A Gram-stain-negative, facultatively aerobic, rod-shaped, motile by gliding and pink-pigmented bacterial strain, designated ELS1360T, was isolated from a lake sediment sample collected in Inner Mongolia, PR China. Strain ELS1360T grew optimally at 33 °C, at pH 6.5–7.0 and without NaCl. Strain ELS1360T exhibited 97.3, 97.1 and 96.9 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities to Hymenobacter aquatilis HMF3095T, Hymenobacter luteus JCM 30328T and Hymenobacter latericoloratus JCM 30327T, respectively, and 90.4–96.9 % to other members of the genus Hymenobacter . Results of phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain ELS1360T belonged to the genus Hymenobacter and clustered with H. luteus JCM 30328T and H. latericoloratus JCM 30327T. The predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C15:0, summed feature 3 and C16:1ω5c. Strain ELS1360T contained MK-7 as the sole menaquinone. The major polar lipids contained phosphatidylethanolamine and two unidentified lipids. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain ELS1360T was 57.1 mol%. Based on the results of our phylogenetic, phenotypic, genotypic and chemotaxonomic analyses, it is concluded that strain ELS1360T represents a novel species within the genus Hymenobacter , for which the name Hymenobacter sediminis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is ELS1360T (=KCTC 62449T=MCCC 1H00319T).

Parvularcula flava was proposed as a novel member of genus Parvularcula in 2016. Some time earlier, Aquisalinus flavus has been proposed as a novel species of a novel genus named Aquisalinus . When comparing the 16S rRNA gene sequences of type strains P. flava NH6-79T and A. flavus D11M-2T, they showed 97.9 % sequence identity, much higher than the sequence identities 92.7–94.3 % between P. flava NH6-79T and type strains in the genus Parvularcula , indicating that the later proposed novel taxon Parvularcula flava need reclassification. The phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences and genome sequences both showed that P. flava NH6-79T and A. flavus D11M-2T formed a separated branch away from strains in the genera Parvularcula , Marinicaulis and Amphiplicatus . The average amino acid identity and average nucleotide identity values of P. flava NH6-79T and A. flavus D11M-2T were 87.9 and 85.0 %, respectively, much higher than the values between P. flava NH6-79T and other closely related type strains (54.3 %–58.1 % and 68.6–70.4 %, respectively). P. flava NH6-79T and A. flavus D11M-2T also contained summed feature 8 (C18 : 1  ω6c and/or C18 : 1  ω7c) and C16 : 0 as major fatty acids, distinguishing them from other closely related taxa. Based on the results of the phylogenetic, comparative genomic and phenotypic analyses, Parvularcula flava should be reclassified as Aquisalinus luteolus nom. nov. and the description of genus Aquisalinus is emended.

Emended Description

Strains 1-1NT and GYSZ_1T were isolated from marine sediments collected from the coast of Xiamen, PR China. Cells of the two strains were Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped or slightly curved. Strain 1-1NT was non-motile, whereas strain GYSZ_1T was motile by means of one polar flagellum. The temperature, pH and salinity concentration ranges for growth of 1-1NT were 10–45 °C (optimum 30 °C), pH 5.5–8.0 (optimum 7.0) and 0–90 g l−1 NaCl (optimum 50 g l−1), while the growth of GYSZ_1T occurred at 4–45 °C (optimum 33 °C), pH 5.0–8.5 (optimum 6.5) and 5–90 g l−1 NaCl (optimum 20 g l−1). The two novel isolates were obligate chemolithoautotrophs capable of growth using hydrogen, thiosulfate, sulfide or elemental sulfur as the sole energy source, and nitrate, elemental sulfur or molecular oxygen as an electron acceptor. The major fatty acids of 1-1NT were C16 : 1ω7c, C16 : 0, C18 : 1ω7c and C18 : 0, while the predominant fatty acids of strain GYSZ_1T were C16 : 1ω7c, C16 : 0, C18 : 1ω7c and C14 : 0 3-OH. The DNA G+C contents of 1-1NT and GYSZ_1T were 34.5 mol% and 33.2 mol%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that 1-1NT and GYSZ_1T represented members of the genus Sulfurimonas , with the highest sequence similarities to Sulfurimonas crateris SN118T (97.4 %) and Sulfurimonas denitrificans DSM 1251T (94.7 %), respectively. However, 1-1NT and GYSZ_1T shared 95.5 % similarity of 16S rRNA gene sequences, representing different species of the genus Sulfurimonas . On the basis of the physiological properties and the results of phylogenetic analyses, including average nucleotide identity and in silico DNA–DNA hybridization values, strains 1-1NT and GYSZ_1T represent two novel species within the genus Sulfurimonas , for which the names Sulfurimonas xiamenensis sp. nov. and Sulfurimonas lithotrophica sp. nov. are proposed, with the type strains 1-1NT (=MCCC 1A14514T=KCTC 15851T) and GYSZ_1T (=MCCC 1A14739T=KCTC 15853T), respectively. Our results also justify an emended description of the genus Sulfurimonas .

To investigate the biodiversity of bacteria in the spring water of the Chengcing Lake Park in Taiwan, a Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, non-motile, non-spore-forming and aerobic bacterial strain, designated strain Chen16-4T, was isolated and characterized in a taxonomic study using a polyphasic approach. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the closest relatives of strain Chen16-4T were Sphingobium amiense YTT, Sphingobium yanoikuyae GIFU 9882T and Sphingobium scionense WP01T, with sequence similarities of 97.6, 97.1 and 97.0 %, respectively. A phylogenetic tree obtained with 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain Chen16-4T and these three closest relatives formed an independent phylogenetic clade within the genus Sphingobium . The polar lipid pattern, the presence of spermidine and ubiquinone Q-10, the predominance of C18 : 1ω7c in the cellular fatty acid profile and the DNA G+C content also supported affiliation of the isolate to the genus Sphingobium . The DNA–DNA relatedness of strain Chen16-4T with respect to recognized species of the genus Sphingobium was less than 70 %. On the basis of the genotypic, chemotaxonomic and phenotypic data, strain Chen16-4T represents a novel species in the genus Sphingobium , for which the name Sphingobium fontiphilum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Chen16-4T ( = BCRC 80308T = LMG 26342T = KCTC 23559T).

Two yellow-pigmented bacterial strains (100T and C26T), showing 98.4 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to each other and isolated from a chicken in Germany and as a contaminant from an agar plate of a rhizosphere sample in Alabama, were studied by using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Cells of both isolates were rod-shaped and stained Gram-negative. A comparison of the 16S rRNA gene sequences of the two organisms with the sequences of the type strains of the most closely related species of the genus Chryseobacterium showed the highest sequence similarities of strains 100T and C26T to the type strains of Chryseobacterium joostei (respectively 97.5 and 98.2 %), C. viscerum (96.6, 97.8 %), C. gleum (97.1, 97.7 %), C. arthrosphaerae (97.3%, 97.7 %), C. indologenes (97.2, 97.7 %), C. tructae (96.6, 97.6 %), C. jejuense (97.0, 97.6 %) and C. oncorhynchi (96.3, 97.5 %); 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities to members of all other species of the genus Chryseobacterium were below 97.5 %. The fatty acid profiles of both strains consisted of the major fatty acids iso-C15 : 0, summed feature 3 (iso-C15 : 0 2-OH and/or C16 : 1ω7c), iso-C17 : 1ω9c and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH, but also showed slight differences (absence or presence of C16 : 0 3-OH and iso-C15 : 1 F). DNA–DNA hybridizations between the two strains and between the novel strains and the type strains of C. joostei , C. indologenes , C. jejuense , C. tructae and C. viscerum resulted in relatedness values clearly below 70 %. These DNA–DNA hybridization results and the differentiating biochemical and chemotaxonomic properties showed that both strains 100T and C26T represent novel species, for which the names Chryseobacterium gallinarum sp. nov. (type strain 100T = LMG 27808T = CCM 8493T) and Chryseobacterium contaminans sp. nov. (type strain C26T = LMG 27810T = CCM 8492T) are proposed.

During a study of endophytic bacteria from coastal dune plants, a bacterial strain, designated YC6881T, was isolated from the root of Rosa rugosa collected from the coastal dune areas of Namhae Island, Korea. The bacterium was found to be Gram-staining-negative, motile, halophilic and heterotrophic with a single polar flagellum. Strain YC6881T grew at temperatures of 4–37 °C (optimum, 28–32 °C), at pH 6.0–9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0–8.0), and at NaCl concentrations in the range of 0–7.5 % (w/v) (optimum, 4–5 % NaCl). Strain YC6881T was catalase- and oxidase-positive and negative for nitrate reduction. According to phylogenetic analysis using 16S rRNA gene sequences, strain YC6881T belonged to the genus Rhizobium and showed the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 96.9 % to Rhizobium rosettiformans , followed by Rhizobium borbori (96.3 %), Rhizobium radiobacter (96.1 %), Rhizobium daejeonense (95.9 %), Rhizobium larrymoorei (95.6 %) and Rhizobium giardinii (95.4 %). Phylogenetic analysis of strain YC6881T by recA, atpD, glnII and 16S–23S intergenic spacer (IGS) sequences all confirmed the phylogenetic arrangements obtained by using 16S rRNA gene sequences. Cross-nodulation tests showed that strain YC6881T was a symbiotic bacterium that nodulated Vigna unguiculata and Pisum sativum. The major components of the cellular fatty acids were C18 : 1ω7c (53.7 %), C19 : 0 cyclo ω8c (12.6 %) and C12 : 0 (8.1 %). The DNA G+C content was 52.8 mol%. Phenotypic and physiological tests with respect to carbon source utilization, antibiotic resistance, growth conditions, phylogenetic analyses of housekeeping genes recA, atpD and glnII, and fatty acid composition could be used to discriminate strain YC6881T from other species of the genus Rhizobium in the same sublineage. Based on the results obtained in this study, strain YC6881T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Rhizobium , for which the name Rhizobium halophytocola sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YC6881T ( = KACC 13775T = DSM 21600T).

A pink-pigmented, facultatively methylotrophic bacterium, strain 35aT, was isolated from the leaves of Oxalis corniculata. Cells of strain 35aT were Gram-reaction-negative, motile, non-spore-forming rods. The highest 16S rRNA gene pairwise sequence similarities for strain 35aT were found with the strains of Methylobacterium iners 5317S-33T (96.7 %), ‘Methylobacterium soli’ YIM 48816 (96.6 %) and Methylobacterium jeotgali S2R03-9T (96.3 %). 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities with the type strains of all other recognized species of the genus Methylobacterium were below 96 %. Major cellular fatty acids were C18 : 1ω7c, C18 : 0 and C16 : 0. The results of DNA–DNA hybridization experiments, analysis of cpn60 gene sequences, fatty acid profiles, whole-cell MALDI-TOF/MS spectral pattern analysis, and physiological and biochemical tests allowed genotypic and phenotypic differentiation of strain 35aT from its nearest phylogenetic neighbours. Strain 35aT is therefore considered to represent a novel species within the genus Methylobacterium , for which the name Methylobacterium oxalidis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 35aT ( = DSM 24028T = NBRC 107715T).

The 16S rRNA gene sequences of Pasteurella lymphangitidis , Yersinia pseudotuberculosis and Yersinia pestis were found to be identical and multilocus sequence analysis could not discriminate between the three species. The susceptibility to a Y. pseudotuberculosis phage and the presence of the Y. pseudotuberculosis -specific invasin gene in P. lymphangitidis indicate that the latter should be reclassified as Y. pseudotuberculosis .

A taxonomic study was carried out on strain SH27T, which was isolated from seawater collected around Xiaoshi Island, PR China. Cells of strain SH27T were Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped, orange-pigmented and grew at 15–37 °C (optimum, 28 °C), at pH 6.0–8.0 (pH 7.0) and in 1.0–7.0 % (w/v) NaCl (2.0–3.0 %). The isolate was positive for catalase, but negative for nitrate reduction, oxidase, indole production and urease. Carotenoid pigment was produced. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene placed strain SH27T in the genus Dokdonia with the closest relative being Dokdonia donghaensis KCTC 12391T, exhibiting 96.7 % 16S rRNA gene pairwise similarity. The results of genomic comparisons, including average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization, showed 72.9 and 19.2 % identity to D. donghaensis KCTC 12391T, respectively. The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 1 G and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine and two unidentified lipids. Menaquinone-6 was the only respiratory quinone. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 32.9 mol%. On the basis of the phenotypic and phylogenetic data, strain SH27T represents a novel species of the genus Dokdonia , for which the name Dokdonia sinensis sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain SH27T (MCCC 1H00358T=CCTCC AB 2018323T=KCTC 62962T).
