The phylogenetic analysis based on
16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain RR4-40T was
most closely related to Marinirhabdus gelatinilytica NH83T
(94.16% of 16S rRNA gene similarity) and formed a cluster
with genera within the family Flavobacteriaceae. The values
of the average nucleotide identity (ANI), digital DNA-DNA
hybridization (dDDH), and average amino acid identity (AAI)
between genomes of strain RR4-40T and M. gelatinilytica
NH83T were 72.91, 18.2, and 76.84%, respectively, and the
values against the strains in the other genera were lower than
those. The major fatty acids were iso-C15:0 (31.34%), iso-C17:0
3-OH (13.65%), iso-C16:0 3-OH (10.61%), and iso-C15:1 G
(10.38%). The polar lipids comprised phosphatidylglycerol,
diphosphatidylglycerol, aminophospholipid, aminolipid, glycolipid,
and sphingolipid. The major respiratory quinone was
menaquinone-6 (MK-6) and the DNA G + C content of strain
RR4-40T was 37.4 mol%. According to the polyphasic analysis,
strain RR4-40T is considered to represent a novel genus within
the family Flavobacteriaceae, for which the name Rasiella
rasia gen. nov, sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is RR4-40T
(= KCTC 52650T = MCCC 1K04210T).

Abstract
-
The effects of temperature, water activity (aw), incubation time, and their combinations on radial growth and ochratoxin A (OTA) production of/by eight Aspergillus niger aggregate strains (six A. tubingensis and two A. niger) and four A. carbonarius isolated from Moroccan grapes were studied. Optimal conditions for the growth of most studied strains were shown to be at 25°C and 0.95 aw. No growth was observed at 10°C regardless of the water activity and isolates. The optimal temperature for OTA production was in the range of 25°C~30°C for A. carbonarius and 30°C~37°C for A. niger aggregate. The optimal aw for toxin production was 0.95~0.99 for A. carbonarius and 0.90~0.95 for A. niger aggregate. Mean OTA concentration produced by all the isolates of A. niger aggregate tested at all sampling times shows that maximum amount of OTA (0.24 µg/g) was produced at 37°C and 0.90 aw. However, for A. carbonarius, mean maximum amounts of OTA (0.22 µg/g) were observed at 25°C and 0.99 aw. Analysis of variance showed that the effects of all single factors (aw, isolate, temperature and incubation time) and their interactions on growth and OTA production were highly significant.
