Pseudorivibacter rhizosphaerae gen. nov., sp. nov., isolated from rhizosphere soil of Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Ktze and emended description of the genus Rivibacter

Aquariibacter albus gen. nov., sp. nov., a new member of the order Burkholderiales, isolated from a freshwater aquarium

A novel bacterium, strain SJAQ100^T, was isolated from a freshwater aquarium and was characterized taxonomically and phylogenetically. Strain SJAQ100^T was a Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped and non-motile bacterium. The strain grew optimally with 0 % NaCl and at 25-37 °C on Reasoner's 2A agar. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the strain SJAQ100^T clustered with members of Burkholderiales incertae sedis in the order Burkholderiales, but sequence similarities to known species were less than 96.5 %. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain SJAQ100^T was 71.2 mol%. Genomic comparisons of strain SJAQ100^T with species in the order Burkholderiales were made using the Genome-to-Genome Distance Calculator, average nucleotide identity and average amino acid identity analyses (values indicated ≤22.1, ≤78.1, and ≤68.1 % respectively). Strain SJAQ100^T contained C_16 : 0 and C_16 : 1  ω7c/C_16 : 1  ω6c as major fatty acids and Q-8 as the major quinone. The major polyamines were putrescine and cadaverine. Strain SJAQ100^T contained phosphatidylethanolamine and diphosphatidylglycerol as major polar lipids. Based on the genotypic, chemotaxonomic and phenotypic results, strain SJAQ100^T represents a novel genus and species, Aquariibacter albus gen. nov., sp. nov., which belongs to order Burkholderiales and the class Betaproteobacteria. The type strain is SJAQ100^T (=KCTC 72203^T=CGMCC 1.18869^T=MCC 4385^T).
