  • Title: Mesorhizobium olivaresii sp. nov. isolated from Lotus corniculatus nodules.
    Author: Lorite MJ, Flores-Félix JD, Peix Á, Sanjuán J, Velázquez E.
    Journal: Syst Appl Microbiol; 2016 Dec; 39(8):557-561. PubMed ID: 27712916.
    Abstract:
    In this study four Mesorhizobium strains isolated from Lotus corniculatus nodules in Granada (Spain) were characterized. Their 16S rRNA gene sequences were closely related to those of M. albiziae LMG 23507T and M. chacoense Pr5T showing 99.4 and 99.2% similarity values, respectively. The analysis of concatenated rpoB, recA, atpD and glnII genes showed they formed a cluster with internal similarities higher than 97%. The closest species also were M. albiziae LMG 23507T and M. chacoense Pr5T showing similarity values lower than 92% in rpoB, recA and glnII genes and lower than 96.5% in the atpD gene. These results indicated that the L. corniculatus strains belong to a new species of genus Mesorhizobium which was confirmed by DNA-DNA hybridization and phenotypic characterization. Therefore a new species with the name Mesorhizobium olivaresii sp. nov. is proposed, and the type strain is CPS13T (LMG 29295T=CECT 9099T).
