Abstract
Two Gram-negative, oxidase-positive, catalase-positive, non-spore-forming, motile, short-rod strains (G13T and G34) were isolated from in situ coal block samples. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA genes and 718 core genes indicated that both strains belonged to the genus Brachymonas, with the closest relative being Brachymonas chironomi AIMA4T as their closest relative. Average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values were 79.4-89.27% and 23.6-37.0% below the species-level thresholds. Further chemotaxonomic analysis revealed that both strains possessed C16:1ω7c and/or C16:1ω6c, C18:1ω7c and C16:0 as major cellular fatty acids, with Q-8 as the predominant respiratory quinone. The polar lipid profile was dominated by diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. Phenotypic and phylogenetic evidence support the proposal that strain G13T represents a novel species of the genus Brachymonas, with the name Brachymonas wangyanguii sp. nov. The type strain is G13T (=GDMCC 1.4691T=JCM 37746T).
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.
