Pelagibacterium flavum sp. nov., Isolated from Soil Sample

Curr Microbiol. 2024 Jan 23;81(3):72. doi: 10.1007/s00284-023-03583-8.ABSTRACTA Gram-stain-negative, yellow, moist and circular, aerobic, motile, and rod-shaped bacterium, designated YIM 151497T, was isolated from soil sample collected from Blue-Bridge, Weizhou Island, Guangxi province, China. Classification using a polyphasic approach suggested that strain YIM 151497T belonged to the genus Pelagibacterium, and was closely relevant to Pelagibacterium nitratireducens JLT2005T (98.8%), Pelagibacterium halotolerans CGMCC 1.7692T (98.7%), Pelagibacterium lixinzhangensis H64T (98.1%), and Pelagibacterium luteolum CGMCC 1.10267T (97.1%). The growth ranges of temperature, pH, and NaCl were 4-40 ℃, pH 4.0-10.0, and 0-7% NaCl, respectively. It was positive for catalase and oxidase. The primary respiratory quinone was Q-10. The elemental fatty acids were Summed Feature 8 (constituting C18:1ω7c and/or C18:1ω6c), C19:0 cyclo ω8c, C16:0, and C18:1ω7c 11-methyl. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, and three unidentified glycolipids. The DNA G+C content based on the complete genome sequence was 60.7 mol%. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) between strain YIM 151497T and species of Pelagibacterium were in the ranges of 73.9-86.3% and 19.7-31.3%, respectively. The Average Amino Acid Identity (AAI) between strain YIM 151497T and species of Pelagibacterium were in the ranges of 68.8-88.8%. On the basis of th...
