Pseudoduganella rhizocola sp. nov., Isolated from Rhizospheric Soil
摘要
A novel bacterial strain, SM-13 T was isolated from the rhizospheric soil of Epipremnum aureum (Jade Pothos) sampled in Suwon, Republic of Korea. The isolate was Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, motile, rod-shaped, cream-coloured, oxidase- and catalase-positive. Strain SM-13 T grew at the range of 15–37 °C (optimum, 25 °C), at pH 6.0–9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0), and in the presence of 0–0.5% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0%). Phylogenetic analysis based on genome and 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain SM-13 T was affiliated with the family Oxalobacteriaceae and most closely related to Pseudoduganella humi THG S6-8 T (97.8%), Pseudoduganella violacea CAVIOT (97.7%), Pseudoduganella buxea A9T (97.6%), Pseudoduganella dura 16 T (97.5%), Pseudoduganella umbonata LP01T (97.5%), and Pseudoduganella lurida D5T (97.4%). The major ubiquinone was Q-8. The major identified polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG), amino lipids (AL), and unknown lipids (L1, L2). The major fatty acids of SM-13 T were summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω7c/C16:1 ω6c) (51.9%) and C16: 0 (18.7%). The novel strain SM-13 T has a draft genome size of 5,401,088 bp (27 contigs), annotated with 4,880 protein-coding genes, 59 tRNA and 2 rRNA genes. The genomic DNA G + C (%) content was 64. Hence, the strain SM-13 T represent a novel species within the genus Pseudoduganella, for which the name Pseudoduganella rhizocola sp. nov. is proposed. The Type strain is SM-13 T (= KCTC 8734 T = TBRC 19389 T = KEMB 24220 T). The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession number for the complete 16S rRNA gene and genome sequence of the type strain SM-13 T is PQ198503 and JBJQIK000000000.
