Abstract:
A Gram-staining-negative, strictly aerobic, rod-shaped, pale-pink pigmented bacterial strain, designated TF8 T , was isolated from leaf mould in Cheonan, Republic of Korea. Its taxonomic position was determined through a polyphasic approach. Optimal growth occurred on R2A agar without NaCl supplementation, at 25–28 °C and at pH 6.0–7.0. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain TF8 T belongs to the genus Mucilaginibacter in the family Sphingobacteriaceae . The sequence similarity between 16S rRNA genes of strain TF8 T and the type strains of other species of the genus Mucilaginibacter ranged from 92.1 to 94.7 %. The closest relatives of strain TF8 T were Mucilaginibacter lutimaris BR-3 T (94.7 %), M. soli R9-65 T (94.5 %), M. litoreus BR-18 T (94.5 %), M. rigui WPCB133 T (94.0 %) and M. daejeonensis Jip 10 T (93.8 %). The major isoprenoid quinone was MK-7 and the major cellular fatty acids were iso-C 15 : 0 (33.0 %), summed feature 3 (C 16 : 1 ω7 c and/or C 16 : 1 ω6 c ; 24.8 %) and summed feature 8 (C 18 : 1 ω7 c and/or C 18 : 1 ω6 c ; 13.0 %). The major polar lipids of TF8 T were phosphatidylethanolamine and three unidentified aminophospholipids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 46.2 mol%. On the basis of the data presented here, strain TF8 T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Mucilaginibacter , for which the name Mucilaginibacter koreensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is TF8 T ( = KACC 17468 T = JCM 19323 T ).
