Abstract:
A Gram-negative, motile, rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated S3-22 T , was isolated from a sediment sample collected from a ballast water tank of a commercial ship and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic characterization. The isolate formed small, light-yellow, semi-translucent and circular colonies on solid complex media. The strain was oxidase- and catalase-positive and metabolized a large number of carbon sources. Chemotaxonomic analysis showed ubiquinone Q-10 as predominant respiratory quinone, phosphatidylglycerol and an unidentified glycolipid as major polar lipids and iso-C 17 : 1 ω 9 c , iso-C 15 : 0 , C 16 : 1 ω 7 c and/or iso-C 15 : 0 2-OH, C 16 : 0 , iso-C 17 : 0 and C 18 : 1 ω 7 c as major fatty acids and the hydroxy fatty acids iso-C 17 : 0 3-OH and C 16 : 0 3-OH. The genomic DNA G+C content was 54.9 mol%. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that the isolate has 96.1 % similarity to the type strain of Kordiimonas gwangyangensis , the sole described species within the order Kordiimonadales , and less than 91.0 % similarity to other recognized species. On the basis of phenotypic and genotypic data, strain S3-22 T represents a novel species of the genus Kordiimonas , for which the name Kordiimonas lacus sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain S3-22 T (=CGMCC 1.9109 T =JCM 16261 T ). An emended description of the genus Kordiimonas is also presented.
