    Abstract:
    A Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, non-motile, yellow-pigmented, strictly aerobic bacterial strain, designated En5(T), was isolated from the East Sea of Korea and was subjected to a polyphasic taxonomy study. Strain En5(T) grew optimally at 30 degrees C, in the presence of 1-3 % (w/v) NaCl and at pH 5.3-7.6. The major respiratory lipoquinone was MK-6 and the major fatty acids were iso-C(15 : 0), iso-C(17 : 0) 3-OH and iso-C(17 : 1)omega9c. The DNA G+C content of strain En5(T) was 30.1 mol%. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain En5(T) formed a distinct evolutionary lineage within the family Flavobacteriaceae and shared 93 % sequence similarity with the type strains of both Galbibacter mesophilus and Zhouia amylolytica. On the basis of its phenotypic and phylogenetic properties, strain En5(T) is suggested to represent a novel species of a new genus in the family Flavobacteriaceae, for which the name Joostella marina gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is En5(T) (=KCTC 12518(T)=DSM 19592(T)=CGMCC 1.6973(T)).
