ABSTRACTThe Escherichia genus comprises four species and at least five lineages currently not assigned to any species, termed ‘Escherichia cryptic clades’. We isolated an Escherichia strain from an international traveller and resolved the complete DNA sequence of the chromosome and an IncI multi-drug resistance plasmid using Illumina and Nanopore whole-genome sequencing (WGS). Strain OPT1704T can be differentiated from existing Escherichia spp. using biochemical (VITEK2) and genomic tests (average nucleotide identity [ANI] and digital DNA:DNA hybridisation [dDDH]). Phylogenetic analysis based on alignment of 16S rRNA sequences and 682 concatenated core genes showed similar results. Our analysis further revealed that strain OPT1704T falls within Escherichia cryptic clade IV, and is closely related to cryptic clade III. Combining our analyses with publicly available WGS data of cryptic clades III and IV from Enterobase confirmed the close relationship between clades III and IV (>96% interclade ANI), warranting assignment of both clades to the same novel species. We propose E. ruysiae sp. nov. as a novel species, encompassing Escherichia cryptic clades III and IV (type strain OPT1704T = NCCB 100732T = NCTC 14359T).Author notesThe Genbank accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain OPT1704T is LR745848. The Genbank accession number for the complete genome sequence of strain OPT1704T is CABVLQ000000000.

A Gram-negative bacterium designated LA1T was isolated from water collected in hypersaline Lake Laysan on Laysan Island in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands. Cells occurred singly as fine rods to short filaments. Growth in 50 % strength marine broth occurred optimally when the medium contained 7·5–10 % (w/v) NaCl. The major fatty acids in LA1T grown at 15 and 30 °C were 12-methyl tetradecanoic acid and 13-methyl tetradecanoic acid, respectively. The nucleotide sequence of the 16S rRNA gene showed that LA1T belonged in the Cytophaga–Flavobacterium–Bacteroides (CFB) group in the domain Bacteria. The closest described neighbour in terms of 16S rRNA gene sequence identity was Psychroflexus torquis ACAM 623T (94·4 % over 1423 bases), an obligate psychrophile from Antarctic sea-ice. The G+C content of 35·0 mol% was consistent with this affiliation. Phenotypic and genotypic analyses, including DNA hybridization, indicated that LA1T could be assigned to the genus Psychroflexus but, based on significant differences, including growth at 43 °C, it constitutes a novel species, Psychroflexus tropicus sp. nov., for which LA1T (=ATCC BAA-734T=DSM 15496T) is the type strain.

Three exopolysaccharide-producing bacteria, designated strains DRP28T, DRP29 and DRP31, were isolated from the rhizoplane of Angelica sinensis from the Geumsan, Republic of Korea. Cells were straight rods, Gram reaction-negative, aerobic, non-motile, and catalase- and oxidase- positive. Flexirubin-type pigments were absent. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene indicated that these bacteria belong to the genus Mucilaginibacter in the phylum Bacteroidetes. 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities to strains of recognized species of the genus Mucilaginibacter were 93.8–97.4 %. The major fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0 and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH). The strains contained MK-7 as the major isoprenoid quinone. Strains DRP28T, DRP29 and DRP31 formed a single, distinct genomospecies with DNA G+C contents of 41.9–42.7 mol% and DNA hybridization values of 82.6–86.8 %; the strains exhibited DNA–DNA hybridization values of only 20.4–41.3 % with related species of the genus Mucilaginibacter. On the basis of evidence presented in this study, strains DRP28T, DRP29 and DRP31 were considered to represent a novel species of the genus Mucilaginibacter, for which the name Mucilaginibacter polysacchareus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DRP28T ( = KACC 15075T  = NBRC 107757T).

A yellow-pigmented, hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH)-degrading bacterial strain, P25T, was isolated from an HCH dump site located in the northern part of India. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that the strain belongs to the genus Sphingobium, as it showed highest sequence similarity to Sphingobium amiense IAM 15006T (97.7 %). The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between strain P25T and members of other species of the genus Sphingobium with validly published names ranged from 94.0 to 97.7 %. The DNA–DNA relatedness between strain P25T and Sphingobium amiense IAM 15006T and other related strains was found be less than 30 %, confirming it to represent a novel species. The DNA G+C content of strain P25T was 65 mol%. The polyamine profile showed the presence of spermidine. The predominant cellular fatty acids were summed feature 8 (18 : 1ω7c and/or 18 : 1ω6c; 48.3 %), 16 : 0 (13.7 %) and 14 : 0 2-OH (8.8 %). The polar lipid profile of strain P25T also corresponded to those reported for sphingomonads (phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidyldimethylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, sphingoglycolipid), supporting its identification as a member of the family Sphingomonadaceae. The results obtained from DNA–DNA hybridization and biochemical and physiological tests clearly distinguished strain P25T from closely related members of the genus Sphingobium. Thus, a novel species of the genus Sphingobium is proposed, Sphingobium quisquiliarum sp. nov. The type strain is P25T (=MTCC 9472T =CCM 7543T).

A halotolerant, facultatively alkaliphilic bacterium, designated CL-MP28T, was isolated from the surface of a sediment core sample collected at a depth of 2247 m in the Ulleung Basin of the East Sea, Korea. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain CL-MP28T revealed an affiliation with the genus Oceanobacillus. The sequence similarities between the isolate and type strains of members of the genus Oceanobacillus were in the range 95.0–96.0 %, indicating that strain CL-MP28T represented a novel species within the genus. The strain was found to be Gram-positive, rod-shaped and motile by means of peritrichous flagella and was shown to produce ellipsoidal spores. The strain was strictly aerobic and able to grow with NaCl at concentrations in the range 0–14 % (w/v) at pH 7.5. The strain grew at temperatures of 15–42 °C and at pH 6.5–9.5. The major fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0 (64.9 %), anteiso-C17 : 0 (11.9 %) and iso-C16 : 0 (7.7 %). The major isoprenoid quinone was MK-7. The DNA G+C content was 40.2 mol%. According to the 16S rRNA gene sequence, DNA–DNA relatedness and physiological data and the fatty acid composition, CL-MP28T could be assigned to the genus Oceanobacillus, but is distinguishable from the recognized species of this genus. Strain CL-MP28T therefore represents a novel species within the genus Oceanobacillus, for which the name Oceanobacillus profundus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CL-MP28T (=KCCM 42318T=DSM 18246T).

A Gram-negative, non-motile, coccobacilli-shaped bacterium, DS-48T, was isolated from soil from Dokdo, Korea, and its taxonomic position was investigated by means of a polyphasic study. Strain DS-48T grew optimally at 25 °C and pH 7.0–8.0 in the presence of 0.5 % (w/v) NaCl. It contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone and C18 : 1 ω7c and C18 : 1 2-OH as the major fatty acids. The DNA G+C content was 69.3 mol%. A phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain DS-48T fell within the genus Roseomonas, clustering with Roseomonas lacus TH-G33T (at a bootstrap confidence level of 100 %). The levels of similarity between the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain DS-48T and those of the type strains of recognized Roseomonas species were in the range 93.2–98.0 %. DNA–DNA relatedness data and differential phenotypic properties, together with the phylogenetic distinctiveness of DS-48T, revealed that this strain differs from recognized Roseomonas species. On the basis of phenotypic, phylogenetic and genetic data, therefore, strain DS-48T represents a novel species within the genus Roseomonas, for which the name Roseomonas terrae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DS-48T (=KCTC 12874T=JCM 14592T).

Abstract A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped and motile bacterium, named LAMW06T, was isolated from greenhouse soil in Beijing, China. In the 16S rRNA gene sequence comparison, strain LAMW06T had the highest similarity with Pseudomonas cuatrocienegasensis 1NT was 97.4%. Phylogenetic analysis base on the 16S rRNA and three housekeeping gene sequences (gyrB, rpoB and rpoD) indicated that LAMW06T represented a member of the genus Pseudomonas. The genome sequence size of the isolate was 5.5 Mb, with the DNA G+C content of 63.5 mol%. The average nucleotide identity and DNA–DNA hybridization values between strain LAMW06T and closely related members of Pseudomonas borbori R-20821T, Pseudomonas taeanensis MS-3T and Pseudomonas cuatrocienegasensis 1NT were 90.9%, 82.4%, 81.5 % and 43.0%, 25.9%, 24.6 % respectively. The major fatty acids contained summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω6c and/or C16:1 ω7c), C18:1 ω7c and C16:0. The primary respiratory quinone was ubiquinone-9. The main polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, six aminophospholipids, six phospholipids, one aminolipid and one glycolipid. According to the genotypic, phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic data, strain LAMW06T represents a novel species within the genus Pseudomonas, for which the name Pseudomonas tumuqiensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is LAMW06T (=GDMCC 1.2003T =KCTC 72829T).

AbstractA bacterial strain, designated WCA-9-b2, was isolated from the caecal content of an 18-week-old obese C57BL/6NTac male mouse. According to phenotypic analyses, the isolate is rod-shaped, Gram-positive, strictly anaerobic, spore-forming and non-motile under the conditions tested. Bacterial colonies were irregular and non-pigmented. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene indicated that the isolate belonged to the family Lachnospiraceae with Clostridium scindens ATTC 35704 (94.9% sequence identity) and Dorea formicigenerans ATCC 27755 (94.8%) being the closest relatives. Whole genome sequencing showed average nucleotide identity (ANI) ranging from 69.80–74.23% and percentage of conserved proteins (POCP) values < 50% against the nine closest relatives. The genome-based G+C content of genomic DNA was 44.4%. The predominant metabolic end products of glucose fermentation were acetate and succinate. Based on these data, we propose that strain WCA-9-b2 represents a novel species within a novel genus, for which the name Sporaefaciens musculi gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is WCA-9-b2T (=DSM 106039T = CCUG pending IDT).RepositoriesThe GenBank accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain WCA-9-b2T is MN756014, and the accession number for the genome assembly is PRJNA592877. Raw sequencing Illumina NextSeq (PRJEB35655) and ONT MinION (PRJEB35656) data can be accessed at EMBL-EBI.

A polyphasic taxonomic study of a halotolerant bacterium, isolated from sandy rhizospheric soil in Sarbandar, Persian Gulf, Iran, revealed that strain HM6T represents a novel species within the genus Nocardiopsis. Results of the 16S rRNA gene sequence comparison revealed that strain HM6T clustered with strains of the genus Nocardiopsis, showing the highest degree of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Nocardiopsis quinghaiensis (99.2 %), Nocardiopsis aegyptia (98.5 %) and Nocardiopsis halotolerans (98.3 %). However, DNA–DNA hybridization studies with these type strains revealed less than 39.6 % similarity. Rather than genotypic differences, there are some phenotypic discrepancies between strain HM6T and closely related species of the genus Nocardiopsis. Main morphological and chemotaxonomical features of strain HM6T include: (i) growth characteristics, i.e. the formation of a scant light-yellow to white aerial mycelium and the typical zig-zag form of the hyphae, which fragment during ageing into smooth rod-shaped spores; (ii) the presence of meso-diaminopimelic acid and glucose plus ribose in whole-cell hydrolysates; (iii) the presence of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylinositol, together with three unknown Nocardiopsis-specific phospholipids (close to diphosphatidylglycerol in position) in polar lipid extracts; (iv) the presence of the major menaquinones MK-10(H0), MK-10(H2) and MK-9(H0) in the non-polar fraction; (v) the presence of iso/anteiso-branched plus 10-methyl-branched fatty acids, showing the diagnostic combination for species of the genus Nocardiopsis of iso-16 : 0 (31.1 %), anteiso-17 : 0 (19.2 %), 10-methyl-17 : 0 (5.8 %) and tuberculostearic acid (8.8 %); and (vi) the absence of mycolic acids. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain HM6T represents a distinct taxon within the genus Nocardiopsis. Based upon genotypic and phenotypic differences from other members of the genus, a novel species, Nocardiopsis sinuspersici sp. nov., is proposed. The type strain is HM6T (=UTMC 00102T =DSM 45277T =CCUG 57624T).

A novel strain, designated KP01T, belonging to the class Sphingobacteria (phylum Bacteroidetes) was isolated from soil in South Korea and was characterized taxonomically using a polyphasic approach. The strain was found to comprise Gram-negative, aerobic, non-motile, non-spore-forming rods. A phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the strain belonged to the genus Chitinophaga but was clearly separated from established Chitinophaga species. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities between KP01T and type strains of established Chitinophaga species ranged from 90.3 to 95.7 %. Phenotypic and chemotaxonomic data (major menaquinone, MK-7; major fatty acids, iso-C15 : 0 and C16 : 1 ω5c; major hydroxy fatty acid, C17 : 0 iso 3-OH) supported the affiliation of strain KP01T with the genus Chitinophaga. Therefore strain KP01T represents a novel species, for which the name Chitinophaga terrae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KP01T (=KCTC 12836T =LMG 24015T).
