Phylogenomics reveals insights into the functional evolution of the genus Agrobacterium and enables the description of Agrobacterium divergens sp. nov
Syst Appl Microbiol. 2023 Apr 1;46(3):126420. doi: 10.1016/j.syapm.2023.126420. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe genus Agrobacterium was initially described as mainly phytopathogenic strains. Nowadays, the genus includes phytopathogenic and non-phytopathogenic bacteria that are distinctive among the Rhizobiaceae family. Recently we have isolated two closely related strains, LMG 31531T and LMG 31532, from soil and plant roots, respectively. Both strains differ from previously reported species based on the genomic and phenotypic data. A. arsenijevicii KFB 330T and A. fabacearum LMG 31642T showed the highest 16S rRNA similar...

Ancylobacter mangrovi sp. nov., a novel endophytic bacterium isolated form mangrove plant
Syst Appl Microbiol. 2023 Apr 1;46(3):126419. doi: 10.1016/j.syapm.2023.126419. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTwo novel strains GSK1Z-4-2T and MQZ15Z-1 were isolated from branches of mangrove plants collected from Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China. Both strains were Gram-negative, aerobic, non-flagellated and non-spore-forming bacteria. The comparison of 16S rRNA gene sequences initially indicated that the two strains were assigned to the genus Ancylobacter with sharing the highest similarity to Ancylobacter pratisalsi DSM 102029T (97.3%). The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, average nucleotide identity (ANI) and i...

Description of two cultivated and two uncultivated new Salinibacter species, one named following the rules of the bacteriological code: Salinibacter grassmerensis sp. nov.; and three named following the rules of the SeqCode: Salinibacter pepae sp. nov., Salinibacter abyssi sp. nov., and Salinibacter pampae sp. nov
Syst Appl Microbiol. 2023 Mar 15;46(3):126416. doi: 10.1016/j.syapm.2023.126416. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCurrent -omics methods allow the collection of a large amount of information that helps in describing the microbial diversity in nature. Here, and as a result of a culturomic approach that rendered the collection of thousands of isolates from 5 different hypersaline sites (in Spain, USA and New Zealand), we obtained 21 strains that represent two new Salinibacter species. For these species we propose the names Salinibacter pepae sp. nov. and Salinibacter grassmerensis sp. nov. (showing average nucleotide identity (...
