Title: Neptunicella marina gen. nov., sp. nov., isolated from surface seawater. Author: Liu X, Lai Q, Du Y, Zhang X, Liu Z, Sun F, Shao Z. Journal: Int J Syst Evol Microbiol; 2018 May; 68(5):1423-1428. PubMed ID: 29533174. Abstract: A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, short rod-shaped bacterium with a single polar flagellum, designated strain S27-2T, was isolated from surface seawater from the Indian Ocean. Growth was observed in 0-12.0 % (w/v) NaCl with an optimum of 0.5-2.0 % (w/v) NaCl, pH 6.0-9.0 with an optimum of pH 7.0, and growth temperature of 10-41 °C with an optimum of 25-37 °C. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain S27-2T belonged to the family Alteromonadaceae and formed a distinct lineage with the type strain of Pseudobowmanella zhangzhouensis. Levels of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between strain S27-2T and members of related genera included in the trees ranged from 86.7 to 93.8 %. Strain S27-2T contained Q-8 as the predominant ubiquinone. The principal fatty acids (>10 %) were C16 : 0 (22.1 %), C16 : 1ω7c/ω6c (22.7 %) and C18 : 1ω7c/ω6c (20.1 %). The polar lipids consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, one unidentified phospholipid and two unknown lipids. The G+C content of strain S27-2T was 43.7 mol%. On the basis of the polyphasic taxonomic evidence presented in this study, strain S27-2T should be classified as a novel species in a new genus within the family Alteromonadaceae, for which the name Neptunicella marina gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain S27-2T (= KCTC52335T=MCCC 1A02149T).[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
