- Abstract
A Gram-stain-negative, slightly curved, rod-shaped bacterial strain CAU 1517T was isolated from marine sediment in Busan, the Republic of Korea. The taxonomic position of strain CAU 1517T was investigated via a polyphasic approach comprising phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic properties. Strain CAU 1517T grew optimally at 30 °C, pH 7.5 and in the presence of 7% (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing revealed that strain CAU 1517T belongs to the genus Halarcobacter and is most closely related to Halarcobacter bivalviorum LMG 26154T (96.5% similarity). The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain CAU 1517T and members of genus Halarcobacter ranged from were 76.7–78.0% and 19.5–21.2%, respectively. The strain contained menaquinone-6 (MK-6) as the only respiratory quinone, and C16:0, summed feature 3 (C16:1ω7c/C16:1ω6c), and summed feature 8 (C18:1ω7c/C18:1ω6c) as the major fatty acids. The polar lipid pattern consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, and two unidentified aminophospholipids. The G+C content was 28.2 mol%. Therefore, it has been demonstrated that the isolate represents a novel species of the genus Halarcobacter, for which the name Halarcobacter arenosus sp. nov., is proposed. The type strain is CAU 1517T (=KCTC 72232T =NBRC 113955T).
