gen. nov., sp. nov., an alkaliphilic bacterium of the family ‘’, phylum Free

Abstract

A novel Gram-negative, rod-shaped, non-motile bacterium, designated strain LW7, was isolated from a water sample collected at a depth of 4.5 m from Lonar Lake in Buldhana district, Maharastra, India. The cell suspension was dark-reddish orange due to the presence of carotenoids. The fatty acids were dominated by large amounts of iso-C (59.6 %) and iso-C 3-OH (8.9 %). Strain LW7 contained MK-4 and MK-5 as the major respiratory quinones and phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine as the major phospholipids. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that , a member of family ‘’ (phylum ), is the closest related species, with a sequence similarity of 94.0 % to the type strain. Other members of the family ‘’ had sequence similarities of <93.3 %. Based on the above-mentioned phenotypic and phylogenetic characteristics, strain LW7 is proposed as a representative of a new genus and species, gen. nov., sp. nov. The type strain of is LW7 (=CCUG 57665 =JCM 15946 =NCCB 100279). The genomic DNA G+C of strain LW7 is 49 mol%.
