Abstract
-
An aerobic, Gram-negative bacterium, designated strain
SD70T, was isolated from sea cucumber aquaculture farm
sediment in Taean, Korea, and its taxonomic status was established
by undertaking a polyphasic study. Cells of strain
SD70T were non-motile, catalase-, and oxidase-positive, nonspore-
forming, and horseshoe-shaped. Optimal growth was
observed under 25–30°C, pH 7.0–8.0, and 3.0–5.0% (w/v)
NaCl conditions. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA
gene sequences revealed that strain SD70T fell within an
evolutionary group comprising species of the genus Cyclobacterium.
Strain SD70T shared 92.1–98.5% 16S rRNA sequence
similarity values with the type strains of species of the
genus Cyclobacterium. Relatively low levels of DNA-DNA
relatedness were found between strain SD70T and C. marinum
DSM 745T (40.2%) and C. amurskyense KMM 6143T
(15.8%). The predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C15:0
(32.1%), and anteiso-C15:0 (9.1%). Menaquinone MK-7 was
the only respiratory quinone. The G+C content of the genomic
DNA was 36 mol%. The polar lipids were phosphatidylcholine,
phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol,
and seven unidentified lipids. On the basis of phenotypic and
genotypic data, strain SD70T represents a novel species of the
genus Cyclobacterium, for which the name Cyclobacterium
sediminis sp. nov. is proposed. An emended description of
the genus Cyclobacterium is also provided.

Abstract
-
A Gram-stain negative, yellow-pigmented, motile, pleomorphic
bacterium, designated strain CBA4602T, was isolated
from the gut of the sea cucumber Stichopus japonicus, which
was collected from Jeju Island in the Republic of Korea. In
a phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene, strain
CBA4602T belonged to the order Sphingomonadales in the
class Alphaproteobacteria. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity
between strain CBA4602T and ‘Citromicrobium bathyomarinum’
JF-1, the most closely related strain having nonvalidly
published name, was 98.4%, followed by 95.2–96.7%
identities with sequence of the other closest strains in the
genus Erythrobacter. Strain CBA4602T had bacteriochlorophyll
a and carotenoids. Strain CBA4602T grew in 0–10%
(w/v) NaCl, at 10–42°C and pH 6.0–8.0, with optimal growth
in 1–2% NaCl, at 30–37°C and pH 7.0. Strain CBA4602T
was positive for catalase and oxidase activities and was able
to hydrolyse gelatine and Tween 20 and 40, but not starch,
Tween 80 or L-tyrosine. The G+C content of genomic DNA
from strain CBA4602T was 68.0 mol% and Q-10 was the major
detected isoprenoid quinone. The polar lipids were three
unidentified phospholipids, three unidentified glycolipids,
and two unidentified lipids. The dominant fatty acids were
anteiso-C15:0, C16:0, anteiso-C17:0 and C18:0. As considering
the current taxonomic status of the genus ‘Citromicrobium’
and polyphasic taxonomic analyses, strain CBA4602T represents
a novel genus and species. The name Citrimicrobium
luteum is proposed for the type strain CBA4602T (=KACC
17668T =JCM 19530T).
