  • Title: Burkholderia sprentiae sp. nov., isolated from Lebeckia ambigua root nodules.
    Author: De Meyer SE, Cnockaert M, Ardley JK, Maker G, Yates R, Howieson JG, Vandamme P.
    Journal: Int J Syst Evol Microbiol; 2013 Nov; 63(Pt 11):3950-3957. PubMed ID: 23710047.
    Abstract:
    Seven Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped bacteria were isolated from Lebeckia ambigua root nodules and authenticated on this host. Based on the 16S rRNA gene phylogeny, they were shown to belong to the genus Burkholderia, with the representative strain WSM5005(T) being most closely related to Burkholderia tuberum (98.08 % sequence similarity). Additionally, these strains formed a distinct group in phylogenetic trees based on the housekeeping genes gyrB and recA. Chemotaxonomic data including fatty acid profiles and analysis of respiratory quinones supported the assignment of the strains to the genus Burkholderia. Results of DNA-DNA hybridizations, and physiological and biochemical tests allowed genotypic and phenotypic differentiation of our strains from the closest species of the genus Burkholderia with a validly published name. Therefore, these strains represent a novel species for which the name Burkholderia sprentiae sp. nov. (type strain WSM5005(T) = LMG 27175(T) = HAMBI 3357(T)) is proposed.
