摘要

A Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, yellow-pigmented, non-gliding, oval to rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated JB01H24(T), belonging to the family Flavobacteriaceae, was isolated from marine surface sediment collected from the Ross Sea, Antarctica. Strain JB01H24(T) grew at 4-40 degrees C (optimum 25-30 degrees C), pH 7.0-9.0 (optimum 7.5-8.0), and in the presence of 08% NaCl (optimum 3 %, w/v). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain JB01H24(T) formed an independent linkage within the family Flavobacteriaceae and was closely related with the genus Gillisia. Strain JB01H24(T) exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities of 95.3-91.5% and 94.9-94.0% to the type strains of the genera Gillisia and Salinimicrobium, respectively. The major fatty acids (> 5 %) were iso-C-15:0, summed feature 3 (C-16:1 omega 6c and/or C-16:1 omega 7c), anteiso-C-15:0, iso-C-15:1 G and summed feature 9 (iso-C-17:1 omega 9c and/or 10-methyl C-16:0). The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, seven unidentified lipids, two unidentified aminolipids and an unidentified aminophospholipid. Strain JB01H24(T) contained menaquinone-6 as the only ubiquinone. The DNA G+C content was 42.4 mol%. On the basis of phylogenetic, physiological and chemotaxonomic properties, strain JB01H24(T) is considered to represent a novel species of a new genus within the family Flavobacteriaceae, for which the name Antarcticibacterium flavum gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Antarcticibacterium flavum is JB01H24(T) (=GDMCC 1.1229(T) =KCTC 52984(T)).
