A novel bacterium designated RR4-40T was isolated from a
biofilter of seawater recirculating aquaculture system in Busan,
South Korea. Cells are strictly aerobic, Gram-negative, irregular
short rod, non-motile, and oxidase- and catalase-negative.
Growth was observed at 15–30°C, 0.5–6% NaCl (w/v),
and pH 5.0–9.5. The strain grew optimally at 28°C, 3% salinity
(w/v), and pH 8.5. The phylogenetic analysis based on
16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain RR4-40T was
most closely related to Marinirhabdus gelatinilytica NH83T
(94.16% of 16S rRNA gene similarity) and formed a cluster
with genera within the family Flavobacteriaceae. The values
of the average nucleotide identity (ANI), digital DNA-DNA
hybridization (dDDH), and average amino acid identity (AAI)
between genomes of strain RR4-40T and M. gelatinilytica
NH83T were 72.91, 18.2, and 76.84%, respectively, and the
values against the strains in the other genera were lower than
those. The major fatty acids were iso-C15:0 (31.34%), iso-C17:0
3-OH (13.65%), iso-C16:0 3-OH (10.61%), and iso-C15:1 G
(10.38%). The polar lipids comprised phosphatidylglycerol,
diphosphatidylglycerol, aminophospholipid, aminolipid, glycolipid,
and sphingolipid. The major respiratory quinone was
menaquinone-6 (MK-6) and the DNA G + C content of strain
RR4-40T was 37.4 mol%. According to the polyphasic analysis,
strain RR4-40T is considered to represent a novel genus within
the family Flavobacteriaceae, for which the name Rasiella
rasia gen. nov, sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is RR4-40T
(= KCTC 52650T = MCCC 1K04210T).

A novel bacterium, designated strain RR4-56T, was isolated
from a biofilter of a seawater recirculating aquaculture system.
The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that the
isolate was closely related to Halovulum dunhuangense YYQ-
30T (92.6%), Albimonas donghaensis DS2T (91.3%), Pontivivens
insulae GYSW-23T (91.3%), and Monaibacterium marinum
C7T (90.9%), belonging to the family Rhodobacteraceae.
The strain was aerobic, Gram-negative, rod-shaped, oxidasepositive,
and catalase-negative. Its optimum temperature,
pH, and salinity for growth were 25–30°C, pH 8.5, and 2–3%
NaCl (w/v), respectively. Its growth occurred at 15–35°C, pH
5.0–9.5, and 0–7% NaCl (w/v). It contained ubiquinone-10
(Q-10), a respiratory quinone, and the major cellular fatty
acids were 11-methyl C18:1 ω7c (31.9%), C18:1 ω6c (30.4%),
and C19:0 cyclo ω8c (16.1%). The polar lipids present in the
strain were phosphatidylglycerol, an unidentified phospholipid,
and an unidentified aminolipid. The strain had one
4,373,045 bp circular chromosome with G + C contents of
65.9 mol% including 4,169 genes, 4,118 coding sequences
(CDSs), 3 rRNAs, and 45 tRNAs. Genome annotation predicted
some gene clusters related to the degradation of several
types of organic matter such as protocatechuate, catechol,
and phthalate. Based on the polyphasic characteristics,
RR4-56T represents a novel genus and species in the family
Rhodobacteraceae, for which the name Pikeienuella piscinae
gen. nov., sp. nov. was proposed. The type strain is RR4-56T
(= KCTC 52648T = DSM 107918T).
