Abstract:
A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile and coccoid, ovoid or rod-shaped bacterium, designated W-WS1 T , was isolated from wood falls collected around Wando, an island located in the South Sea, Republic of Korea. Strain W-WS1 T grew optimally at 30 °C, at pH 7.0–8.0 and in the presence of 0–3.0 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis, based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, showed that strain W-WS1 T belonged to the genus Pedobacter , clustering coherently with the type strains of Pedobacter daechungensis , Pedobacter lentus , Pedobacter terricola , Pedobacter arcticus and Pedobacter glucosidilyticus , showing 94.3–96.3 % sequence similarity. Strain W-WS1 T exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 91.2–94.0 % to the type strains of other species of the genus Pedobacter . Strain W-WS1 T contained MK-7 as the predominant menaquinone and iso-C 15 : 0 , iso-C 17 : 0 3-OH and summed feature 3 (C 16 : 1 ω7 c and/or C 16 : 1 ω6 c ) as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipids detected in strain W-WS1 T were phosphatidylethanolamine and one unidentified lipid. The DNA G+C content of strain W-WS1 T was 37.7 mol%. The differential phenotypic properties, together with its phylogenetic distinctiveness, revealed that strain W-WS1 T is separated from recognized species of the genus Pedobacter . On the basis of the data presented, strain W-WS1 T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Pedobacter , for which the name Pedobacter silvilitoris sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is W-WS1 T ( = KCTC 42174 T = CECT 8669 T ).
