  • Title: Pleionea mediterranea gen. nov., sp. nov., a gammaproteobacterium isolated from coastal seawater.
    Author: Fagervold SK, Urios L, Intertaglia L, Batailler N, Lebaron P, Suzuki MT.
    Journal: Int J Syst Evol Microbiol; 2013 Jul; 63(Pt 7):2700-2705. PubMed ID: 23291888.
    Abstract:
    A Gram-negative, aerobic, cream-pigmented, non-motile, non-spore-forming straight rod, strain MOLA115(T), was isolated from a coastal water sample from the Mediterranean Sea. On the basis of phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences, strain MOLA115(T) was shown to belong to the Gammaproteobacteria, adjacent to members of the genera Marinicella, Arenicella and Kangiella, sharing less than 89 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with strains of all recognized species within the Gammaproteobacteria. The only isoprenoid quinone was ubiquinone-8. Polar lipids in strain MOLA115(T) included phosphatidylethanolamine, an aminolipid, phosphatidylglycerol and an aminophospholipid. Fatty acid analysis revealed iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C17 : 1ω9c to be the dominant components. The DNA G+C content was 44.5 mol%. Based upon the phenotypic and phylogenetic data, we propose that strain MOLA115(T) should be considered to represent a novel species in a new genus, for which the name Pleionea mediterranea gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Pleionea mediterranea is MOLA115(T) ( = CIP 110343(T) = DSM 25350(T)).
