Abstract:
Two yellow bacterial strains, designated NBD5 T and NBD8, isolated from Noni ( Morinda citrifolia L.) branch were investigated using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Cells were Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-spore-forming, non-motile and short rod-shaped. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences suggested that the strains were members of a novel species of the genus Sphingomonas , the seven closest neighbours being Sphingomonas oligoaromativorans SY-6 T (96.9 % similarity), Sphingomonas polyaromaticivorans B2-7 T (95.8 %), Sphingomonas yantingensis 1007 T (94.9 %), Sphingomonas sanguinis IFO 13937 T (94.7 %), Sphingomonas ginsenosidimutans Gsoil 1429 T (94.6 %), Sphingomonas wittichii RW1 T (94.6 %) and Sphingomonas formosensis CC-Nfb-2 T (94.5 %). Strains NBD5 T and NBD8 had sphingoglycolipid, phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylcholine as the major polar lipids, ubiquinone 10 as the predominant respiratory quinone, and sym -homospermidine as the major polyamine. Strains NBD5 T and NBD8 were clearly distinguished from reference type strains based on phylogenetic analysis, DNA–DNA hybridization, fatty acid composition data analysis, and comparison of a range of physiological and biochemical characteristics. It is evident from the genotypic and phenotypic data that strains NBD5 T and NBD8 represent a novel species of the genus Sphingomonas , for which the name Sphingomonas morindae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NBD5 T ( = DSM 29151 T = KCTC 42183 T = CICC 10879 T ).
