ABSTRACT
Two Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, rod-shaped, non-motile and non-gliding bacteria, designated as XJ19-10T and XJ19-11, were isolated from river water in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, PR China. Cells of these strains were catalase-, oxidase- and gelatinase-positive and contained carotenoids but no flexirubins. Growth occurred at 10-30 °C, pH 7.0-9.0 and with 0-2.5% (w/v) NaCl. On the basis of the results of 16S rRNA gene sequence and genome analyses, the two isolates represented members of the genus Aquiflexum, and the closest relative was Aquiflexum aquatile Z0201T with 16S rRNA gene sequence pairwise similarities of 97.9-98.1%. Furthermore, the average nucleotide identities and digital DNA-DNA hybridization identities between the two isolates and other relatives were all less than 82.9 and 28.2â%, respectively, all below the species delineation thresholds. The results of pan-genomic analysis indicated that the type strain XJ19-10T shared 2813 core gene clusters with other three type strains of members of the genus Aquiflexum, as well as having 623 strain-specific clusters. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, an unidentified aminolipid and unidentified lipids. The predominant fatty acids (>10% of the total contents) were iso-C15 0, iso-C15 1G, iso-C17 0 3-OH and summed feature 9, and MK-7 was the respiratory quinone. On the basis of the results of phenotypic, physiological, chemotaxonomic and genotypic characterization, strains XJ19-10T and XJ19-11 are considered to represent a novel species, for which the name Aquiflexum gelatinilyticum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is XJ19-10T (=CGMCC 1.19385T =KCTC 92266T).
