A novel marine bacterium, strain KMD 001T, was isolated from the starfish Asterias amurensis, which inhabits the East Sea of Korea. Strain KMD 001T was aerobic, light-yellow pigmented and Gram-stain-negative. Analyses of the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain KMD 001T represents a novel lineage within the class Gammaproteobacteria. Strain KMD 001T is closely related to the genera Endozoicomonas and Zooshikella, which belong to the family Hahellaceae and to the order Oceanospirillales. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain KMD 001T shows similarities of approximately 91.8–94.6 % with the above-mentioned genera. The DNA G+C content of KMD 001T is 47.6 mol%. It contains Q-9 as the major isoprenoid quinone. The predominant fatty acids were determined to be anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 0, iso-C14 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0. Strain KMD 001T should be assigned to a novel bacterial genus within the class Gammaproteobacteria based on its phylogenetic, chemotaxonomic and phenotypic characteristics. The name Kistimonas asteriae gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KMD 001T (=KCCM 90076T =JCM 15607T).

Strain HHS 31T, a Gram-positive, motile, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming, alkaliphilic bacterium, was isolated from the melt water of a glacier. Phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics indicate that strain HHS 31T is related to species of the genus Exiguobacterium. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities between HHS 31T and strains of known species confirm that it is closely related to members of the genus Exiguobacterium (93–99 %) and that it exhibits >97 % similarity with Exiguobacterium acetylicum DSM 20416T (98.9 %), Exiguobacterium antarcticum DSM 14480T (98.0 %), Exiguobacterium oxidotolerans JCM 12280T (97.9 %) and Exiguobacterium undae DSM 14481T (97.4 %). Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence further confirms the affiliation of HHS 31T with the genus Exiguobacterium. However, the levels of DNA–DNA relatedness between HHS 31T and E. oxidotolerans JCM 12280T, E. acetylicum DSM 20416T, E. undae DSM 14481T and E. antarcticum DSM 14480T are 50, 63, 67 and 28 %, respectively. Strain HHS 31T also differs from these four closely related species in terms of a number of phenotypic traits. The phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data suggest that HHS 31T merits the status of a novel species, for which the name Exiguobacterium indicum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HHS 31T (=LMG 23471T=IAM 15368T).

Bacterial strain PETP02T was isolated from nodules of Trifolium pratense growing in a Spanish soil. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that this strain represents a member of the genus Phyllobacterium. However, divergence found with the 16S rRNA gene sequence of the single recognized species of this genus, Phyllobacterium myrsinacearum, indicated that strain PETP02T belongs to a different species. The results of DNA–DNA hybridization, phenotypic tests and fatty acid analyses confirmed that this strain represents a novel species of the genus Phyllobacterium, for which the name Phyllobacterium trifolii sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is PETP02T (=LMG 22712T=CECT 7015T). This strain was strictly aerobic and used several carbohydrates as carbon source. It was not able to reduce nitrate. Aesculin hydrolysis was negative. It did not produce urease, arginine dihydrolase, gelatinase or β-galactosidase. The DNA G+C content was 56·4 mol%. The nodD gene of this strain showed a sequence closely related to those of strains able to nodulate Lupinus. Infectivity tests showed that this strain is able to produce nodules in both Trifolium repens and Lupinus albus.

A Gram-negative, strictly aerobic bacterium, designated CL-ES53T, was isolated from surface water of the East Sea in Korea. Cells of strain CL-ES53T were short rods and motile by means of monopolar flagella. Strain CL-ES53T grew with 4–21 % NaCl (optimum 10 %) and at 5–40 °C (optimum 25 °C) and pH 5.2–8.8 (optimum pH 6.3–7.2). The major isoprenoid quinone was Q-8. The major fatty acids were C18 : 1 ω7c (42.0 %), C18 : 1 ω9c (14.8 %) and C14 : 0 (9.4 %). The genomic DNA G+C content was 64.9 mol%. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain CL-ES53T revealed that it was a member of the genus Salinisphaera and most closely related to Salinisphaera shabanensis E1L3A T (96.9 % sequence similarity) and Salinisphaera hydrothermalis EPR70T (93.8 %). Phylogenetic analyses based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that strain CL-ES53T formed a robust cluster with S. shabanensis E1L3A T. Although the 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between strain CL-ES53T and S. shabanensis E1L3A T was rather high (96.9 %), DNA–DNA relatedness between these strains was 12 %, suggesting that they represent genomically distinct species. Strain CL-ES53T was differentiated from S. shabanensis E1L3A T and S. hydrothermalis EPR70T on the basis of optimum temperature for growth and certain phenotypic characteristics. The phylogenetic analysis and physiological and chemotaxonomic data show that strain CL-ES53T should be classified in the genus Salinisphaera within a novel species, for which the name Salinisphaera dokdonensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CL-ES53T (=KCCM 90064T =DSM 19549T).
