Abstract
A novel Gram-negative, oxidase- and catalase-positive, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain KX21116T, was isolated from the mussel Gigantidas platifrons collected from a cold seep field in the South China Sea. Strain KX21116T grew optimally at 28 °C, pH 6.0 with 3% (w/v) NaCl, under aerobic and microaerobic conditions. Its genome size was 3.16 Mb, with a G+C content of 28.4 mol%. The 16S rRNA sequences revealed that strain KX21116T was closely related to Arcobacter nitrofigilis DSM 7299T (98.77% gene sequence similarity) and Arcobacter acticola AR-13T (95.58%). Phylogenetic and phylogenomic analysis revealed that strain KX21116T clustered with the type species of the genus Arcobacter, with A. nitrofigilis DSM 7299T as its nearest neighbour. The genomic average nucleotide identity (orthoANI) values between strain KX21116T and A. nitrofigilis DSM 7299T were 92.74%, while the in silico DNA-DNA hybridization (GGDC) values of the two strains were 48.8%. The predominant fatty acids are C16:0, C16:1 ω7c/C16:1 ω6c and C18:1 ω7c/C18:1 ω6c. Based on a comparative analysis of phylogenetic, phylogenomic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, strain KX21116T represents a novel species of the genus Arcobacter, for which the name Arcobacter iocasae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KX21116T (=MCCC 1K08505T=KCTC 92900T=JCM 35939T).
期刊介绍:
Published by the Microbiology Society and owned by the International Committee on Systematics of Prokaryotes (ICSP), a committee of the Bacteriology and Applied Microbiology Division of the International Union of Microbiological Societies, International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology is the leading forum for the publication of novel microbial taxa and the ICSP’s official journal of record for prokaryotic names.
The journal welcomes high-quality research on all aspects of microbial evolution, phylogenetics and systematics, encouraging submissions on all prokaryotes, yeasts, microfungi, protozoa and microalgae across the full breadth of systematics including:
Identification, characterisation and culture preservation
Microbial evolution and biodiversity
Molecular environmental work with strong taxonomic or evolutionary content
Nomenclature
Taxonomy and phylogenetics.
