    Abstract:
    A Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, non-flagellated, oxidase- and catalase-positive, rod-shaped marine bacterium, designated strain DM8T, was isolated from the intestine of Trichiurus japonicus in Weihai, China. The strain optimally grew at 25-35℃, with 1.0-4.0% (w/v) NaCl and at pH 7.0-8.0. Its colonies were circular, slightly yellow, non-transparent, smooth, and approximately 0.8-1.5 mm in diameter, after being cultured for 48 h on marine agar 2216. Based on the result of phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequence, strain DM8T had close relationship with Oceanisphaera profunda SM1222T (96.9%) and the type strain DSM 15406 T of the type species Oceanisphaera litoralis (94.7%), respectively. Genome sequencing revealed a genome size of 3,109,059 bp and a G + C content of 46.9 mol%. It had Q-8 as the sole respiratory quinone and possessed C16:0, summed features 3 (C16:1ω7c/C16:1ω6c) and summed features 8 (C18:1ω7c/C18:1ω6c) as major fatty acids. The major polar lipid profile was composed of phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. Based on the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic characterizations, phylogenetic properties and genome analysis, strain DM8T should represent a novel species of the genus Oceanisphaera, for which the name Oceanisphaera pacifica sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DM8T (= KCTC 82764 T = MCCC 1K06133T).
