Three novel strains, (D17T, D13, and D25T) isolated from the
gut of the Korean dark sleeper (Odontobutis platycephala),
Kumgang fat minnow (Rhynchocypris kumgangensis), and
the Korean oily bitterling (Tanakia koreensis) were identified
as two novel species. Strains D17T and D13 showed the highest
similarities in 16S rRNA gene and complete genome sequences
to Deefgea rivuli WB 3.4-79T (98.0% and 97.9%, respectively,
of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, 77.8% and 77.7%, respectively,
of orthologous average nucleotide identity, Ortho-
ANI, and 21.9% and 21.9%, respectively, of digital DNA-DNA
hybridization, dDDH). Strain D17T showed the highest similarities
in 16S rRNA gene and complete genome sequences to
D13 (99.9% of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, 91.8% of
OrthoANI, and 45.1% of dDDH); therefore, strains D17T and
D13 were assigned as the same species. Strain D25T showed the
highest similarities in 16S rRNA gene and complete genome
sequences to D. chitinilytica Nsw-4T (98.2% of 16S rRNA gene
sequence similarity, 82.4% of OrthoANI, and 25.1% of dDDH).
Strains D17T and D13 were Gram-stain-negative, facultative
anaerobes, rod-shaped, non-motile, and non-flagellated. Strain
D25T was Gram-stain-negative, facultative anaerobe, rodshaped,
and motile by a single polar flagellum. These strains
had C16:0 and summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω7c and/or C16:1 ω6c) as
the major cellular fatty acids and possessed Q-8 as a major
respiratory ubiquinone. All three strains contained phosphatidylethanolamine
and phosphatidylglycerol as the major polar
lipids. Based on polyphasic taxonomic data, strains D17T, D13,
and D25T represent two novel species of the genus Deefgea.
We propose the name Deefgea piscis sp. nov. for strains D17T
(= KCTC 82958T = JCM 34941T) and D13 (= KCTC 92368),
and Deefgea tanakiae sp. nov. for strain D25T (= KCTC 82959T
= JCM 34942T).

Abstract

Two novel bacterial strains, KSM-R2A25T and KSM-R2A30T,
were isolated from intestines of Cyclina sinensis (corb shell)
and Channa argus (northern snakehead), respectively. Both
specimens were collected in Korea. The strains were Gramstain-
negative, non-motile, and strictly aerobic. According
to phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences,
strains belonged to the genus Flavobacterium within the family
Flavobacteriaceae. 16S rRNA gene sequences of strains KSMR2A25T
and KSM-R2A30T were closely related to Flavobacterium
cucumis DSM 18830T and Flavobacterium aquaticum
JC164T with sequence similarities of 97.77% and 98.54%, respectively.
Further genomic analyses including reconstruction
of the UBCG tree and overall genome-related indices suggested
them as novel species of the genus Flavobacterium.
Both strains contained menaquinone with six isoprene units
(MK-6) as a major isoprenoid quinone and iso-C15:1 G, iso-
C15:0, and iso-C16:0 as major cellular fatty acids. The major polar
lipid in both strains was phosphatidylethanolamine. The
genomic G + C contents of strains KSM-R2A25T and KSMR2A30T
were 31.7 and 31.9%, respectively. Based on the polyphasic
taxonomic study presented here, strains KSM-R2A25T
and KSM-R2A30T represent novel species of the genus Flavobacterium,
for which the names Flavobacterium cyclinae sp.
nov and Flavobacterium channae sp. nov are proposed. The
type strains of F. cyclinae sp. nov and F. channae sp. nov
are KSM-R2A25T (= KCTC 82978T = JCM 34997T) and KSMR2A30T
(= KCTC 82979T = JCM 34998T), respectively.

Abstract
PDF

Three aerobic, Gram-negative, and rod-shaped bacterial strains,
designated strains G4M1T, SM13T, and L12M9T, were isolated
from the gut of Batillaria multiformis, Cellana toreuma, and
Patinopecten yessoensis collected from the Yellow Sea in South
Korea. All the strains grew optimally at 25°C, in the presence
of 2% (w/v) NaCl, and at pH 7. These three strains, which
belonged to the genus Polaribacter in the family Flavobacteriaceae,
shared < 98.8% in 16S rRNA gene sequence and < 86.68%
in whole-genome sequence with each other. Compared with
the type strains of Polaribacter, isolates showed the highest
sequence similarity to P. haliotis KCTC 52418T (< 98.68%),
followed by P. litorisediminis KCTC 52500T (< 98.13%). All
the strains contained MK-6 as their predominant menaquinone
and iso-C15:0 as their major fatty acid. Moreover, all the
strains had phosphatidylethanolamine as their polar lipid
component. In addition, strain G4M1T had two unidentified
lipids and three unidentified aminolipids, strain SM13T had
three unidentified lipids and three unidentified aminolipids,
and strain L12M9T had three unidentified lipids and one unidentified
aminolipid. The DNA G + C contents of strains
G4M1T, SM13T, and L12M9T were 31.0, 30.4, and 29.7 mol%,
respectively. Based on phenotypic, phylogenetic, chemotaxonomic,
and genotypic findings, strains G4M1T (= KCTC 82388T
= DSM 112372T), SM13T (= KCTC 82389T = DSM 112373T),
and L12M9T (= KCTC 62751T = DSM 112374T) were classified
into the genus Polaribacter as the type strains of novel
species, for which the names Polaribacter batillariae sp. nov.,
Polaribacter cellanae sp. nov., and Polaribacter pectinis sp.
nov., respectively, have been proposed.

Abstract
PDF
-
Phenotypic and genomic analyses were performed to characterize
two novel species, H23M54T and AMA3305T, isolated
from the faeces of the Oriental stork (Ciconia boyciana) and
the cinereous vulture (Aegypius monachus), respectively. Strains
H23M54T and AMA3305T showed the highest similarities of
16S rRNA gene sequences and complete genome sequences
with Ornithinimicrobium cavernae CFH 30183T (98.5% of 16S
rRNA gene sequence similarity and 82.1% of average nucleotide
identity, ANI) and O. pekingense DSM 21552T (98.5% of
16S rRNA gene sequence similarity and 82.3% of ANI), respectively.
Both strains were Gram-stain-positive, obligate aerobes,
non-motile, non-spore-forming, and coccoid- and rodshaped.
Strain H23M54T grew optimally at 25–30°C and pH
8.0 and in the presence of 1.5–2% (wt/vol) NaCl, while strain
AMA3305T grew optimally at 30°C and pH 7.0 and in the presence
of 1–3% (wt/vol) NaCl. Both strains had iso-C15:0, iso-
C16:0, and summed feature 9 (iso-C17:1 ω9c and/or C16:0 10-
methyl) as major cellular fatty acids. MK-8 (H4) was identified
as the primary respiratory quinone in both strains. Strains
H23M54T and AMA3305T possessed diphosphatidylglycerol
and phosphatidylglycerol as major polar lipids. Moreover,
strains H23M54T and AMA3305T commonly contained ribose
and glucose as major sugars and L-ornithine, L-alanine,
glycine, and aspartic acid as major amino acids. The polyphasic
taxonomic data indicate that strains H23M54T and AMA3305T
represent novel species of the genus Ornithinimicrobium. We
propose the names Ornithinimicrobium ciconiae sp. nov. and
Ornithinimicrobium avium sp. nov. for strains H23M54T (= KCTC 49151T = JCM 33221T) and AMA3305T (= KCTC
49180T = JCM 32873T), respectively.
