Kurzfassung:
A mesophilic bacterium, strain 15-52 T , was isolated from the rhizosphere of Chinese cabbage ( Brassica campestris ). On the basis of phenotypic and genotypic characteristics, the bacterium was identified as representing a novel species belonging to the genus Pedobacter . The strain is non-flagellated, non-spore-forming and grows at temperatures in the range 1–37 °C. Physiological tests of the strain showed the presence of oxidase, catalase, protease (gelatin and casein hydrolysis), β -glucosidase and β -galactosidase activities. The highest levels of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity were found with respect to Pedobacter roseus CL-GP80 T (97.3 %) and Pedobacter sandarakinus DS-27 T (97.2 %). A phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence data indicated that strain 15-52 T is a member of the genus Pedobacter . DNA–DNA hybridization analysis revealed low levels of relatedness ( 〈 42.3 %) between the isolate and two phylogenetically related type strains, P. roseus KCCM 42272 T and P. sandarakinus KCTC 12559 T . The DNA G+C content is 44.2 mol% and the predominant fatty acids are iso-C 15 : 0 (35.4 %), iso-C 15 : 0 2-OH and/or C 16 : 1 ω 7 c (27.8 %) and iso-C 17 : 0 3-OH (15.8 %). On the basis of these data, strain 15-52 T represents a novel species of the genus Pedobacter , for which the name Pedobacter suwonensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 15-52 T (=KACC 11317 T =DSM 18130 T ).
