Loktanella agnita sp. nov. and Loktanella rosea sp. nov., from the north-west Pacific Ocean.

One whitish and four pinkish strains of Gram-negative, non-motile, aerobic bacteria were isolated from sea-water and sediment samples collected in Chazhma Bay (Sea of Japan, Pacific Ocean). Analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that these strains belonged to the 'Alphaproteobacteria', having highest sequence similarity of about 94-97% with species of the genus Loktanella. None of the strains degraded gelatin, casein, chitin, agar, DNA or starch and they had limited ability to utilize carbon sources. The four pinkish strains, Fg36(T), Fg1, Fg116 and Fg117, degraded Tween 80. Sea-water strain R10SW5(T) grew at 3-6% NaCl and a temperature range of 8-35 degrees C, whilst strains Fg36(T), Fg1, Fg116 and Fg117 grew at NaCl concentrations of 1-12% and a temperature range of 4-35 degrees C. Phosphatidylglycerol (58/79%), diphosphatidylglycerol (11/6%) and phosphatidylcholine (28/22%) were the major phospholipids. The predominant fatty acids were 16:0 (12.2/8.6%) and 18:1omega7 (76.6/68.4%). The DNA G+C content of strain R10SW5(T) was 59.1 mol% and those of the four pinkish strains ranged from 60.5 to 61.8 mol%. Based on the results of phenotypic, genotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic investigation, two novel species, Loktanella agnita sp. nov. and Loktanella rosea sp. nov., are proposed. The type strains are R10SW5(T) (=KMM 3788(T)=CIP 107883(T)) and Fg36(T) (=KMM 6003(T)=CIP 107851(T)=LMG 22534(T)), respectively.

Desulfonatronum cooperativum sp. nov., a novel hydrogenotrophic, alkaliphilic, sulfate-reducing bacterium, from a syntrophic culture growing on acetate.

A novel alkaliphilic, sulfate-reducing bacterium was isolated from a syntrophic acetate-decomposing community enriched from samples of the soda lake Khadin, Tuva, Russia; the isolate was designated strain Z-7999(T). Cells of strain Z-7999(T) were vibrioid, Gram-negative, 0.4-0.5 x 1.0-2.5 microm and motile by means of a polar flagellum. The temperature range for growth was 15-40 degrees C, with an optimum of 35-38 degrees C. The pH range for growth was 6.7-10.3, with an optimum of pH 8.0-9.0. The NaCl concentration range for growth was 1-80 g l(-1). The novel isolate was obligately anaerobic, was alkaliphilic with a broad pH range and had an obligate requirement for carbonate ions in the growth medium. In the presence of sulfate as electron acceptor, it grew with hydrogen, formate and lactate. It was not able to ferment sugars, organic acids, amino acids or peptides. During growth on formate, strain Z-7999(T) reduced sulfite and thiosulfate to sulfide. It was able to grow lithoheterotrophically with sulfate and formate when acetate was added as a carbon source for biosynthesis of biomass. The G + C content of the genomic DNA of strain Z-7999(T) was 56.5 mol%. Results of comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analyses revealed that strain Z-7999(T) was part of the delta-Proteobacteria and clustered with other members of the genus Desulfonatronum (similarity values of 95.2 and 95.3 % to Desulfonatronum lacustre and Desulfonatronum thiodismutans, respectively). DNA-DNA hybridization with D. lacustre was 37 %. On the basis of physiological and phylogenetic data, it is proposed that strain Z-7999(T) (= DSM 16749(T) = VKM B-2329(T)) should be placed in the genus Desulfonatronum as a representative of a novel species, Desulfonatronum cooperativum sp. nov.

Alteromonas addita sp. nov.

On the basis of phenotypic, genotypic characteristics and analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences, a novel species belonging to the genus Alteromonas is described. A non-pigmented, motile, Gram-negative bacterium designated R10SW13(T) was isolated from sea water samples collected in Chazhma Bay (Sea of Japan, Pacific Ocean). The novel organism mainly grew between 4 degrees C and 37 degrees C, was neutrophilic and slightly halophilic, tolerating up to 10 % NaCl. Strain R10SW13(T) was haemolytic and was able to degrade starch and Tween 80 and to degrade gelatin and agar weakly, but did not degrade casein. Phosphatidylethanolamine (44.3 +/- 0.9 %) and phosphatidylglycerol (55.7 +/ -0.9 %) were the predominant phospholipids. The major fatty acids formed were typical for the genus Alteromonas, including 16 : 0, 16 : 1omega-7 and 18 : 1omega-7. The G + C content of the DNA was 43.4 mol%. DNA-DNA hybridization experiments showed 38-53 % binding with the DNAs of type strains of phylogenetically related species of the genus Alteromonas, namely: Alteromonas macleodii, Alteromonas marina, Alteromonas stellipolaris, Alteromonas litorea, 'Alteromonas macleodii subsp. fijiensis' and 'Alteromonas infernus'. Based on these results, a novel species, Alteromonas addita sp. nov., is proposed, with strain R10SW13(T) (=KMM 3600(T) = KCTC 12195(T) = LMG 22532(T)) as the type strain.

Roseivirga echinicomitans sp. nov., a novel marine bacterium isolated from the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus intermedius, and emended description of the genus Roseivirga.

A novel strictly aerobic, heterotrophic, pink-pigmented, non-motile, Gram-negative, oxidase-, catalase-, beta-galactosidase- and alkaline phosphatase-positive marine bacterium, designated strain KMM 6058(T), was isolated from the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus intermedius and studied using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The G+C content of the DNA of the isolate was 41.3 mol%. The predominant fatty acids were i15:1, i15:0, a15:0 and i17:0 3-OH. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain KMM 6058(T) formed a monophyletic clade with Roseivirga ehrenbergii, with 99% similarity. On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, genotypic and phylogenetic characteristics, the novel bacterium should be assigned to the genus Roseivirga as Roseivirga echinicomitans sp. nov. The type strain is KMM 6058(T) (=KCTC 12370(T)=LMG 22587(T)).

Desulfotomaculum carboxydivorans sp. nov., a novel sulfate-reducing bacterium capable of growth at 100% CO.

A moderately thermophilic, anaerobic, chemolithoheterotrophic, sulfate-reducing bacterium, strain CO-1-SRB(T), was isolated from sludge from an anaerobic bioreactor treating paper mill wastewater. Cells were Gram-positive, motile, spore-forming rods. The temperature range for growth was 30-68 degrees C, with an optimum at 55 degrees C. The NaCl concentration range for growth was 0-17 g l(-1); there was no change in growth rate until the NaCl concentration reached 8 g l(-1). The pH range for growth was 6.0-8.0, with an optimum of 6.8-7.2. The bacterium could grow with 100% CO in the gas phase. With sulfate, CO was converted to H(2) and CO(2) and part of the H(2) was used for sulfate reduction; without sulfate, CO was completely converted to H(2) and CO(2). With sulfate, strain CO-1-SRB(T) utilized H(2)/CO(2), pyruvate, glucose, fructose, maltose, lactate, serine, alanine, ethanol and glycerol. The strain fermented pyruvate, lactate, glucose and fructose. Yeast extract was necessary for growth. Sulfate, thiosulfate and sulfite were used as electron acceptors, whereas elemental sulfur and nitrate were not. A phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences placed strain CO-1-SRB(T) in the genus Desulfotomaculum, closely resembling Desulfotomaculum nigrificans DSM 574(T) and Desulfotomaculum sp. RHT-3 (99 and 100% similarity, respectively). However, the latter strains were completely inhibited above 20 and 50% CO in the gas phase, respectively, and were unable to ferment CO, lactate or glucose in the absence of sulfate. DNA-DNA hybridization of strain CO-1-SRB(T) with D. nigrificans and Desulfotomaculum sp. RHT-3 showed 53 and 60% relatedness, respectively. On the basis of phylogenetic and physiological features, it is suggested that strain CO-1-SRB(T) represents a novel species within the genus Desulfotomaculum, for which the name Desulfotomaculum carboxydivorans is proposed. This is the first description of a sulfate-reducing micro-organism that is capable of growth under an atmosphere of pure CO with and without sulfate. The type strain is CO-1-SRB(T) (=DSM 14880(T)=VKM B-2319(T)).

Pseudomonas xanthomarina sp. nov., a novel bacterium isolated from marine ascidian.

Two Pseudomonas-like yellow-orange-pigmented non-fluorescent denitrifying strains KMM 235 and KMM 1447T were isolated from marine ascidian specimens and investigated by a polyphasic approach to clarify their taxonomic status. On the basis of 16S rDNA gene sequence data the new isolates clustered with the Pseudomonas stutzeri species group with sequence similarities of >98%. The results of DNA-DNA hybridization and biochemical characterization showed genetic and phenotypic distinction between strains KMM 235 and KMM 1447T and from the other validly described Pseudomonas species. Strain KMM 235 was found to be closely related to the type strain of Pseudomonas stutzeri in their phenotypic and genetic characteristics and represented, probably, a new P. stutzeri genomovar. It is proposed that strain KMM 1447T be classified as a new species of the genus Pseudomonas, Pseudomonas xanthomarina sp. nov., with the type strain KMM 1447T (=JCM 12468T=NRIC 0617T=CCUG 46543T).

Brevibacterium celere sp. nov., isolated from degraded thallus of a brown alga.

Two whitish yellow, Gram-positive, non-motile, aerobic bacteria were isolated from enrichment culture during degradation of the thallus of the brown alga Fucus evanescens. The bacteria studied were chemo-organotrophic, mesophilic and grew well on nutrient media containing up to 15 % (w/v) NaCl. The DNA G+C content was 61 mol%. The two isolates exhibited a conspecific DNA-DNA relatedness value of 98 %, indicating that they belong to the same species. A comparative analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain KMM 3637(T) formed a distinct phyletic lineage in the genus Brevibacterium (family Brevibacteriaceae, class Actinobacteria) and showed the highest sequence similarity (about 97 %) to Brevibacterium casei. DNA-DNA hybridization experiments demonstrated 45 % binding with the DNA of B. casei DSM 20657(T). Physiological and chemotaxonomic characteristics (meso-diaminopimelic acid in the peptidoglycan, major cellular fatty acids 15 : 0ai and 17 : 0ai) of the bacteria studied were consistent with the genomic and phylogenetic data. On the basis of the results of this study, a novel species, Brevibacterium celere sp. nov., is proposed. The type strain is KMM 3637(T) (=DSM 15453(T)=ATCC BAA-809(T)).

Psychrobacter maritimus sp. nov. and Psychrobacter arenosus sp. nov., isolated from coastal sea ice and sediments of the Sea of Japan.

Four strains of Gram-negative, aerobic, psychrotolerant, non-motile, non-pigmented bacteria were isolated from coastal sea-ice and sediment samples. These strains displayed the general chemotaxonomic and phenotypic features of members of the genus Psychrobacter. 16S rRNA gene sequencing positioned the three isolates KMM 3646T, KMM 3643 and KMM 3645 and isolate KMM 3659T in two distinct lineages within the genus Psychrobacter, displaying less than 98.5 % sequence similarity to the type strains of other Psychrobacter species. Genomic distinctness was supported by phenotypic differences in growth temperatures, salinity range for growth and metabolic properties. Based on a combination of phenotypic and biochemical characteristics and phylogenetic position, it is proposed that the members of these two distinct lineages represent two novel species, for which the names Psychrobacter maritimus sp. nov. (type strain Pi2-20T = KMM 3646T = DSM 15387T) and Psychrobacter arenosus sp. nov. (type strain R7T = KMM 3659T = DSM 15389T) are proposed.

Pseudoalteromonas agarivorans sp. nov., a novel marine agarolytic bacterium.

The phenotypic, genomic and phylogenetic characteristics of four aerobic, Gram-negative, non-fermentative, motile, non-pigmented, agarolytic Pseudoalteromonas-like bacteria, isolated from marine environments, have been investigated. These bacteria share DNA-DNA similarities above 86%. Comparative 16S rDNA sequence analysis of strain KMM 255T revealed its membership of the genus Pseudoalteromonas; it shares 99.9% sequence similarity with Pseudoalteromonas distincta, Pseudoalteromonas elyakovii, Pseudoalteromonas atlantica and Pseudoalteromonas espejiana. DNA-DNA reassociation levels obtained for strain KMM 255T and type strains of these four species and other Pseudoalteromonas species were below 45%. The marine isolates differed from known species of the genus by the fact that the cells are motile by means of a single flagellum or two to four polar unsheathed flagella and by an inability to utilize most organic compounds. On the basis of phenotypic, DNA-DNA hybridization and phylogenetic data, it is concluded that the isolates represent a novel species within the genus Pseudoalteromonas, for which the name Pseudoalteromonas agarivorans sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is strain KMM 255T (= DSM 14585T).
