Abstract
Two Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped, non-motile and golden yellow pigmented bacteria, designated as SCSIO 75105T and SCSIO 75732, were isolated from sediment in the Pearl River Estuary, Guangdong Province, PR China. Cells were positive for catalase and oxidase. Growth occurred at 10-37 °C (optimum, 28 °C), pH 6.0-10.0 (optimum, pH 7.0) and 0-5.0 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 2.0-3.0 %). The 16S rRNA gene analysis indicated that these two isolates shared a similarity of 100 % each other. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that these two isolates showed highest similarity to Altererythrobacter ishigakiensis CGMCC 1.14979T (97.3 %). However, a phylogenetic tree based on 288 orthologous clusters indicated that these two isolates were closely related to Alteriqipengyuania halimionae CPA5T. The average nucleotide identity, average amino acid identity, digital DNA-DNA hybridization and evolutionary distance values between the two isolates and Alteriqipengyuania halimionae CPA5T were 73.7-74.0 %, 65.2 %, 19.5 % and 0.24, respectively. The genomic DNA G+C content of both isolates was 65.2 mol%. The major cellular fatty acids were C18 : 1 ω7c, C17 : 1 ω6c and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1 ω7c and/or C16 : 1 ω6c), and Q-10 was the respiratory quinone. The polar lipid profile contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, sphingoglycolipid and one unidentified glycolipid. On the basis of the results of phenotypic, physiological, chemotaxonomic and genotypic characterization, strains SCSIO 75105T and SCSIO 75732 are considered to represent a novel species in the genus Alteriqipengyuania, for which the name Alteriqipengyuania flavescens sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SCSIO 75105T (=KCTC 92502T=MCCC 1K07993T).

Abstract
A novel Gram-negative, aerobic, motile, lemon-yellow-colored, and non-spore-forming rod-shaped bacterium designated strain NZ-12BT was isolated in February 2021 from a sponge species (Crateromorpha) collected at the southern Kermadec Ridge, Pacific Ocean, New Zealand. Comparative 16S rRNA gene-based analyses indicated that strain NZ-12BT shared 98.58%, 96.44%, 96.23%, and 94.78% 16S rRNA sequence similarity to Alteriqipengyuania lutimaris S-5T, Qipengyuania pelagi UST081027-248T, Qipengyuania citreus RE35F/1T, and Alteriqipengyuania halimionae CPA5T, respectively. The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone-10(Q-10). The polar lipid profile of NZ-12BT was composed of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidyl-N-methyl-ethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, sphingoglycolipid, phosphatidylglycerol, one unknown polar lipid, three unknown phospholipids, and three unknown glycolipids. The major fatty acids of strain NZ-12BT were C18:1ω12t, C16:0, C17:1ω6c, and C14:02-OH. Carotenoids were present. Genome mining analysis revealed a biosynthetic gene cluster encoding for the terpene biosynthesis. Pairwise ANI and dDDH values of strain NZ-12BT and closely related phylogenetic neighbors were below the threshold values of 95% and 70%, respectively. The DNA G+C content was 65.4 mol% (by genome). Based on data obtained by a polyphasic approach, type strain NZ-12BT (=DSM 112810T = NCCB 100841T) represents a novel species of the genus Alteriqipengyuania, for which the name Alteriqipengyuania abyssalis sp. nov. is proposed.

Abstract
A novel salt-tolerant alpha-proteobacterium, designated SALINAS58T, was isolated from Santa Engracia hypersaline spring water in the Añana Salt Valley, Álava, Spain. The isolate was Gram-negative, aerobic, non-motile, catalase-positive, oxidase-negative, rod-shaped and formed orange colonies on marine agar. Optimal growth was observed at pH 6.0-6.5, at 30 °C and in the presence of 1% (w/v) NaCl. The main cellular fatty acids (>20%) were summed feature 8 (C18 : 1 ω7c and/or C18 : 1 ω6c) and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1 ω7c and/or C16 : 1 ω6c). The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone Q-10 and the major polar lipids detected were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidilglycerol, four unidentified glycolipids and one unidentified phospholipid. Strain SALINAS58T had the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Altererythrobacter marensis MSW-14T (96.6%), Altererythrobacter aquaemixtae JSSK-8T (96.5%) and Pontixanthobacter luteolus SW-109T (96.5%) followed by Altererythrobacter atlanticus 26DY36T (96.4%). Results of the phylogenetic analysis, based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, and phylogenetic approaches based on whole genome nucleotide differences, showed that strain SALINAS58T could be distinguished from recognized species of the genus Altererythrobacter. The genomic DNA G+C content was 61.4 mol%. Digital DNA-DNA hybridization, average nucleotide identity and average aminoacid identity values between the genome of strain SALINAS58T and A. marensis MSW-14T were 18.4, 73.1 and 68.1%, respectively. Based on data from this polyphasic characterization, strain SALINAS58T (=CECT 30029T=LMG 31726T) is considered to be classified as representing a novel species in the genus Altererythrobacter, for which the name Altererythrobacter muriae sp. nov. is proposed.

Abstract
A Gram-stain-negative and aerobic bacterial strain, designated as JL3514T, was isolated from surface water of the hydrothermal system around Kueishan Island. The isolate formed red colonies and cells were non-flagellated, rod-shaped and contained methanol-soluble pigments. Growth was observed at 10-50 °C (optimum, 30 °C), at pH 5.0-9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0) and in the presence of 0-9 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 2 %). Strain JL3514T was positive for catalase and weakly positive for oxidase. Results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analyses showed highest similarities to species in the family Erythrobacteraceae, namely Croceibacterium atlanticum (96.1 %), Pelagerythrobacter marensis (96.0 %), Tsuneonella rigui (96.0 %) and Altericroceibacterium xinjiangense (96.0 %). Phylogenetic analysis based on core gene sequences revealed that the isolate formed a distinct branch with the related species and it had a lower average amino acid identity value than the suggested threshold for genera boundaries. The major fatty acids (>5 %) were summed feature 8 (C18 : 1 ω7c and/or C18 : 1 ω6c), summed feature 3 (C16 : 1 ω7c and/or C16 : 1 ω6c), C16 : 0, C17 : 1 ω6c, C14 : 0 2-OH and C12 : 0. The dominant polar lipids comprised diphosphatidylglycerol, sphingoglycolipid, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, glycolipid, two unidentified lipids and one unidentified phospholipid. The main respiratory quinones were ubiquinone-10 (95.7 %) and ubiquinone-9 (4.3 %). The DNA G+C content from the genome was 63.0 mol%. Based on the presented data, we consider strain JL3514T to represent a novel genus of the family Erythrobacteraceae, with the name Pseudopontixanthobacter vadosimaris gen. nov., sp. nov. The type strain is JL3514T (=KCTC 62623T=MCCC 1K03561T).

Abstract
The family Erythrobacteraceae, belonging to the order Sphingomonadales, class Alphaproteobacteria, is globally distributed in various environments. Currently, this family consist of seven genera: Altererythrobacter, Croceibacterium, Croceicoccus, Erythrobacter, Erythromicrobium, Porphyrobacter and Qipengyuania. As more species are identified, the taxonomic status of the family Erythrobacteraceae should be revised at the genomic level because of its polyphyletic nature evident from 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. Phylogenomic reconstruction based on 288 single-copy orthologous clusters led to the identification of three separate clades. Pairwise comparisons of average nucleotide identity, average amino acid identity (AAI), percentage of conserved protein and evolutionary distance indicated that AAI and evolutionary distance had the highest correlation. Thresholds for genera boundaries were proposed as 70 % and 0.4 for AAI and evolutionary distance, respectively. Based on the phylo-genomic and genomic similarity analysis, the three clades were classified into 16 genera, including 11 novel ones, for which the names Alteraurantiacibacter, Altericroceibacterium, Alteriqipengyuania, Alteripontixanthobacter, Aurantiacibacter, Paraurantiacibacter, Parerythrobacter, Parapontixanthobacter, Pelagerythrobacter, Tsuneonella and Pontixanthobacter are proposed. We reclassified all species of Erythromicrobium and Porphyrobacter as species of Erythrobacter. This study is the first genomic-based study of the family Erythrobacteraceae, and will contribute to further insights into the evolution of this family.

Abstract
A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile and coccoid-, ovoid- or rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated SSKS-13T, was isolated from sediment sampled at the junction between the ocean and a freshwater spring at Jeju island, Republic of Korea. Strain SSKS-13T grew optimally at 37 °C and in the presence of 2.0 % (w/v) NaCl. A neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain SSKS-13T fell within the clade comprising the type strains of Altererythrobacter species, clustering with the type strains of Altererythrobacter lauratis, Altererythrobacter palmitatis and Altererythrobacter buctensis having 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities of 97.2-97.6 %. Strain SSKS-13T exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities of less than 97.0 % to the type strains of the other recognized species. Strain SSKS-13T contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone and C18 : 1 ω7c as the major fatty acid. The major polar lipids detected in strain SSKS-13T were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and sphingoglycolipid. The DNA G+C content of strain SSKS-13T was 64.6 mol%. The mean DNA-DNA relatedness values of strain SSKS-13T with the type strains of A. lauratis, A. palmitatis and A. buctensis were 11.7-25.3 %. Differential phenotypic properties, together with the phylogenetic and genetic data, proved that strain SSKS-13T is distinct from recognized Altererythrobacter species. On the basis of the data presented here, strain SSKS-13T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Altererythrobacter, for which the name Altererythrobacter aquimixticola sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SSKS-13T (=KACC 19863T=KCTC 62900T=NBRC 113545T).

Abstract
A rod-shaped, Gram-staining-negative and orange-pigmented bacterium, designated strain HME9302T, was isolated from seawater of the Yellow Sea in the Republic of Korea. The phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain HME9302T formed a lineage within the genus Altererythrobacter, and was most closely related to Altererythrobacter aurantiacus O30T with 96.7 % sequence similarity. The major fatty acids were summed feature 8 (comprising C18 : 1ω7c and/or C18 : 1ω6c), summed feature 3 (comprising C16 : 1ω7c and/or C16 : 1ω6c) and C16 : 0. The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone-10. The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, sphingoglycolipid and four unidentified lipids. The DNA G+C content was 60.8 mol%. On the basis of the evidence presented in this study, strain HME9302T represents a novel species of the genus Altererythrobacter, for which the name Altererythrobacter maritimus sp. nov. is proposed with the type strain HME9302T (=KCTC 32463T=KACC 17617T=CECT 8417T).

Abstract
A lipolytic, Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile and coccoid, ovoid or rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated BPTF-M16T, was isolated from tidal flat sediment on the Yellow Sea in the Republic of Korea. Strain BPTF-M16T grew optimally at 30 °C and in the presence of 2.0-3.0 % (w/v) NaCl. A phylogenetic tree of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain BPTF-M16T fell within the clade comprising the type strains of Altererythrobacter species. Strain BPTF-M16T exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 98.0 and 97.1 % to the type strains of Altererythrobacterishigakiensis and Altererythrobactermarinus, respectively, and of less than 97.0 % to the type strains of the other recognized species. Strain BPTF-M16T contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone and C18 : 1ω7c as the major fatty acid. The major polar lipids detected in strain BPTF-M16T were phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, sphingoglycolipid and one unidentified glycolipid. Mean DNA-DNA relatedness values of strain BPTF-M16T with the type strains of A. ishigakiensis and A. marinus were 22 and 13 %, respectively. The average nucleotide identity value between strain BPTF-M16T and the type strain of A. ishigakiensis was 76.80 %. Differential phenotypic properties, together with the phylogenetic and genetic data, revealed that strain BPTF-M16T is separated from recognized Altererythrobacter species. On the basis of the data presented here, strain BPTF-M16T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Altererythrobacter, for which the name Altererythrobacter insulae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is BPTF-M16T (=KCTC 62421T=KACC 19609T=NBRC 113190T).

Abstract
Based on the feature of high-altitude permafrost topography and the diverse microbial ecological communities of the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, soil samples from thirteen different collection points around Qinghai lake were collected to screen for extremophilic strains with the ability to degrade phenol, and one bacterial strain recorded as TIBETAN4 that showed effective biodegradation of phenol was isolated and identified. TIBETAN4 was closely related to Kocuria based on its observed morphological, molecular and biochemical characteristics. TIBETAN4 grew well in the LB medium at pH 7–9 and 0–4% NaCl showing alkalophilicity and halophilism. The isolate could also tolerate up to 12.5 mM phenol and could degrade 5 mM phenol within 3 days. It maintained a high phenol degradation rate at pH 7–9 and 0–3% NaCl in MSM with 5 mM phenol added as the sole carbon source. Moreover, TIBETAN4 could maintain efficient phenol degradation activity in MSM supplemented with both phenol and glucose and complex water environments, including co-culture Penicillium strains or selection of non-sterilized natural lake water as a culture. It was found that TIBETAN4 showed enzymatic activity of phenol hydroxylase and catechol 1,2-dioxygenase after induction by phenol and the corresponding genes of the two enzymes were detected in the genome of the isolate, while catechol 2,3-dioxygenase or its gene was not, which means there could be a degradation pathway of phenol through the ortho-pathway. The Q-PCR results showed that the transcripts of both the phenol hydroxylase gene and catechol 1,2-dioxygenase gene were up-regulated under the stimulation of phenol, demonstrating again that the strain degraded phenol via ortho-degradation pathway.
