Diamino Acid

A Gram-stain-positive, rod-shaped, non-sporulating, motile and moderately halophilic bacterium, designated strain H96B60T, was isolated from a saline soil sample of the Qaidam basin, China. The strain was facultatively anaerobic. Major end products formed from glucose fermentation were acetate, ethanol and lactic acid. The cell-wall peptidoglycan contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid. The isoprenoid quinone component was menaquinone-6 (MK-6). The predominant cellular fatty acids were C16 : 0, anteiso-C13 : 0 and anteiso-C15 : 0. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain H96B60T was 36.2 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on comparative 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain H96B60T represented a novel phyletic lineage within the family Bacillaceae and was related most closely to Halolactibacillus species (96.1–96.4 % similarity). Based on the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data presented, strain H96B60T is considered to represent a novel species of a new genus, for which the name Streptohalobacillus salinus gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Streptohalobacillus salinus is H96B60T ( = DSM 22440T  = CGMCC 1.7733T).

Moderately Halophilic Bacterium

An aerobic, Gram-stain-positive, endospore-forming, rod-shaped and moderately halophilic strain SKP4-6T, was isolated from shrimp paste (Ka-pi) collected from Samut Sakhon Province, Thailand. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that strain SKP4-6T belonged to the genus Halobacillus and was most closely related to Halobacillus salinus JCM 11546T (98.6 %), Halobacillus locisalis KCTC 3788T (98.6 %) and Halobacillus yeomjeoni KCTC 3957T (98.6 %) based on 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity. The digital DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH) and average nucleotide identity (ANI) values between strain SKP4-6T and its related species were 18.2–19.3 % and 69.84–84.51 %, respectively, which were lower than the threshold recommended for species delineation. The strain grew optimally at 30–40 °C, at pH 7.0 and with 10–15 % (w/v) NaCl. It contained l-Orn–d-Asp in the cell wall peptidoglycan. The DNA G+C content was 44.8 mol%. The major fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. The predominant isoprenoid quinone was MK-7. Phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol were present as major polar lipids. Based on this polyphasic approach, digital DNA–DNA relatedness and ANI values, strain SKP4-6T represents a novel species of the genus Halobacillus , for which the name Halobacillus fulvus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SKP4-6T (=JCM 32624T=TISTR 2595T).
