Abstract
Two novel Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile and rod-shaped bacteria, designated as WL0004T and XHP0148T, were isolated from seawater samples collected from the coastal areas of Nantong and Lianyungang, PR China, respectively. Both strains were found to grow at 10-42 °C (optimum, 37 °C) and with 2.0-5.0 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 3.0 %). Strain WL0004T grew at pH 6.0-9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0-8.0), while XHP0148T grew at pH 6.0-10.0 (optimum, pH 7.0-8.0). The major cellular fatty acids (>10 %) of both strains included summed feature 8 (C18 : 1 ω6c and/or C18 : 1 ω7c). In addition, strain WL0004T contained 11-methyl C18 : 1 ω7c and strain XHP0148T contained C12 : 0 3-OH. The respiratory quinone of both strains was ubiquinone-10. The G+C content of genomic DNA of strains WL0004T and XHP0148T were 62.5 and 63.0 mol%, respectively. Strains WL0004T and XHP0148T showed the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Ruegeria pomeroyi DSS-3T (99.4 and 99.0 %, respectively), and the 16S rRNA gene-based phylogenetic analysis indicated that the two strains were closely related to members of the genus Ruegeria. The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values among the two strains and type strains of the genus Ruegeria were all below 95 and 70 %, respectively, and the phylogenetic tree reconstructed from the bac120 gene set indicated that the two strains are distinct from each other and the members of the genus Ruegeria. Based on this phenotypic and genotypic characterization, strains WL0004T (=MCCC 1K07523T=JCM 35565T=GDMCC 1.3083T) and XHP0148T (=MCCC 1K07543T=JCM 35569T=GDMCC 1.3089T) should be recognized as representing two novel species of the genus Ruegeria and the names Ruegeria marisflavi sp. nov. and Ruegeria aquimaris sp. nov. are proposed, respectively.

Abstract
Three Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile and coccobacilli-shaped bacterial strains, designated as NPKOSM-4T, NPKOSM-8 and MO-31T, were isolated from rice paddy soil. They had 96.5-100 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to each other, and strains NPKOSM-4T and NPKOSM-8 showed 100 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, confirming that they were the same species. Comparative analysis of 16S rRNA genes with closely related type strains showed that three isolates were most closely related to Falsiroseomonas terricola EM0302T (96.1-97.8 %), Falsiroseomonas wooponensis WW53T (95.51-96.3 %) and Falsiroseomonas bella CQN31T (96.0-96.5 %), respectively. The genomes of strains NPKOSM-4T and MO-31T consisted of 4 632 875 and 6 455 771 bps, respectively, with 72.0 and 72.1 mol% G+C content. The average nucleotide identity (ANI), average amino acid identity (AAI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between strains NPKOSM-4T and MO-31T and type strains of Falsiroseomonas species were lower than the cut-offs (≥95 % for ANI, ≥95-96 % for AAI and ≥ 70 % for dDDH) required to define a bacterial species. The major fatty acids of strains NPKOSM-4T, NPKOSM-8 and MO-31T were C18 : 1 ω7c and C18 : 1 2-OH (<10 %) and the predominant quinone was Q-10. The polar lipids of strain NPKOSM-4T were identified as diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, one unidentified aminophospholipid and three unidentified aminolipids. The polar lipid profiles of strain MO-31T contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, one unidentified aminolipid and three unidentified lipids. Based on their distinctive phenotypic, phylogenetic, and chemotaxonomic characteristics, strains NPKOSM-4T, NPKOSM-8 and MO-31T are considered to represent two novel species of the genus Falsiroseomonas, for which the names Falsiroseomonas oryziterrae sp. nov. [to accommodate strains NPKOSM-4T (= KACC 22135T=JCM 34745T), NPKOSM-8 (=KACC 22134=JCM 34746)] and Falsiroseomonas oryzae sp. nov. [to accommodate strain MO-31T (= KACC 22465T=JCM 35532T)] are proposed.

Abstract
Two Gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped bacterial strains, 7MK25T and 6Y81T, were isolated from forest soil of Dinghushan Biosphere Reserve, Guangdong Province, PR China. Based on the results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain 7MK25T showed the highest similarity (93.6 %) to Methyloferula stellata AR4T, followed by Bosea thiooxidans DSM 9653T (93.3 %). Strain 6Y81T had the highest similarity of 97.9 % to Lichenibacterium minor RmlP026T, followed by Lichenibacterium ramalinae RmlP001T (97.2 %). Phylogenomic analysis using the UBCG and PhyloPhlAn methods consistently showed that strain 7MK25T formed a sister clade to Boseaceae, while strain 6Y81T formed an independent clade within the genus Lichenibacterium, both in the order Hyphomicrobiales. The digital DNA-DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values between strains 7MK25T, 6Y81T and their close relatives were in the ranges of 19.1-29.9 % and 72.5-85.5 %, respectively. The major fatty acids of 7MK25T were summed feature 8 (C18 : 1 ω7c/C18 : 1 ω6c), C19 : 0 cyclo ω8c, C16 : 0 and C17 : 0 cyclo, while those of 6Y81T were summed feature 8 (C18 : 1 ω7c/C18 : 1 ω6c), C16 : 0 and C16 : 0 3-OH. Strains 7MK25T and 6Y81T took diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylcholine as their dominant polar lipids, and Q-10 as their major respiratory quinone. On the basis of phenotypic and phylogenetic data, strain 7MK25T is proposed to represent a novel species of a novel genus with name Terrirubrum flagellatum gen. nov., sp. nov., within a novel family Terrirubraceae fam. nov., with 7MK25T (=KCTC 62738T=GDMCC 1.1452T) as its type strain. Strain 6Y81T represents a novel species in the genus Lichenibacterium, for which the name Lichenibacterium dinghuense sp. nov. (type strain 6Y81T=KACC 21 727T=GDMCC 1.2176T) is proposed. Rhodoblastaceae fam. nov. with Rhodoblastus as the type genus is also proposed to solve the non-monophylectic problem of the family Roseiarcaceae.

Abstract
A novel bifidobacterium (designated F753-1T) was isolated from the gut of honeybee (Apis mellifera). Strain F753-1T was characterized using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Strain F753-1T was phylogenetically related to the type strains of Bifidobacterium mizhiensis, Bifidobacterium asteroides, Bifidobacterium choladohabitans, Bifidobacterium mellis, Bifidobacterium apousia and Bifidobacterium polysaccharolyticum, having 98.4-99.8 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities. The phylogenomic tree indicated that strain F753-1T was most closely related to the type strains of B. mellis and B. choladohabitans. Strain F753-1T had the highest average nucleotide identity (94.1-94.5 %) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (56.3 %) values with B. mellis Bin7NT. Acid production from amygdalin, d-fructose, gentiobiose, d-mannose, maltose, sucrose and d-xylose, activity of α-galactosidase, pyruvate utilization and hydrolysis of hippurate could differentiate strain F753-1T from B. mellis CCUG 66113T and B. choladohabitans JCM 34586T. Based upon the data obtained in the present study, a novel species, Bifidobacterium apis sp. nov., is proposed, and the type strain is F753-1T (=CCTCC AB 2023227T=JCM 36562T=LMG 33388T).

Abstract
Members of Providencia, although typically opportunistic, can cause severe infections in immunocompromised hosts. Recent advances in genome sequencing provide an opportunity for more precise study of this genus. In this study, we first identified and characterized a novel species named Providencia zhijiangensis sp. nov. It has ≤88.23% average nucleotide identity (ANI) and ≤31.8% in silico DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values with all known Providencia species, which fall significantly below the species-defining thresholds. Interestingly, we found that Providencia stuartii and Providencia thailandensis actually fall under the same species, evidenced by an ANI of 98.59% and a dDDH value of 90.4%. By fusing ANI with phylogeny, we have reclassified 545 genomes within this genus into 20 species, including seven unnamed taxa (provisionally titled Taxon 1-7), which can be further subdivided into 23 lineages. Pangenomic analysis identified 1,550 genus-core genes in Providencia, with coenzymes being the predominant category at 10.56%, suggesting significant intermediate metabolism activity. Resistance analysis revealed that most lineages of the genus (82.61%, 19/23) carry a high number of antibiotic-resistance genes (ARGs) and display diverse resistance profiles. Notably, the majority of ARGs are located on plasmids, underscoring the significant role of plasmids in the resistance evolution within this genus. Three species or lineages (P. stuartii, Taxon 3, and Providencia hangzhouensis L12) that possess the highest number of carbapenem-resistance genes suggest their potential influence on clinical treatment. These findings underscore the need for continued surveillance and study of this genus, particularly due to their role in harboring antibiotic-resistance genes. IMPORTANCE The Providencia genus, known to harbor opportunistic pathogens, has been a subject of interest due to its potential to cause severe infections, particularly in vulnerable individuals. Our research offers groundbreaking insights into this genus, unveiling a novel species, Providencia zhijiangensis sp. nov., and highlighting the need for a re-evaluation of existing classifications. Our comprehensive genomic assessment offers a detailed classification of 545 genomes into distinct species and lineages, revealing the rich biodiversity and intricate species diversity within the genus. The substantial presence of antibiotic-resistance genes in the Providencia genus underscores potential challenges for public health and clinical treatments. Our study highlights the pressing need for increased surveillance and research, enriching our understanding of antibiotic resistance in this realm.

Abstract
Two novel bacterial strains, designated as COR-2T and CR-8, were isolated from paddy soil. These isolates were aerobic, Gram-stain-negative, non-spore-forming, non-motile, rod-shaped, and formed orange-coloured colonies. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that two strains formed a clear phylogenetic lineage with the genus Erythrobacter. Strains COR-2T and CR-8 showed 99.9 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity. Both strains had the highest 16S rRNA gene similarity of 99.1-99.7 % to Erythrobacter colymbi TPW-24T, Erythrobacter donghaensis SW-132T and Erythrobacter tepidarius DSM 10594T, respectively. The genome of strain COR-2T comprised 3 559 918 bp and the genomic DNA G + C content was 67.7 mol%. The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain COR-2T and its closely related species of the genus Erythrobacter were 79.3-85.5% and 24.1-29.1 %, respectively. The major respiratory quinone was Q-10, while the major fatty acids were C18 : 1 ω7c and C17 : 1 ω6c. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, two unidentified phospholipids and eight unidentified lipids. Based on phylogenetic and phenotypic considerations, the two strains [COR-2T (type strain; = KACC 22941T=JCM 35529T) and CR-8 (= KACC 22945=JCM 35530)] are considered to represent novel species of the genus Erythrobacter, for which the name Erythrobacter oryzae sp. nov. is proposed.

Abstract
A novel bacterial strain, APC 4016T, was previously isolated from the skin of a snub-nosed spiny eel, Notacanthus chemnitzii, from a depth of 1000 m in the northern Atlantic Ocean. Cells were aerobic, cocci, motile, Gram-positive to Gram-variable staining, and gave rise to orange-pigmented colonies. Growth occurred at 4-40 °C (optimum, 25-28 °C), pH 5.5-12 (optimum, pH 7-7.5), and 0-12 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 1 %). 16S rRNA gene phylogenetic analysis confirmed that strain APC 4016T belonged to the genus Planococcus and was most closely related to Planococcus okeanokoites IFO 12536T (98.98 % 16S similarity). However, digital DNA-DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values between these two strains were low, at 20.1 and 83.8 %, respectively. Major (>10 %) cellular fatty acids of strain APC 4016T were iso-C14 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0 and C16 : 1-ω-Alc. The predominant respiratory quinones were menaquinones 5, 6, 7 and 8. The major cellular polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine, and three unknown lipids were also present. The draft genome sequence is 3.6 Mb with a G+C content of 45.25 mol%. This strain was previously shown to have antimicrobial activity and to encode bacteriocin and secondary metabolite biosynthetic gene clusters. Based on the phylogenetic analysis and its distinct phenotypic characteristics, strain APC 4016T is deemed to represent a novel species of the genus Planococcus, and for which the name Planococcus notacanthi sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of this species is APC 4016T (=DSM 115753T=NCIMB 15463T).

Abstract
Two Gram-positive, non-motile, short rod-shaped actinomycete strains, designated as A18JL241T and Y20T, were isolated from deep-sea sediment samples collected from the Southwest Indian Ocean and Western Pacific Ocean, respectively. Both of the isolates were able to grow within the temperature range of 5-40 °C, NaCl concentration range of 0-7 % (w/v) and at pH 6.0-12.0. The two most abundant cellular fatty acids of both strains were anteiso-C15 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. The major polar lipid contents of the two strains were phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and one unidentified glycolipid. These two strains shared common chemotaxonomic features comprising MK-10 and MK-12 as the respiratory quinones. The genomic DNA G+C contents of the two strains were 68.1 and 70.4 mol%, respectively. The 16S rRNA gene phylogeny showed that the novel strains formed two distinct sublines within the genus Microbacterium. Strain A18JL241T was most closely related to the type strain of Microbacterium tenebrionis KCTC 49593T (98.8 % sequence similarity), whereas strain Y20T formed a tight cluster with the type strain of Microbacterium schleiferi NBRC 15075T (99.0 %). The orthologous average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values with the type strains of related Microbacterium species were in the range of 74.1-89.1 % and 19.4-36.9 %, respectively, which were below the recognized thresholds of 95-96 % ANI and 70 % dDDH for species definition. Based on the results obtained here, it can be concluded that strains A18JL241T and Y20T represent two novel species of the genus Microbacterium, for which the names Microbacterium abyssi sp. nov. (type strain A18JL241T=JCM 33956T=MCCC 1A16622T) and Microbacterium limosum sp. nov. (type strain Y20T=JCM 33960T=MCCC 1A16747T) are proposed.

Three Gram-stain-positive bacterial strains (designated 231-9T, 142-6 and 463-4) were isolated from traditional Chinese pickle, and were characterized using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strains 231-9T, 142-6 and 463-4 were phylogenetically related to the type strains of Lactiplantibacillus xiangfangensis, Lactiplantibacillus garii, Lactiplantibacillus carotarum, Lactiplantibacillus plajomi and Lactiplantibacillus modestisalitolerans, having 98.6-99.9 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities. Strains 231-9T, 142-6 and 463-4 were most closely related to the type strain of L. xiangfangensis, having 99.9 % 16S rRNA gene, 95.6 % pheS, 99.4 % rpoA and 98.2 % concatenated pheS and rpoA sequence similarities. Relatively low pheS (95.6 %) sequence similarity indicated that strain 231-9T should be further identified. Strain 231-9T shared 99.7-99.9 % average nucleotide identity (ANI) and 98.8-98.9 % digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values with strains 142-6 and 463-4, indicating that they belonged to the same species. The ANI and dDDH values between strain 231-9T and L. xiangfangensis LMG 26013T were 92.4-92.9 and 49.6 %, respectively, less than the threshold for species demarcation (95-96% ANI and 70 % dDDH values, respectively), indicating that strains 231-9T, 142-6 and 463-4 represented a novel species within the genus Lactiplantibacillus. Acid production from d-ribose, d-adonitol, d-galactose and lactose, activity of β-galactosidase and β-glucosidase, Voges-Proskauer reaction, hydrolysis of hippurate, resistance to 5 µg ml-1 erythromycin, 100 µg ml-1 tetracycline hydrochloride, 50 µg ml-1 bacitracin, 300 µg ml-1 each of gentamicin sulphate, streptomycin sulphate and neomycin sulphate, tolerance to 6 % NaCl could distinguish strains 231-9T, 142-6 and 463-4 from L. xiangfangensis 3.1.1T. Based upon the data of polyphasic characterization obtained in the present study, a novel species, Lactiplantibacillus paraxiangfangensis sp. nov., is proposed and the type strain is 231-9T (=JCM 36258T=CCTCC AB 2023133T).

Abstract
Four lactic acid bacteria, designated F690T, F697, F790T and F769-2, were isolated from the gut of honeybee (Apis mellifera). Results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strains F690T and F697 were phylogenetically related to the type strains of Lactobacillus kimbladii, Lactobacillus laiwuensis, Lactobacillus kullabergensis and Lactobacillus huangpiensis, having 99.1-99.6 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities; and that strains F790T and F769-2 were most closely related to the type strain of Lactobacillus melliventris, having 99.2-99.3 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities. The phylogenies based on concatenated pheS, rpoA, gyrB, hsp60, recA, rpoB and tuf sequences and based on whole genome sequences were identical to that based on 16S rRNA gene sequences. Strains F690T and F697 exhibited the highest average nucleotide identity (ANI; 92.1-93.2 %), digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH; 50-50.1 %) and average amino acid identity (AAI; 94.9-95.1 %) values with L. kimbladii Hma2NT. Strains F790T and F769-2 had the highest ANI (93.1-94 %), dDDH (54.4 %) and AAI (94.4-94.7 %) values with L. melliventris Hma8NT. Based upon the data obtained in the present study, two novel species, Lactobacillus juensis sp. nov. and Lactobacillus rizhaonensis sp. nov., are proposed and the type strains are F690T (=JCM 36259T=CCTCC AB 2023131T) and F790T (=JCM 36260T=CCTCC AB 2023132T), respectively.

Abstract
Strain collections are a treasure chest of numerous valuable and taxonomically validated bioresources. The Leibniz Institute DSMZ is one of the largest and most diverse microbial strain collections worldwide, with a long tradition of actinomycetes research. Actinomycetes, especially the genus Streptomyces, are renowned as prolific producers of antibiotics and many other bioactive natural products. In light of this, five Streptomyces strains, DSM 40971T, DSM 40484T, DSM 40713T, DSM 40976T, and DSM 40907T, which had been deposited a long time ago without comprehensive characterization, were the subject of polyphasic taxonomic studies and genome mining for natural compounds based on in vitro and in silico analyses. Phenotypic, genetic, and phylogenomic studies distinguished the strains from their closely related neighbors. The digital DNA-DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values between the five strains and their close, validly named species were below the threshold of 70% and 95%-96%, respectively, determined for prokaryotic species demarcation. Therefore, the five strains merit being considered as novel Streptomyces species, for which the names Streptomyces kutzneri sp. nov., Streptomyces stackebrandtii sp. nov., Streptomyces zähneri sp. nov., Streptomyces winkii sp. nov., and Streptomyces kroppenstedtii sp. nov. are proposed. Bioinformatics analysis of the genome sequences of the five strains revealed their genetic potential for the production of secondary metabolites, which helped identify the natural compounds cinerubin B from strain DSM 40484T and the phosphonate antibiotic phosphonoalamide from strain DSM 40907T and highlighted strain DSM 40976T as a candidate for regulator-guided gene cluster activation due to the abundance of numerous "Streptomyces antibiotic regulatory protein" (SARP) genes.

Abstract
Three Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming bacteria were isolated from activated sludge samples. The results of phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the three strains, designated HXWNR29T, HXWNR69T and HXWNR70T, had the highest sequence similarity to the type strains Flavobacterium cheniae NJ-26T, Flavobacterium channae KSM-R2A30T and Flavobacterium amniphilum KYPY10T with similarities of 97.66 %, 98.66 and 98.14 %, respectively. The draft genomes of these three strains were 2.93 Mbp (HXWNR29T), 2.69 Mbp (HXWNR69T) and 2.65 Mbp (HXWNR70T) long with DNA G+C contents of 31.84 %, 32.83 % and 34.66 %, respectively. These genomes contained many genes responsible for carbohydrate degradation and antibiotic resistance. The major fatty acids (>5 %) included iso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 0 3-OH and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH. The major menaquinone was MK-6 for all the three strains. The average nucleotide identity (ANI; 72.7-88.5 %) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH; 19.6-35.3 %) results further indicated that these three strains represented three novel species within the genus Flavobacterium, for which the names Flavobacterium odoriferum sp. nov. (type strain HXWNR29T = KCTC 92446T = CGMCC 1.61821T), Flavobacterium fragile sp. nov. (type strain HXWNR69T = KCTC 92468T = CGMCC 1.61442T) and Flavobacterium luminosum sp. nov. (type strain HXWNR70T = KCTC 92447T = CGMCC 1.61443T) are proposed.

Abstract
Background: Genus Anaplasma of the family Anaplasmataceae possesses bacteria of hematopoietic origin, which are obligate intracellular Gram-negative bacteria transmitted mainly by tick vectors. The members of this group of infectious agents are not new as etiological agents of animal diseases worldwide. However, now, reports of their zoonotic potential have gained currency to study these pathogens. The emergence of new species of Anaplasma and the spread of existing species to new areas and hosts highlight the importance of monitoring and improving diagnostic and treatment options for zoonotic diseases caused by Anaplasma. Conclusion: This review focuses on the general and distinctive characteristics of Anaplasma spp., with particular emphasis on the novel species and their diverse spectrum of hosts as potential risk factors impacting its emerging zoonosis.

Abstract
In this study, we describe Nakazawaea atacamensis f. a., sp. nov., a novel species obtained from Neltuma chilensis plant samples in Chile's hyperarid Atacama Desert. In total, three strains of N. atacamensis were obtained from independent N. chilensis samples (synonym Prosopis chilensis, Algarrobo). Two strains were obtained from bark samples, while the third strain was obtained from bark-exuded gum from another tree. The novel species was defined using molecular characteristics and subsequently characterized with respect to morphological, physiological, and biochemical properties. A neighbor-joining analysis using the sequences of the D1/D2 domains of the large subunit ribosomal RNA gene revealed that N. atacamensis clustered with Nakazawaea pomicola. The sequence of N. atacamensis differed from closely related species by 1.3%-5.2% in the D1/D2 domains. A phylogenomic analysis based on single-nucleotide polymorphism's data confirms that the novel species belongs to the genus Nakazawaea, where N. atacamensis clustered with N. peltata. Phenotypic comparisons demonstrated that N. atacamensis exhibited distinct carbon assimilation patterns compared to its related species. Genome sequencing of the strain ATA-11A-BT revealed a genome size of approximately 12.4 Mbp, similar to other Nakazawaea species, with 5116 protein-coding genes annotated using InterProScan. In addition, N. atacamensis exhibited the capacity to ferment synthetic wine must, representing a potential new yeast for mono or co-culture wine fermentations. This comprehensive study expands our understanding of the genus Nakazawaea and highlights the ecological and industrial potential of N. atacamensis in fermentation processes. The holotype of N. atacamensis sp. nov. is CBS 18375T . The Mycobank number is MB 849680.

Abstract
A novel ligninase-producing and cellulose-degrading actinobacterium, designated strain NEAU-A12T, was isolated from a soil sample collected from Aohan banner, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, PR China. A polyphasic taxonomic study was used to establish the status of strain NEAU-A12T. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain NEAU-A12T belonged to the genus Actinoplanes and showed the highest similarity (98.3 %) to Actinoplanes palleronii DSM 43940T, while showing less than 98.3 % similarity to other members of the genus Actinoplanes. The phospholipid profile contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol and glycosylphosphatidylinositol. The diagnostic sugars in cell hydrolysates were determined to be arabinose, glucose and xylose. The cell wall contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9(H4), MK-9(H6) and MK-9(H2). The major fatty acids were C15 : 0, C16 : 0, C16 : 1 ω7c and C17 : 0. Meanwhile, genomic analysis revealed a genome size of 10 192 524 bp and a DNA G+C content of 70.6 mol%, and indicated that strain NEAU-A12T had the potential to degrade lignin and cellulose, as well as produce bioactive compounds. In addition, the average nucleotide identity values between strain NEAU-A12T and its reference strains A. palleronii DSM 43940T, Actinoplanes regularis DSM 43151T, Actinoplanes philippinensis DSM 43019T, Actinoplanes xinjiangensis DSM 45184T and Actinoplanes italicus DSM 43146T were 80.3, 80.3, 84.1, 84.3 and 84.0 %, respectively. The levels of digital DNA-DNA hybridization between them were found to be 23.6 % (21.3-26.1 %), 23.8 % (21.5-26.3 %), 28.3 % (25.9-30.8 %), 28.6 % (26.0-30.9 %) and 28.4 % (26.2-31.1 %), respectively. Based on phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and genotypic data, strain NEAU-A12T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Actinoplanes, for which the name Actinoplanes sandaracinus sp. nov. is proposed, with NEAU-A12T (=CCTCC AA 2020039T=DSM 112043T) as the type strain.

Abstract
Five strains of two novel species were isolated from the wastewater treatment systems of a pharmaceutical factory located in Zhejiang province, PR China. Strains ZM22T and Y6 were identified as belonging to a potential novel species of the genus Comamonas, whereas strains ZM23T, ZM24 and ZM25 were identified as belonging to a novel species of the genus Pseudomonas. These strains were characterized by polyphasic approaches including 16S rRNA gene analysis, multi-locus sequence analysis, average nucleotide identity (ANI), in silico DNA-DNA hybridization (isDDH), physiological and biochemical tests, as well as chemotaxonomic analysis. Genome-based phylogenetic analysis further confirmed that strains ZM22T and Y6 form a distinct clade closely related to Comamonas testosteroni ATCC 11996T and Comamonas thiooxydans DSM 17888T. Strains ZM23T, ZM24 and ZM25 were grouped as a separate clade closely related to Pseudomonas nitroreducens DSM 14399T and Pseudomonas nicosulfuronedens LAM1902T. The orthoANI and isDDH results indicated that strains ZM22T and Y6 belong to the same species. In addition, genomic DNA fingerprinting demonstrated that these strains do not originate from a single clone. The same results were observed for strains ZM23T, ZM24 and ZM25. Strains ZM22T and Y6 were resistant to multiple antibiotics, whereas strains ZM23T, ZM24 and ZM25 were able to degrade an emerging pollutant, triclosan. The phylogenetic, physiological and biochemical characteristics, as well as chemotaxonomy, allowed these strains to be distinguished from their genus, and we therefore propose the names Comamonas resistens sp. nov. (type strain ZM22=MCCC 1K08496T=KCTC 82561T) and Pseudomonas triclosanedens sp. nov. (type strain ZM23T=MCCC 1K08497T=JCM 36056T), respectively.

Abstract
A Gram-negative, non-motile, strictly aerobic, rod-shaped bacterium, designated as H12T, was isolated from the sediments of mangrove plant Bruguiera sexangula taken from Dapeng district, Shenzhen, PR China. The pairwise 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain H12T shared high identity levels with species of the genus Microbulbifer, with the highest similarity level of 98.5 % to M. pacificus SPO729T, followed by 98.1 % to M. donghaiensis CN85T. Phylogenetic analysis using core-genome sequences showed that strain H12T formed a cluster with type species of M. pacificus SPO729T and M. harenosus HB161719T. The complete genome of strain H12T was 4 481 396 bp in size and its DNA G+C content was 56.7 mol%. The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values among strain H12T and type species of genus Microbulbifer were below the cut-off levels of 95-96 and 70 %, respectively. The predominant cellular fatty acids of strain H12T were iso-C15 : 0 (22.5 %) and C18 : 1 ω7c (13.9 %). Ubiquinone-8 was detected as the major respiratory quinone. The polar lipids of strain H12T comprised one phosphatidylglycerol, one phosphatidylethanolamine, one unidentified aminoglycophospholipid, one unidentified glycophospholipid, three unidentified glycolipids, two unidentified aminolipids, and one unidentified lipid. Based on polyphasic evidence, strain H12T represents a novel species of the genus Microbulbifer, for which the name Microbulbifer bruguierae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is H12T (=KCTC 92859T=MCCC 1K08451T). Comparative genomic analyses of strain H12T with strains of the genus Microbulbifer reveal its potential in degradation of pectin.

Abstract
An anaerobic, Gram-positive, rod-shaped, motile and spore-forming bacterium, designated strain ZCY20-5T, was isolated from pit clay of Chinese strong-aroma type Baijiu (Chinese liquor). Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene and genome sequences showed that strain ZCY20-5T belonged to the genus Caproicibacterium, family Oscillospiracheae, but it showed low similarity to the type species Caproicibacterium amylolyticum LBM18003T (98.00 %) and Caproicibacterium lactatifermentans LBM19010T (95.67 %). In anaerobic yeast extract medium, growth was observed at 20-45 °C (optimum, 35-40 °C), at pH 4.0-9.0 (optimum, pH 6.5-7.0) and with 0.0-2.0 % NaCl (w/v). The predominant fatty acids were C16 : 0, C14 : 0, C13 3-OH and C16 3-OH, and the major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, three phospholipids of unknown structure containing glucosamine and two unidentified phospholipids. Strain ZCY20-5T exhibited an 81.32 % pairwise average nucleotide identity value, a 78.98 % average amino acid identity value and a 22.30 % digital DNA-DNA hybridization value compared to its closest relative C. amylolyticum LBM18003T. Based on morphological, physiological, biochemical, chemotaxonomic, genotypic and phylogenetic results, strain ZCY20-5T represents a novel species of Caproicibacterium, and the type strain is ZCY20-5T (=MCCC 1A19399T=KCTC 25590T).

Abstract
A previously undescribed, heavy-metal-tolerant, motile, Gram-negative bacterium, designated strain SK50-23T, was characterized using a polyphasic approach. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain SK50-23T was closely related to Tardiphaga robiniae LMG 26467T and the non-phototrophic 'Rhodopseudomonas boonkerdii' NS23T (98.1 and 97.3 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, respectively). Strain SK50-23T possessed a circular genome of 5.86 Mb, with a DNA G+C content of 61.9 mol%. Digital DNA-DNA hybridization showed 20.8-21.6 % similarity between strain SK50-23T and related species. In addition, the whole-genome average nucleotide identity values between strain SK50-23T and related species ranged from 75.1 to 83.5 %. The major cellular fatty acid identified in strain SK50-23T was C18 : 1ω7c, and the main isoprenoid quinone present was ubiquinone Q-10. Strain SK50-23T could be assigned to the genus Tardiphaga with the species name Tardiphaga alba sp. nov. based on morphological, chemotaxonomic and genome-based taxonomic characteristics, and 16S rRNA gene-based phylogenetic characteristics. The type strain of the proposed novel species is SK50-23T (=NBRC 108825T=CGMCC No. 1.12037T).

Abstract
An aerobic, Gram-stain-positive, rod-shaped, endospore-forming bacterial strain, designated BB3-R1T, was isolated from cow faeces sampled in Daejeon, Republic of Korea. Growth was observed at 25-45 °C (optimum, 35-40 °C) and pH 7.0-9.0 (optimum, pH 8.0), with up to 3 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0 % NaCl). blast analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed the highest sequence similarity of strain BB3-R1T to Brevibacillus borstelensis NRRL NRS-818T (98.8 %) followed by Brevibacillus panacihumi JCM 15085T (97.5 %). According to 16S rRNA gene and whole-genome based phylogenetic trees, strain BB3-R1T clustered with Brevibacillus composti FJAT-54423T and B. borstelensis NRRL NRS-818T. OrthoANI and dDDH values of strain BB3-R1T with the closely related strains were lower than 77.5 and 26.8 %, respectively. The major menaquinones and polar lipids of the strain were MK-7 and phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine, respectively. The major fatty acids (>10 %) were C14 : 0 iso, C15 : 0 iso, C15 : 0 anteiso and C16 : 1 ω7c alcohol. The cell-wall peptidoglycan contained cross-linked meso-diaminopimelic acid (type A1 gamma). The phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and genotypic data obtained in this study showed that the strain represents a novel species of the genus Brevibacillus, for which the name Brevibacillus ruminantium sp. nov. (type strain BB3-R1T=KACC 22663T=NBRC 115962T) is proposed.

Abstract
A novel budding yeast species was isolated from a soil sample collected in the United States of America. Phylogenetic analyses of multiple loci and phylogenomic analyses conclusively placed the species within the genus Pichia. Strain yHMH446 falls within a clade that includes Pichia norvegensis, Pichia pseudocactophila, Candida inconspicua, and Pichia cactophila. Whole genome sequence data were analyzed for the presence of genes known to be important for carbon and nitrogen metabolism, and the phenotypic data from the novel species were compared to all Pichia species with publicly available genomes. Across the genus, including the novel species candidate, we found that the inability to use many carbon and nitrogen sources correlated with the absence of metabolic genes. Based on these results, Pichia galeolata sp. nov. is proposed to accommodate yHMH446T (=NRRL Y-64187 = CBS 16864). This study shows how integrated taxogenomic analysis can add mechanistic insight to species descriptions.

Abstract
A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-flagellated and coccoid or ovoid bacterial strain, BSSL-BM11T, was isolated from sand of coastal dunes along the Yellow Sea of the Korean peninsula. Strain BSSL-BM11T grew optimally at 30 °C, at pH 7.0-8.0 and in the presence of 2.0-3.0 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, the up-to-date bacterial core gene set and average amino acid identity (AAI) showed that strain BSSL-BM11T forms a cluster with the type strains of Tianweitania sediminis and Corticibacterium populi. Strain BSSL-BM11T showed 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities of 98.3 and 98.0 % to the type strains of T. sediminis and C. populi, respectively, and less than 96.4 % to the type strains of the other recognized species. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between strain BSSL-BM11T and the type strains of T. sediminis and C. populi were 77.0-84.8 % and 20.0-28.1 %, respectively. The 16S rRNA gene similarity, AAI, ANI and dDDH values between T. sediminis Z8T and C. populi KCTC 42249T were 98.0, 77.4, 76.7 and 20.1 %, respectively. The DNA G+C content of strain BSSL-BM11T from genomic sequence data was 61.3 mol%. Strain BSSL-BM11T contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone and C18 : 1 ω7c, C16 : 0 and cyclo C19 : 0 ω8c as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipids of strain BSSL-BM11T were phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. Based on the polyphasic data, it is proposed that C, populi be reclassified as a member of the genus Tianweitania. Phenotypic and phylogenetic analyses revealed that strain BSSL-BM11T is separated from T. sediminis and C. populi. On the basis of the data presented here, strain BSSL-BM11T (=KACC 21634T=NBRC 114503T) is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Tianweitania, for which the name Tianweitania aestuarii sp. nov. is proposed.

Abstract
A novel Gram-stain-negative strain, designated S37H4T, was isolated from an intertidal surface sediment sample collected from Zhanjiang City, Guangdong province, south PR China. Cells of the strain were aerobic, non-flagellated, long rod-shaped and motile by gliding. S37H4T could grow at 4-40 °C, pH 7.0-8.5 and in 2.0-15.0 % NaCl, with optimal growth at 25-30 °C, pH 7.5 and 9.0 % NaCl, respectively. S37H4T was capable of nitrite removal under high-salt conditions, and there were three denitrification genes, nirK, norB and nosZ, in its genome. The results of phylogenetic analyses based on the 16S rRNA gene and genome sequences indicated that S37H4T represented a member of the genus Marivirga and formed a subclade with Marivirga lumbricoides JLT2000T. S37H4T showed the highest 16S rRNA sequence similarity to M. lumbricoides JLT2000T (98.3 %) and less than 97.0 % similarity with other type strains of species of the genus Marivirga. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between S37H4T and the reference type strains of species of the genus Marivirga were 70.7-74.3 % and 18.2-19.2 %, respectively. The major fatty acids of S37H4T were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 1G, iso-C17 : 0 3-OH and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω6c and/or C16 : 1ω7c). The major respiratory quinone of this novel strain was MK-7, and the predominant polar lipids were identified as phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminolipid, an unidentified phospholipid and three unidentified lipids. The results of analyses of phylogenetic, genomic, physiological and biochemical characteristics indicated that S37H4T represented a novel species of the genus Marivirga, for which the name Marivirga aurantiaca sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is S37H4T (= GDMCC 1.1866T = KACC 21922T).

Abstract
A new, facultatively anaerobic, light-yellow, and rod-shaped bacterium designated as 3B26T isolated from Qi'ao Island's tidal flat sediment was identified. Strain 3B26T can hydrolyze gelatin, aesculin, and skim milk. The major cellular fatty acids were identified as iso-C15:0, referred to as summed feature 3, and C16:0; the polar lipids consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, and phospholipid; and the quinones contained Q-7, Q-8, MK-7, and MMK7. The genomic size of strain 3B26T was 4,682,650 bp, and its genomic DNA G + C content was 54.8%. While a 16S rRNA gene-based phylogenetic analysis confirmed that strain 3B26T belongs to the genus Shewanella, both phylogenomic inference and genomic comparison revealed that strain 3B26T is distinguishable from its relatives, and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values of 24.4-62.6% and average nucleotide identities (ANIs) of 83.5-95.6% between them were below the 70% dDDH and 96% ANI thresholds for bacterial species delineation. Genomic functional analysis demonstrated that strain 3B26T possesses complete gene clusters of eicosapentaenoic acid biosynthesis and denitrification. Based on the evidence above, strain 3B26T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Shewanella, and the name Shewanella zhuhaiensis sp. nov. (type strain 3B26T = GDMCC 1.2057T = KCTC 82339T) is proposed.

Abstract
Although some nomenclature changes have caused consternation among clinical microbiologists, the discovery of novel taxa and improving classification of existing groups of organisms is exciting and adds to our understanding of microbial pathogenesis. In this mini-review, we present an in-depth summary of novel taxonomic designations and revisions to prokaryotic taxonomy that were published in 2022. Henceforth, these bacteriology taxonomic summaries will appear annually. Several of the novel Gram-positive organisms have been associated with disease, namely, the Corynebacterium kroppenstedtii-like organisms Corynebacterium parakroppenstedtii sp. nov. and Corynebacterium pseudokroppenstedtii sp. nov. A newly described Streptococcus species, Streptococcus toyakuensis sp. nov., is noteworthy for exhibiting multi-drug resistance. Among the novel Gram-negative pathogens, Vibrio paracholerae sp. nov. stands out as an organism associated with diarrhea and sepsis and has probably been co-circulating with pandemic Vibrio cholerae for decades. Many new anaerobic organisms have been described in this past year largely from genetic assessments of gastrointestinal microbiome collections. With respect to revised taxa, as discussed in previous reviews, the genus Bacillus continues to undergo further division into additional genera and reassignment of existing species into them. Reassignment of two subspecies of Fusobacterium nucleatum to species designations (Fusobacterium animalis sp. nov. and Fusobacterium vincentii sp. nov.) is also noteworthy. As was typical of previous reviews, literature updates for selected clinically relevant organisms discovered between 2017 and 2021 have been included.

Abstract
The majority of the microbial diversity in nature has not been recovered through cultivation. Enrichment is a classical technique widely used in the selective cultivation of specific taxa. Whether enrichment is suitable for cultivation studies that aim to recover large numbers of species remains little explored. To address this issue, we evaluated the potential of enrichment pretreatment in the cultivation of bacteria from marine sediments. Upon obtaining and classifying a total of 943 pure cultures from chitin and cellulose enrichment pretreatment systems and a control system, our results showed that species obtained using enrichment pretreatment differed greatly from those without enrichment. Multiple enrichment media and different enrichment times increased the number of cultivated species in a sample. Amplicon sequencing showed that the increased relative abundance during pretreatment contributed greatly to bacterial cultivation. The testing of degradation abilities against chitin and cellulose and the whole-genome sequencing of representative strains suggested that microorganism-microorganism interactions play roles in the expanded diversity of cultivated bacteria. This study provides new insights into the abilities of enrichment in exploring cultivable diversity and mining microbial resources.

Abstract
Strain TÜ4103T was originally sampled from Java, Indonesia and deposited in the Tübingen strain collection under the name 'Streptomyces sp.'. The strain was found to be an antibiotic producer as strain TÜ4103T showed bioactivity against Gram-positive bacteria, such as Bacillus subtilis and Kocuria rhizophila in bioassays. Strain TÜ4103T showed 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 99.65 % to Kitasatospora cheerisanensis DSM 101999T and 98.82 % to Kitasatospora niigatensis DSM 44781T and Kitasatospora cineracea DSM 44780T. Genome-based phylogenetic analysis revealed that strain TÜ4103T is closely related to K. cineracea DSM 44780T and K. niigatensis DSM 44781T. The digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between the genome sequences of strain TÜ4103T and its closest phylogenomic relatives, strains DSM 44780T and DSM 44781T, were 43.0 and 42.9 %, respectively. Average nucleotide identity (ANI) values support this claim, with the highest ANI score of 91.14 % between TÜ4103T and K. niigatensis being closely followed by an ANI value of 91.10 % between K. cineracea and TÜ4103T. The genome of TÜ4103T has a size of 7.91 Mb with a G+C content of 74.05 mol%. Whole-cell hydrolysates of strain TÜ4103T are rich in meso-diaminopimelic acid, and rhamnose, galactose and mannose are characteristic as whole-cell sugars. The phospholipid profile contains phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol and glycophospholipid. The predominant menaquinones (>93.5 %) are MK-9(H8) and MK-9(H6). Based on the phenotypic, genotypic and genomic characteristics, strain TÜ4103T (=DSM 114396T=CECT 30712T) merits recognition as the type strain of a novel species of the genus Kitasatospora, for which the name Kitasatospora fiedleri sp. nov. is proposed.

Abstract
Three Marinicella strains, X102, S1101T and S6413T, were isolated from sediment samples from different coasts of Weihai, PR China. All strains were Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped and non-motile. The predominant fatty acids of all strains were iso-C15 : 0 and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1 ω7c/C16 : 1 ω6c) and the major polar lipids comprised phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol. Strains X102 and S1101T shared 100 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, and strains S1101T/X102 and S6413T had 95.4 % similarity. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between strains S1101T and X102 were 99.9 and 99.2 %, respectively. Strain S1101T had ANI values of 69.1-72.9% and dDDH values of 17.9-20.5 % to members of the genus Marinicella. Strain S6413T had ANI values of 69.1-77.5% and dDDH values of 17.6-21.5 % to members of the genus Marinicella. The results of phylogenetic and comparative genomic analysis showed that the three strains belong to two novel species in the genus Marinicella, and strains X102 and S1101T represented one novel species, and strain S6413T represented another novel species. The result of BOX-PCR and genomic analysis showed that X102 and S1101T were not the same strain. The phylogenetic analyses and genomic comparisons, combined with phylogenetic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic features, strongly supported that the three strains should be classified as representing two novel species of the genus Marinicella, for which the names Marinicella marina sp. nov. and Marinicella gelatinilytica sp. nov. are proposed, respectively. The type strains of the two novel species are S1101T (=KCTC 92642T=MCCC 1H01359T) and S6413T (=KCTC 92641T=MCCC 1H01362T), respectively. In addition, all previously described isolates of Marinicella were isolated from marine environments, but our study showed that Marinicella is also distributed in non-/low-saline habitats (e.g. animal gut, soil and indoor surface), which broadened our perception of the environmental distribution of Marinicella.

Abstract
Two Gram-stain negative, aerobic and rod-shaped bacterial strains, DHOD12T and 7GSK02T, were isolated from forest soil of Dinghushan Biosphere Reserve, Guangdong Province, PR China. Strain DHOD12T grew at 4-42 °C (optimum, 28-33 °C), pH 4.0-8.5 (optimum, pH 5.5-6.5) and in the presence of 0-1.5 % (w/v; optimum, 0-0.5 %)NaCl; while strain 7GSK02T grew at 12-42 °C (optimum, 28-33 °C), pH 4.0-8.5 (optimum, pH 5.0-6.0) and in the presence of 0-0.5 % (w/v; optimum, 0 %) NaCl. Strains DHOD12T and 7GSK02T had the highest 16S rRNA sequence similarities of 98.0 and 98.3 % with the same species Trinickia mobilis DHG64T, respectively, and 98.4 % between themselves. In the 16S rRNA phylogeny, they formed a clade that was sister to a major cluster consisting of all described Trinickia species. Phylogenomic analyses with the UBCG and PhyloPhlAn methods consistently showed that strains DHOD12T and 7GSK02T formed a clade with T. mobilis DHG64T that was a sister of a cluster containing the remainder of the Trinickia species. The DNA G+C contents of strains DHOD12T and 7GSK02T were 63.1 and 64.6 mol%, respectively. Digital DNA-DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values of strains DHOD12T, 7GSK02T and their closely related strains were in the ranges of 21.6-31.4 % and 77.1-86.9 %, respectively. These two strains had the same major respiratory quinone, ubiquinone-8, and both had C16 : 0, C17 : 0 cyclo and summed feature 8 (C18 : 1 ω7c/C18 : 1 ω6c) as their major fatty acids. Their major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol. Genomic analysis indicated that the two strains could have the potential to degrade aromatic compounds like other Trinickia species. On the basis of phenotypic and phylogenetic results, strains DHOD12T and 7GSK02T represent two novel species of the genus Trinickia, for which the names Trinickia violacea sp. nov. (type strain DHOD12T=LMG 30258T=CGMCC 1.15436T) and Trinickia terrae sp. nov. (type strain 7GSK02T=CGMCC 1.15432T=KCTC 62468T) are proposed.

Abstract
Strain BD7642T was isolated from Chinese pickled potherb mustard (Brassica juncea Coss.) purchased from a local market in Shanghai, PR China. A polyphasic approach, including 16S rRNA gene sequence, housekeeping gene, average nucleotide identity (ANI), digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH), G+C content and phenotypic analyses, was employed to characterize strain BD7642T. Cells of the bacterium were short round rods, Gram-stain-positive, non-spore-forming and catalase-negative. The strain grew at 30-45 °C and pH 4.0-8.0. Optimum growth occurred at 35-40 °C and pH 6.0-7.0. The strain exhibited growth with salt (NaCl) concentrations of up to 5 % (w/v). The G+C content of the strain's genomic DNA was 31.37 mol%. The major fatty acids were C16 : 0, C18 : 1 c9 and summed feature 10 (C18 : 1 c11/t9/t6). 16S rRNA gene sequencing revealed that strain BD7642T represents a member of the genus Ligilactobacillus and it had high sequence similarity to Ligilactobacillus aviarius NBRC 102162T (96.73 %), Ligilactobacillus araffinosus LGM 23560 (96.66 %) and Ligilactobacillus salivarius JCM 1231T (95.82 %). The dDDH values between strain BD7642T and its phylogenetically related species within the genus Ligilactobacillus ranged from 12.6 to 25.4 %. The ANI values between strain BD7642T and its closely related taxa were far lower than the threshold (95 %-96 %) used for species differentiation. Results of phylogenetic, physiological and phenotypic characterization confirmed that strain BD7642T represents a novel species within the genus Ligilactobacillus, for which the name Ligilactobacillus cholophilus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is BD7642T (=CCTCC AB 2022398T=JCM 36074T).

Abstract
Three Gram-stain-positive, non-motile, short rod-shaped, catalase-positive and oxidase-negative actinomycete strains (SOB44T, SOB72T and SOB77T) were isolated from a deep-sea sediment sample collected from the Western Pacific Ocean. Cells of the three strains showed optimum growth at 30 °C and pH 7.0. Strains SOB44T, SOB72T and SOB77T could tolerate up to 10, 9 and 9 % (w/v) NaCl concentration and grow at pH 5.0-12.0, 5.0-11.0 and 5.0-11.0, respectively. Phylogenetic results based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the three isolates belonged to the genus Nocardioides and were identified as representing three novel species based on 78.0-93.1 % average nucleotide identity and 21.3-50.0 % DNA-DNA hybridization values with closely related reference strains. Strains SOB44T, SOB72T and SOB77T showed highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Nocardioides salarius CL-Z59T (99.2 %), Nocardioides deserti SC8A-24T (99.2 %) and Nocardioides marmotae zg-579T (98.5 %), respectively. All three strains had MK-8(H4) as the respiratory quinone, iso-C16 : 0 as the major fatty acid, and phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol as the major polar lipids. The diagnostic diamino acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan of all three isolates was ll-diaminopimelic acid. The DNA G+C contents of strains SOB44T, SOB72T and SOB77T were 71.1, 72.9 and 72.9 mol%, respectively. Based on the phenotypic, phylogenetic and genotypic data, strains SOB44T, SOB72T and SOB77T clearly represent three novel taxa within the genus Nocardioides, for which the names Nocardioides cremeus sp. nov. (type strain SOB44T=JCM 35774T= MCCC M28400T), Nocardioides abyssi sp. nov. (type strain SOB72T=JCM 35775T=MCCC M28318T) and Nocardioides oceani sp. nov. (type strain SOB77T=JCM 35776T=MCCC M28544T) are proposed.

Abstract
A Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, rod-shaped, endospore-forming and motile, by means of peritrichous flagella, bacterium, designated DT12T, was isolated from a lake water sample from Datun Lake of Yunnan Province, PR China. The results of phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence and the concatenated alignment of 120 ubiquitous single-copy proteins indicated that the novel strain represented a member of the genus Tumebacillus. The sole quinone was menaquinone-7 and the cell-wall peptidoglycan was type-A1γ. The major fatty acids (>10 %) of the novel strain were iso-C15 : 0 and anteiso-C15 : 0, while the major polar lipids were phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol. The results of phylogenetic analyses combined with phylogenetic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic features, strongly supported the hypothesis that the strain should be classified as representing a novel species of the genus Tumebacillus, for which the name Tumebacillus lacus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DT12T (=KCTC 33958T= MCCC 1H00320T). The genomic analysis revealed that DT12T has various biosynthetic gene clusters for secondary metabolites, and members of the genus Tumebacillus may represent a promising source of new natural products. Our study also showed that members of the genus Tumebacillus are widely distributed in a variety of habitats throughout the globe, particularly in soils, human-, animal- and plant-associated environments. Members of the genus Tumebacillus may have an important role in the growth and health of humans, plants and animals.

Abstract
A floc-forming bacterial strain, designated HF-7T, was isolated from the activated sludge of an industrial wastewater treatment plant in Hefei, PR China. Cells of this strain were Gram-stain-positive, catalase- and oxidase-negative, facultatively anaerobic, and rod-shaped. Growth occurred at 20-42 °C (optimum, 28 °C), at pH 5.5-10.5 (optimum, pH 7.5) and with 0-8.0 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 1 %). The major fatty acid was anteiso-C15 : 0. The polar lipid profile contained phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol. The DNA G+C content was 67 mol% from whole genomic sequence analysis. Based on the results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, this strain should be assigned to the genus Tessaracoccus and is closely related to Tessaracoccus arenae CAU 1319T (95.87 % similarity), Tessaracoccus lapidicaptus IPBSL-7T (95.19 %) and Tessaracoccus bendigoensis Ben 106T (94.63 %) but separated from them by large distances in different phylogenetic trees. Based on whole genome analysis, the orthologous average nucleotide identity and in silico DNA-DNA hybridization values against two of the closest relatives were 75.21-76.50 % and 14.2-24.4 %, respectively. The phylogenetic, genotypic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic data demonstrated that strain HF-7T could be distinguished from its phylogenetically related species and represents a novel species within the genus Tessaracoccus, for which the name Tessaracoccus caeni sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HF-7T (=KCTC 49959T=CCTCC AB 2023019T).

Abstract
Six Gram-stain-positive, facultative anaerobic, nonmotile and rod-shaped strains, designated zg-Y50T, zg-Y1362, zg-Y1379T, zg-Y869, zg-629T and zg-Y636, were isolated from the intestinal contents of Marmota himalayana in Qinghai Province, PR China. Strains zg-Y50T, zg-Y1379T and zg-629T exhibited the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities of 99.2, 98.9 and 98.8 % to Aeromicrobium choanae 9 H-4T, Aeromicrobium ginsengisoli JCM 14732T and Aeromicrobium flavum TYLN1T, respectively. Phylogenetic and phylogenomic analyses based on the 16S rRNA gene and genomic sequences, respectively, revealed that the six strains formed three distinct clades within the genus Aeromicrobium. The genome sizes of strains zg-Y50T, zg-Y1379T and zg-629T were 3.1-3.7 Mb, with DNA G+C contents of 69.6-70.4 mol%. Average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between each novel strain and available members of the genus Aeromicrobium were all below species thresholds. All novel strains contained MK-9 (H4) as the major menaquinone and diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol as the polar lipids. The predominant fatty acid of the six isolates was C18 : 1 ω9c. The cell-wall peptidoglycan contained ʟʟ-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid. Based on the results from this polyphasic taxonomic study, three novel species in the genus Aeromicrobium are proposed, namely, Aeromicrobium duanguangcaii sp. nov. (zg-Y50T=GDMCC 1.2981T=KCTC 49764T), Aeromicrobium wangtongii sp. nov. (zg-Y1379T=GDMCC 1.2982T=KCTC 49765T) and Aeromicrobium senzhongii sp. nov. (zg-629T=CGMCC 1.17414T=JCM 33888T).

Abstract
During the 2021 European Food Safety Authority coordinated harmonized monitoring of antimicrobial resistance in Campylobacter species in Slovenia, five Campylobacter-like strains were cultured from caeca of a total of 104 domestic pigs that could not be identified using the standard-prescribed biochemical tests or MALDI-TOF MS. The isolates were obtained using the standard ISO 10272 procedure for the isolation of thermotolerant Campylobacter with prolonged cultivation time. Small Campylobacter-like colonies were observed on mCCDA and CASA agar plates after 2-4 days of incubation; dark-field microscopy revealed relatively big spirilli-shaped bacteria exhibiting characteristic Campylobacter-like motility. The cells were 1.5-3 µm long and 0.5-0.7 µm wide, Gram-negative, oxidase-positive and catalase-positive. MALDI-TOF mass spectra were distinctive and consistent, but with low MALDI-TOF MS log scores and the closest matches being those of Campylobacter hyointestinalis and Campylobacter fetus. All five strains underwent whole-genome sequencing. Analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the isolates were most similar (98.3-98.4 % identity) to Campylobacter lanienae. Pairwise average nucleotide identity (ANI) values revealed that the five studied strains shared pairwise ANI of 96.2-96.5 % but were clearly distinct from the previously described Campylobacter species (ANI ≤72.8 %). The core genome-based phylogeny confirmed that the new strains form a distinct and well-supported clade within the genus Campylobacter. The conducted polyphasic taxonomic analysis confirmed that the five strains represent a novel Campylobacter species for which the name Campylobacter magnus sp. nov. is suggested, with strain 46386T (=DSM 115534T=CCUG 76865T) as the type strain.

Abstract
A Gram-stain-negative, facultative anaerobic, rod-shaped strain, named SDRW27T, was isolated from offshore seawater collected near Qingdao. Strain SDRW27T was able to grow at 16-37 °C (optimum, 28 °C), pH 6.0-9.0 (optimum, pH 6.0) and in the presence of 1-7 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 3 %). Phylogenetic analysis using 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain SDRW27T was most closely related to Photobacterium toruni H01100410BT (97.89 % sequence similarity), Photobacterium andalusiense H01100409BT (97.89 %) and Photobacterium leiognathi ATCC 25521T (97.82 %). The predominant fatty acids were summed feature 3 (C16 : 1 ω7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH), summed feature 8 (C18 : 1 ω7c and/or C18 : 1 ω6c) and C16 : 0. The polar lipids of strain SDRW27T comprised phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol dimannoside, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine and three unidentified lipids. The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone-8. The G+C content was 47.71 mol%. The genome size was 5.84 Mbp, including 85 contigs with an N50 value of 223 542. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) values of SDRW27T with its three most similar strains, P. toruni H01100410BT, P. andalusiense H01100409BT and P. leiognathi ATCC 25521T, were 71.36, 71.58 and 72.23 %, respectively (all lower than the 95-96 % ANI threshold), and the DNA-DNA hybridization (DDH) values were 20.4, 20.8 and 20.4 % (all lower than the 70 % DDH threshold). The obtained results of polyphasic analysis demonstrate that strain SDRW27T represents a novel species, for which the name Photobacterium obscurum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SDRW27T (=MCCC 1K06286T=KCTC 82892T).

Abstract
Two Gram-stain-negative, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped, and obligately aerobic bacteria, designated strains CX-624T and cx-311, were isolated from soil samples in Qinghai Province, China. The two strains grew best at 28 °C on the plate with Tryptone soya agar (TSA). Cells formed circular, convex, translucent, smooth, and orange colonies with approximately 1.0 mm diameter after 2 days of incubation on TSA at 28 °C. The strains were oxidase-negative and catalase-positive. The predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0 and anteiso-C15 : 0, and major polar lipids included phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminophospholipid, four unidentified lipids and an aminolipid. MK-6 was the sole menaquinone in strain CX-624T. Comparative analysis of the nearly full-length 16S rRNA gene sequences showed strains CX-624T and cx-311 were member of the family Weeksellaceae, with the highest similarity to Kaistella haifensis H38T (96.66 %), Epilithonimonas pallida DSM 18015T (96.59 %), and Chryseobacterium gambrini DSM 18014T (96.53 %). Both phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene and 177 core genes revealed that strains CX-624T and cx-311 formed an independent clade. Average nucleotide identity values (< 72.64 %), average amino-acid identity values (<72.61 %) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (< 21.10 %) indicated that the strains CX-624T and cx-311 should constitute a novel genus. The DNA G+C contents of strains CX-624T and cx-311 were 43.0 mol% and 42.7 mol%. According to the data obtained in this study, strain CX-624T represents a novel species belonging to a novel genus of the Weeksellaceae, for which the name Marnyiella aurantia gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CX-624T (=GDMCC 1.1714T = JCM 33925T).

Abstract
Three novel strains in the genus Shewanella, designated A3AT, C31T and C32, were isolated from mangrove sediment samples. They were facultative anaerobic, Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, flagellum-harbouring, oxidase- and catalase-positive, electrogenic and capable of using Fe(III) as an electron acceptor during anaerobic growth. Results of phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene and genomic sequences revealed that the strains should be assigned to the genus Shewanella. The 16S rRNA gene similarity, average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between the isolates and their closely related species were below the respective cut-off values for species differentiation. The 16S rRNA gene similarity, ANI and dDDH values between strains C31T and C32 were 99.7, 99.9 and 99.9 %, respectively, indicating that they should belong to the same genospecies. Based on polyphasic taxonomic approach, two novel species are proposed, Shewanella ferrihydritica sp. nov. with type strain A3AT (GDMCC 1.2732T=JCM 34899T) and Shewanella electrica sp. nov. with type strain C31T (GDMCC 1.2736T=JCM 34902T).

Abstract
A Gram-stain-positive, catalase-positive, non-motile bacteria, with a rod-coccus cycle (designated as EH-1B-1T) was isolated from a soil sample from Union Glacier in Ellsworth Mountains, Antarctica. Strain EH-1B-1T had an optimal growth temperature of 28 °C and grew at pH 7-10. The major cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 0, C16 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. The G+C content based on the whole genome sequence was 63.1 mol%. Strain EH-1B-1T was most closely related to members of the genus Arthrobacter, namely Arthrobacter subterraneus and Arthrobacter tumbae. The strain grew on tryptic soy agar, Reasoner's 2A agar, lysogeny broth agar and nutrient agar. The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain EH-1B-1T and its closest reference type strains ranged from 78 to 88 % and from 20.9 to 36.3 %, respectively. Based on phenotypic, chemotypic and genotypic evidence, it is proposed that strain EH-1B-1T represents a novel species of Arthrobacter, for which the name Arthrobacter vasquezii sp. nov. is proposed, with strain EH-1B-1T (RGM 3386T=LMG 32961T) as the type strain.

Abstract
A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped, nonmotile and yellow-pigmented bacterium designated E7-10T was isolated from a bleached scleractinian coral Porites lutea. Strain E7-10T grew with 1.0-8.0 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 4.0 %), at 18-41 °C (optimum, 28 °C) and at pH 6.0-10.0 (optimum, pH 8.0). Phylogenetic analysis using 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that E7-10T formed a lineage within the genus Hoeflea, but it was distinct from the closest species 'Hoeflea prorocentri' PM5-8T, showing 98.01 % sequence similarity. The predominant cellular fatty acids of E7-10T were summed feature 8 (26.7 %), C18 : 1 ω7c 11-methyl (26.2 %), C16 : 0 (20.8 %) and C19 : 0 cyclo ω8c (17.9 %). The major respiratory quinone was Q-10. The polar lipids mainly comprised phosphatidylethanolamine, two glycolipids and five phospholipids. The genome size of E7-10T was 5.58 Mb with G+C content 60.27 mol%. The digital DNA-DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values between the genomes of strains E7-10T and PM5-8T were 19.50 and 75.95 %, respectively, which were both below the defined cutoff values (70 % and 95-96 %, respectively) for species delimitation. Thus, strain E7-10T represents a novel species within the genus Hoeflea, for which the name Hoeflea poritis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is E7-10T (=JCM 35852T=MCCC 1K08229T).

Abstract
A novel strain of the genus Lactobacillus, named AMBV1719T, was isolated from the vagina of a healthy participant in our large-scale citizen science project on the female microbiome, named Isala. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the 16S rRNA gene of AMBV1719T is most similar to that of Lactobacillus taiwanensis with a sequence similarity of 99.873 %. However, a genome-wide comparison using average nucleotide identity (ANI) revealed that isolate AMBV1719T showed the highest ANI with Lactobacillus paragasseri JCM 5343T, with a value of only 88.17 %. This low ANI value with the most closely related strains known to date indicated that AMBV1719T represents a distinct species. This strain has a limited ability to degrade carbon sources compared to Lactobacillus gasseri, indicating its adaptation to the host. Its genome has a length of 2.12 Mb with a G+C content of 34.8 mol%. We thus propose the name Lactobacillus isalae sp. nov. for this novel species, with AMBV1719T (=LMG 32886T=CECT 30756T) as the type strain.

Abstract
In 2019, two distinct bacterial isolates were independently isolated from the fecal samples of separate dogs in Beijing, China. These cells exhibit microaerobic, are Gram-negative, motile, and possess a characteristic spiral shape with bipolar single flagellum. They display positive results for the oxidase test while being negative for both catalase and urease. These organisms measure approximately 0.2-0.3 μm in width and 4.5-6 μm in length. The colonies are wet, flat, grey, circular, and smooth with sizes ranging from 1 to 2 mm in diameter after 2 days of growth. However, strains may exhibit variations in size and morphology following extended incubation. Phylogenetic analyses based on the 16S rRNA gene and core genome indicated that these two isolates belong to the genus Helicobacter and formed a robust clade that was remains distinctly separate from currently recognized species. These two isolates shared low dDDH relatedness and ANI values with their closest species Helicobacter canis CCUG 32756T, with these values falling below the commonly cutoff values for strains of the same species. The genomic DNA G + C contents of strain XJK30-2 were 44.93 mol%. Comparing the phenotypic and phylogenetic features between these two isolates and their closely related species, XJK30-2 represents a novel species within the genus Helicobacter, for which the name Helicobacter zhangjianzhongii sp. nov. (Type strain XJK30-2T = GDMCC 1.3695T) is proposed.

Abstract
Providencia rettgeri is a clinically significant opportunistic pathogen that is involved in urinary tract infections. Due to the resolution limitations of identification, distinguishing P. rettgeri from closely related species is challenging by commercial biochemical test systems. Here, we first reported a novel species, Providencia hangzhouensis, which had been misidentified as P. rettgeri. Exhibiting ≤91.97% average nucleotide identity (ANI) and ≤46.10% in silico DNA-DNA hybridization values with all known Providencia species, P. hangzhouensis falls well beneath the established species-defining thresholds. We conducted a population genomics analysis of P. hangzhouensis isolates worldwide. Our study revealed that P. hangzhouensis has emerged in many countries and has formed several transmission clusters. We found that P. hangzhouensis shared the highest ANI values (91.54% and 91.97%) with P. rettgeri and P. huaxiensis, respectively. The pan-genome analysis revealed that these three species possessed a similar component of pan-genomes. Two genes associated with metabolism, folE2 and ccmM, were identified to be specific to P. hangzhouensis. Furthermore, we also observed that carbapenem-resistance genes frequently occur in P. hangzhouensis with the blaIMP-27 being the most prevalent (46.15%; 36/78). The emergence of P. hangzhouensis is often accompanied by extended-spectrum β-lactamase and carbapenem-resistance genes, and calls for tailored surveillance of this species as a clinically relevant species in the future. IMPORTANCE Our study has identified and characterized a novel species, Providencia hangzhouensis, which is associated with urinary tract infections and was previously misidentified as Providencia rettgeri. Through this study, we have identified specific genes unique to P. hangzhouensis, which could serve as marker genes for rapid PCR identification. Additionally, our findings suggest that the emergence of P. hangzhouensis is often accompanied by extended-spectrum β-lactamase and carbapenem-resistance genes, emphasizing the need for attention to clinical management and the importance of accurate species identification and proper drug use.

Abstract
Campylobacter is among the four main causes of gastroenteritis worldwide. Most reported Campylobacter infections are caused by C. jejuni and C. coli. However, other emerging Campylobacter pathogens have been recognized as important pathogens in humans and animals. A novel bacterial strain, PS10T, was isolated from the gastric mucous of pigs in 2022 in Beijing, China. The cell was Gram-negative, microaerobic, motile, and negative for catalase, oxidase, and urease. Phylogenetic and phylogenomic analyses based on the 16S rRNA gene and core genome indicated that this isolate belongs to the genus Campylobacter. There were low dDDH relatedness and ANI values shared within this strain and its closest species C. mucosalis below the cut-off values generally recognized for isolates of the same species. The draft genome size of PS10T is 2,240,910 bp in length with a percentage of DNA G+C contents of 37.72%. Comparing the phenotypic and phylogenetic features among this isolate and its related organisms, strain PS10T represents a novel species within the genus Campylobacter, for which the name Campylobacter gastrosuis sp. nov. (Type strain PS10T = GDMCC 1.3686T = JCM 35849T) is proposed.

Abstract
A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, non-pigmented, rod-shaped bacterium was isolated from a freshwater sample of Nakdong River in South Korea and designated as strain BK-30T. An analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain BK-30T revealed its closest phylogenetic neighbors were members of the genus Macromonas. Specifically, the strain formed a robust clade with Macromonas bipunctata DSM 12705T, sharing 98.4% similarity in their 16S rRNA gene sequences. The average nucleotide identity value between strain BK-30T and M. bipunctata DSM 12705T was 79.8%, and the genome-to-genome distance averaged 21.3%, indicating the representation of a novel genomic species. Strain BK-30T exhibited optimum growth at 30 °C and pH 7.0, in the absence of NaCl. The major respiratory isoprenoid quinone identified was ubiquinone-8 (Q-8). The principal fatty acids detected were C16:1ω7c and/or C16:1ω6c (49.6%), C16:0 (27.5%), and C18:1ω7c and/or C18:1 ω6c (9.2%). The DNA G+C content of the strain was determined to be 67.3 mol%. Based on these data, we propose a novel species within the genus Macromonas, named Macromonas nakdongensis sp. nov., to accommodate the bacterial isolate. Strain BK-30T is designated as the type strain (=KCTC 52161T = JCM 31376T = FBCC-B1). Additionally, we present the isolation and complete genome sequence of a lytic phage infecting strain BK-30T, named BK-30P. This bacteriophage is the first reported to infect Macromonas, leading us to propose the name "Macromonasphage".

Abstract
A novel bacterial species is described that was isolated from the soil of Norrbyskär island (Sweden). This Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic and motile rod, designated 17-6T, was classified in the family Chromobacteriaceae, class Betaproteobacteria, and further characterized by a polyphasic approach. Comparative 16S rRNA gene analysis revealed the potential species novelty of the strain, with Silvimonas terrae (98.20 % similarity) and Silvimonas amylolytica (98.13 %) being its closest type strains. The phylogenetic novelty of the isolate at the level of species was confirmed using phylogenetic analyses based on the whole genome: average nucleotide identity values ranged from 79 to 81 %, average amino acid identity values from 75 to 81 % and percentage of conserved proteins values from 69-81 % with the members of genera Silvimonas and Amantichitinum. On the basis of phenotypic, phylogenetic, functional and genotypic analyses, we propose the isolate as the type strain of a novel species within the genus Silvimonas with the designation Silvimonas soli 17-6T (=DSM 115342T=CCM 9308T).

Abstract
Biosurfactants reduce surface and interfacial tension due to their amphiphilic properties and are an eco-friendly alternative for chemical surfactants. In this study, a new yeast strain JAF-11 that produces a biosurfactant was selected using drop collapse method, and the properties of the extracts were investigated. The nucleotide sequences of the strain were compared with closely related strains and identified based on the D1/D2 domain of the large subunit ribosomal DNA (LSU) and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions. Neodothiora populina CPC 39399T, the closest species with strain JAF-11, showed a sequence similarity of 97.75% for LSU and 94.27% for ITS, respectively. The result suggests that the strain JAF-11 represents a distinct species that cannot be assigned to any existing genus or species in the family Dothideaceae. Strain JAF-11 produced a biosurfactant reducing the surface tension of water from 72 mN/m to 34.5 mN/m on the sixth day of culture and the result of measuring the critical micelle concentration (CMC) by extracting the crude biosurfactant was found to be 24 mg/l. The molecular weight 502 of the purified biosurfactant was confirmed by measuring the fast atom bombardment mass spectrum. The chemical structure was analyzed by measuring 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), 13C NMR, and two-dimensional NMRs of the compound. The molecular formula was C26H46O9, and it was composed of one octanoyl group and two hexanoyl groups to myo-inositol moiety. The new biosurfactant is the first report of a compound produced by a new yeast strain, JAF-11.

Abstract
Two Gram-stain positive, aerobic, short-rod-shaped, catalase-positive, oxidase-negative and non-motile strains, designated YIM 101343T and YIM 101645T, were isolated from faeces of Hylobates hoolock and Lemur catta, respectively. The results of 16S rRNA gene analysis indicated that both represented members of the genus Corynebacterium, and they shared a similarity of 98.0 % with each other. Corynebacterium marinum DSM 44953T showed the highest similarity with both strains YIM 101343T (99.0 %) and YIM 101645T (97.3 %). The results of phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene indicated that strain YIM 101343T formed a cluster with C. marinum DSM 44953T and Corynebacterium comes 2019T, strain YIM 101645T formed a cluster with Corynebacterium halotolerans YIM 70093T, and the two clusters were neighbours. The genomic size of strain YIM 101343T was 3068751 bp and that of strain YIM 101645T was 3169714 bp. The dDDH, ANI and AAI values among strains YIM 101343T, YIM 101645T and the closely related species indicated that the two isolates represented two different novel species. Both strains contained meso-diaminopimelic acid and short-chain mycolic acids, and the major menaquinones were MK-9(H2) and MK-8(H2). The major polar lipids of the two strains were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylinositol mannoside. The major fatty acids (>10 %) of both strains were C16 : 0, summed feature 4 and C18 : 1ω9c, but C17 : 1 ω8c was only present as a major component in YIM 101645T . In addition, phenotypic and some chemotaxonomic characteristics of strains YIM 101343T, YIM 101645T and the closely related species were different. Thus, strains YIM 101343T and YIM 101645T should represent two novel species of the genus Corynebacterium, for which the names Corynebacterium hylobatis sp. nov. and Corynebacterium lemuris sp. nov. are proposed, respectively. The type strains are YIM 101343T (=DSM 45970T=CCTCC AB 2013221T) and YIM 101645T (=BCRC 16963T=CCTCC AB 2013281T=KCTC 39868T).

Abstract
Rod-shaped Gram-stain-negative, aerobic bacterial strains, designated PC14 and PC15T, were isolated from a forest soil sample collected in Pyeongchang county, Gangwon-do, Republic of Korea. Strains PC14 and PC15T grew at 15-37 °C (optimum, 28-30 °C in tryptone soya agar and Mueller-Hinton agar), hydrolysed chitin and casein, and tolerated pH 8.5 and 2 % (w/v) NaCl. The strains were most closely related to members of the genus Chitinophaga, namely Chitinophaga arvensicola DSM 3695T (98.4 %), Chitinophaga longshanensis Z29T (98.3 %), Chitinophaga ginsengisegetis Gsoil 040T (97.8 %), Chitinophaga polysaccharea MRP-15T (97.8 %) and Chitinophaga niastensis JS16-4T (97.7 %). The type strain grew well on conventional commercial media in the laboratory, including tryptone soya agar, Mueller-Hinton agar, Reasoner's 2A agar, nutrient agar and Luria-Bertani agar. The major polar lipid profile comprised phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminolipid and unidentified polar lipids. The major respiratory quinone was menaquinone-7. The main fatty acids were iso-C15:0, C16:1 ω5c, C16:0 3-OH, iso-C15:0 3-OH and iso-C17:0 3-OH. The DNA G+C content of the isolated strain based on the whole genome sequence was 46.6 mol%. The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between strains PC14 and PC15T and the reference type strains ranged from 71.0 to 76.5 %, and from 20.3 to 20.7 %, respectively. Based on phenotypic, chemotypic and genotypic evidence, strain PC15T could be differentiated phylogenetically and phenotypically from the recognized species of the genus Chitinophaga. Therefore, strain PC15T is considered to represent a novel species, for which the name Chitinophaga nivalis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is PC15T (=KACC 22893T=JCM 35788T).

Sharma A, Kaur E, Joshi R, Kumari P, Khatri A, Swarnkar MK, Kumar D, Acharya V, Nadda G. Systematic analyses with genomic and metabolomic insights reveal a new species, Ophiocordyceps indica sp. nov. from treeline area of Indian Western Himalayan region. Front Microbiol 2023; 14:1188649.

Abstract
Ophiocordyceps is a species-rich genus in the order Hypocreales (Sordariomycetes, Ascomycota) depicting a fascinating relationship between microbes and insects. In the present study, a new species, Ophiocordyceps indica sp. nov., is discovered infecting lepidopteran larvae from tree line locations (2,202-2,653 m AMSL) of the Kullu District, Himachal Pradesh, Indian Western Himalayan region, using combinations of morphological and molecular phylogenetic analyses. A phylogeny for Ophiocordyceps based on a combined multigene (nrSSU, nrLSU, tef-1α, and RPB1) dataset is provided, and its taxonomic status within Ophiocordycipitaceae is briefly discussed. Its genome size (~59 Mb) revealed 94% genetic similarity with O. sinensis; however, it differs from other extant Ophiocordyceps species based on morphological characteristics, molecular phylogenetic relationships, and genetic distance. O. indica is identified as the second homothallic species in the family Ophiocordycipitaceae, after O. sinensis. The presence of targeted marker components, viz. nucleosides (2,303.25 μg/g), amino acids (6.15%), mannitol (10.13%), and biological activity data, suggests it to be a new potential source of nutraceutical importance. Data generated around this economically important species will expand our understanding regarding the diversity of Ophiocordyceps-like taxa from new locations, thus providing new research avenues.
