A Gram negative, aerobic, non-motile and rod-shaped bacterial
strain designated as Gr-2T was isolated from granules
used in a wastewater treatment plant in Korea, and its taxonomic
position was investigated using a polyphasic approach.
Strain Gr-2T grew at 18–37°C (optimum temperature, 30°C)
and a pH of 6.0–8.0 (optimum pH, 7.0) on R2A agar medium.
Based on 16S rRNA gene phylogeny, the novel strain showed
a new branch within the genus Pseudaminobacter of the family
Phyllobacteriaceae, and formed clusters with Pseudaminobacter
defluvii THI 051T (98.9%) and Pseudaminobacter
salicylatoxidans BN12T (98.7%). The G+C content of the genomic
DNA was 63.6%. The predominant respiratory quinone
was ubiquinone-10 (Q-10) and the major fatty acids were
cyclo-C19:0 ω8c, C18:1 ω7c, and iso-C17:0. The overall polar lipid
patterns of Gr-2T were similar to those determined for the
other Pseudaminobacter species. DNA-DNA relatedness values
between strain Gr-2T and its closest phylogenetically neighbors
were below 18%. Strain Gr-2T could be differentiated genotypically
and phenotypically from the recognized species of the
genus Pseudaminobacter. The isolate therefore represents a
novel species, for which the name Pseudaminobacter granuli
sp. nov. is proposed with the type strain Gr-2T (=KACC 18877T
=LMG 29567T).
