Title: Pedobacter caeni sp. nov., a novel species isolated from a nitrifying inoculum. Author: Vanparys B, Heylen K, Lebbe L, De Vos P. Journal: Int J Syst Evol Microbiol; 2005 May; 55(Pt 3):1315-1318. PubMed ID: 15879274. Abstract: A Gram-negative, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming bacterium was isolated from a nitrifying inoculum. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, LMG 22862(T) was shown to belong to the family Sphingobacteriaceae, related to Pedobacter africanus (98.0 %) and Pedobacter heparinus (97.6 %). The results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, DNA-DNA hybridization, SDS-PAGE, analysis of the fatty acid composition and physiological and biochemical tests allowed genotypic and phenotypic differentiation of LMG 22862(T) from Pedobacter species with validly published names. LMG 22862(T) therefore represents a novel species within this genus, for which the name Pedobacter caeni sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain LMG 22862(T) (=DSM 16990(T)).[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
