RESUMEN
Two Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, non-motile, strictly aerobic strains, forming yellow colonies and designated F6058T and S2608T, were isolated from marine sediment collected in Weihai, PR China. Both strains grow at 4-40â°C (optimum, 30-33â°C), pH 6.0-7.5 (optimum, pH 6.5) and in the presence of 0-7.0â% (w/v) NaCl. The optimum NaCl concentrations for strains F6058T and S2608T were 2.0â% and 2.5â%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strains F6058T and S2608T share an evolutionary lineage with members of the genus Aequorivita. The isolates exhibited a 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 96.7â% to each other. Strains F6058T exhibited the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Aequorivita xiaoshiensis F64183T (98.8â%), and S2608T was most similar to Aequorivita capsosiphonis A71T (96.9â%). Iso-C15:0, anteiso-C15:0 and iso-C17:0 3-OH were the major fatty acids of strains F6058T and S2608T. The sole respiratory quinone of both isolates was menaquinone 6 (MK-6). The polar lipid profiles of the isolates both consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphoglycolipids; however, strain F6058T exhibited one glycolipid, one aminolipid and two unidentified polar lipids, and strain S2608T also had two glycolipids and one unidentified polar lipid. The DNA G+C contents of strains F6058T and S2608T were 34.6â% and 37.7âmol%, respectively. Based on their phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and genomic characteristics, strains F6058T and S2608T were considered to represent novel species of the genus Aequorivita, for which the names Aequorivita sediminis sp. nov. and Aequorivita marina sp. nov. were proposed. The type strains are F6058T (=KCTC 92653T=MCCC 1H01358T) and S2608T (KCTC 92652T=MCCC 1H01361T).

A Gram-stain-negative, facultative anaerobic, motile, rod-shaped and orange bacterium, designated A06T, was obtained off the coast of Weihai, PR China. Cells were 0.4-0.5×0.6-1.0 µm in size. Strain A06T grew at 20-40 °C (optimum, 33 °C), at pH 6.0-8.0 (optimum, pH 6.5-7.0) and in the presence of 0-8â% NaCl (w/v) (optimum, 2â%). Cells were oxidase and catalase positive. Menaquinone-7 was detected as the major respiratory quinone. The dominant cellular fatty acids were identified as C15:0 2-OH, iso-C15:0, anteiso-C15:0 and iso-C15:1 ω6c. The DNA G+C content of strain A06T was 46.1âmol%. The polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, one aminolipid, one glycolipid and three unidentified lipids. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain A06T is a member of the family Prolixibacteraceae and exhibited the highest sequence similarity to Mangrovibacterium diazotrophicum DSM 27148T (94.3â%). Based on its phylogenetic and phenotypic characteristics, strain A06T is considered to represent a novel genus in the family Prolixibacteraceae, for which the name Gaoshiqia gen. nov. is proposed. The type species is Gaoshiqia sediminis sp. nov., with type strain A06T (=KCTC 92029T=MCCC 1H00491T). The identification and acquisition of microbial species and genes in sediments will help broaden the understanding of microbial resources and lay a foundation for its application in biotechnology. Strain A06T uses an enrichment method, so the isolation of strain A06T is of great significance to the enrichment of marine microbial resources.

Polyethylene (PE) is the most widely produced synthetic polymer and the most abundant plastic waste worldwide due to its recalcitrance to biodegradation and low recycle rate. Microbial degradation of PE has been reported, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, we isolated a Rhodococcus strain A34 from 609 day enriched cultures derived from naturally weathered plastic waste and identified the potential key PE degradation enzymes. After 30 days incubation with A34, 1% weight loss was achieved. Decreased PE molecular weight, appearance of C-O and CâO on PE, palmitic acid in the culture supernatant, and pits on the PE surface were observed. Proteomics analysis identified multiple key PE oxidation and depolymerization enzymes including one multicopper oxidase, one lipase, six esterase, and a few lipid transporters. Network analysis of proteomics data demonstrated the close relationships between PE degradation and metabolisms of phenylacetate, amino acids, secondary metabolites, and tricarboxylic acid cycles. The metabolic roadmap generated here provides critical insights for optimization of plastic degradation condition and assembly of artificial microbial communities for efficient plastic degradation.

Bacterial predation is a vital feeding behavior that affects community structure and maintains biodiversity. However, predatory bacterial species in coastal sediments are comparatively poorly described. In this study, the predation capacity of all nine culturable Bradymonabacteria strains belonging to the recently discovered order Bradymonadales was determined against different types of prey. The predatory efficiency of Bradymonabacteria increased as the initial prey proportion in a mixed culture decreased. When the initial prey proportion was 0.5, the number of surviving prey bacterial cells significantly decreased after 4 h of predation with the Bradymonabacteria strains TMQ1, SEH01, B210 and FA350. However, growth of the prey strain occurred in the presence of the Bradymonabacteria strains TMQ4, TMQ2, TMQ3, V1718 and YN101. When the initial prey proportion decreased to 0.1 or 0.01, most of the Bradymonabacteria strains preyed efficiently. Furthermore, established neighboring colonies of prey were destroyed by Bradymonabacteria. This invading predation capacity was determined by the predation ability of the strain and its motility on the agar surface. Our findings provide new insights into the potential ecological significance of predatory Bradymonabacteria, which may serve as a potential probiotic for use in the aquaculture.

Two Gram-stain negative, facultative anaerobic, oxidase-negative, catalase-positive bacilli, designated as strains TMQ4T and TMQ2, were isolated from Xiaoshi Island, China, using prey-traps. Growth was observed within the ranges 25-45 °C (optimally at 37 °C), pH 6.5-9.0 (optimally at pH 7.5-8.0) and 1-8% NaCl (optimally at 3-4%, w/v). The draft genome sequences of strains TMQ4T and TMQ2 contained 184 contigs of 5,609,735 bp with a G+C content of 64.4% and 148 contigs of 5,589,985 bp with a G+C content of 65.0%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that both strains belonged to the genus Lujinxingia with the similarity of 98.9%. The phylogenetic and phylogenomic topologies and analyses demonstrated that both strains clustered together and differentiated from the closest neighbour, Lujinxingia sediminis SEH01T. Genomic analyses showed that two strains lost the biosynthesis pathway of several chemical compounds. Iso-C15:0 was contained in the predominant cellular fatty acids in both strains. The major polar lipids of both strains consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, and unidentified lipids; and the respiratory quinone was menaquinone MK-7 for both strains. Both strains predated other bacteria, including Owenweeksia hongkongensis JCM 12287T and Paraliobacillus ryukyuensis DSM 15140T, and were lured with one prey Acinetobacter baumannii ATCC 19606T in prey-trap. Combining genomic analyses, two strains had the predatory indices of 2, similar to representative typical bacterial predators. The physiological, biochemical, and phylogenetic properties suggest that the two strains represent a novel species within the genus Lujinxingia. The name Lujinxingia vulgaris sp. nov. is proposed, with strain TMQ4T (= KCTC 62851T = MCCC 1H00392T) as type strain and strain TMQ2 (= KCTC 72,079 = MCCC 1H00381) as reference strain.

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped, oxidase-positive, red-pigmented bacterium, strain N3T, was isolated from Fuxian lake, a freshwater lake in Yunnan Province, PR China. Strain N3T was facultatively anaerobic, heterotrophic and negative for catalase. Optimal growth occurred at 30 °C (range 4-45 °C), pH 7.0-8.0 (range 6.5-9.5) and in the presence of 0-3â% (w/v) NaCl (range 0-3â%). The results of phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing revealed that strain N3T was close to the type strains of Algoriphagus aquaeductus, Algoriphagus shivajiensis and Algoriphagus alkaliphilus with sequence similarities of 97.4, 97.3 and 97.2â% respectively. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 43.9 mol%. The quinone system contained menaquinone MK-7 as the sole component. The major fatty acids were iso-C15â:â0, summed feature 9 (10-methyl C16â:â0 and/or iso-C17â:â1 ω9c), summed feature 3 (C16â:â1 ω6c and/or C16â:â1 ω 7c) and iso-C16â:â0. Major polar lipids were phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified glycolipid, one unidentified phospholipid, two unidentified aminolipids and four unidentified lipids. On the basis of physiological, chemotaxonomic and molecular properties as well as phylogenetic distinctiveness, strain N3T should be placed into the genus Algoriphagus as a novel species, for which the name Algoriphagus lacus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is N3T (=KCTC 62622T=MCCC 1H00308T).

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic and curved-rod-shaped bacterium, designated QM202T, was isolated from red algae (Gracilaria blodgettii). Cells of strain QM202T were 0.2-0.3 µm wide and 1.0-2.5 µm long, catalase-negative and oxidase-positive. The strain exhibited an agar-degrading activity. It was motile by means of a single polar flagellum. Optimal growth occurred at 28-30 °C, pH 7.0-7.5 and in the presence of 2.0-3.0â% (w/v) NaCl. The DNA G+C content was 41.4 mol%. The isoprenoid quinone was identified as Q-8. Phophatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol were the predominant phospholipids. The dominant fatty acids were C18:1ω7c, C16:0 and C16:1ω7c and/or iso-C15:0 2-OH. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain QM202T belonged to the genus Marinomonas. The closest described neighbour in terms of 16S rRNA gene sequence identity was Marinomonas blandensis MED121T (95.5â%). The differential phenotypic properties, together with the phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness indicated that strain QM202T can be considered to represent a novel species, Marinomonas agarivorans sp. nov. The type strain is QM202T (=KCTC 52475T=MCCC 1H00145T).

Kiritimatiellaeota is widespread and ecologically important in various anoxic environments. However, the portion of culturable bacteria within this phylum is quite low and, in fact, there is only one currently described species. In this study, a novel anaerobic, non-motile, coccoid, Gram-stain-negative bacterial strain, designated S-5007T, was isolated from surface marine sediment. The 16S rRNA gene sequence was found to have very low 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to the nearest known type strain, Kiritimatiella glycovorans L21-Fru-ABT (84.9 %). The taxonomic position of the novel isolate was investigated using a polyphasic approach and comparative genomic analysis. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA genes and genomes indicated that strain S-5007T branched within the radiation of the phylum Kiritimatiellaeota. Different from the type strain, strain S-5007T can grow under microaerobic conditions, and the genomes of strain S-5007T and the other strains in its branch have many more antioxidant-related genes. Meanwhile, other different metabolic features deduced from genome analysis supported the separate evolution of the proposed class (strain S-5007T branch) and K. glycovorans L21-Fru-ABT. Based on phylogenetic and phenotypic characterization studies, Tichowtungia aerotolerans gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed with S-5007T (=MCCC 1H00402T=KCTC 15876T) as the type strain, as the ï¬rst representative of novel taxa, Tichowtungiales ord. nov., Tichowtungiaceae fam. nov. in Tichowtungiia class. nov.

A taxonomic study was carried out on strain SH27T, which was isolated from seawater collected around Xiaoshi Island, PR China. Cells of strain SH27T were Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped, orange-pigmented and grew at 15-37 °C (optimum, 28 °C), at pH 6.0-8.0 (pH 7.0) and in 1.0-7.0 % (w/v) NaCl (2.0-3.0 %). The isolate was positive for catalase, but negative for nitrate reduction, oxidase, indole production and urease. Carotenoid pigment was produced. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene placed strain SH27T in the genus Dokdonia with the closest relative being Dokdonia donghaensis KCTC 12391T, exhibiting 96.7 % 16S rRNA gene pairwise similarity. The results of genomic comparisons, including average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization, showed 72.9 and 19.2 % identity to D. donghaensis KCTC 12391T, respectively. The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C15â:â0, iso-C15â:â1 G and iso-C17â:â0 3-OH. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine and two unidentified lipids. Menaquinone-6 was the only respiratory quinone. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 32.9 mol%. On the basis of the phenotypic and phylogenetic data, strain SH27T represents a novel species of the genus Dokdonia, for which the name Dokdonia sinensis sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain SH27T (MCCC 1H00358T=CCTCC AB 2018323T=KCTC 62962T).

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, coccus-shaped, catalase- and oxidase-positive, facultatively anaerobic and pink-pigmented bacterium, designated strain CQN31T, was isolated from sediment of Changqiaohai Lake, Yunnan Province, China. Growth occurred at 4-45 °C (optimum, 37 °C), at pH 6.5-9.5 (optimum, pH 8.0) and with 0-1â% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0â%). C18â:â1 ω7c/C18â:â1 ω6c and C16â:â0 were the predominant fatty acids. Phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG), phosphatidyldimethylethanolamine (PME) and one unidentified aminolipid (AL) were the major polar lipids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 71.5â%. 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons indicated that strain CQN31T shared 96.8â% similarity with Roseomonas wooponensis JCM 19527T and 95.9â% with R. terricola EM0302T. Digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain CQN31T and Roseomonas stagni DSM 19981T, R. rosea DSM 14916T and R. mucosa NCTC 13291T were 21.0, 19.4 and 19.8â%, respectively. Average amino acid identity and average nucleotide identity values between strain CQN31T and R. stagni DSM 19981T, R. rosea DSM 14916T and R. mucosa NCTC 13291T were 73.7, 63.4 and 61.9 %, and 79.2, 77.1 and 77.5%, respectively. Distinct morphological, physiological and genotypic differences from previously described taxa support the classification of strain CQN31T as a representative of a novel species in the genus Roseomonas, for which the name Roseomonas bella sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CQN31T (=KCTC 62447T=MCCC 1H00309T).

Agar-degrading bacteria are crucial drivers for the carbon cycle in the marine environments due to their ability that use algae as a carbon source. Although numerous agar-degrading bacteria and agarases have been reported, little is known about expression levels of agar-degrading genes in wild strains. Here, the genome of an agar-hydrolyzing marine bacterium, Catenovulum maritimus Q1T, was sequenced and annotated with 11 agarase and 2 neoagarooligosaccharide hydrolase genes. Quantitative PCR revealed that all the annotated agar-degrading genes were expressed consistently that initially upregulated and then gradually downregulated under agarose induction. Moreover, the presence of glucose inhibited the agar-degrading ability, in terms of both gene expression and enzymatic activity. These facts indicated the agar-degrading ability of wild bacteria was mainly induced by agarose and repressed by the available carbon source. Additionally, a ß-agarase, AgaQ1, belonging to the GH16 family, with high expression in strain Q1T, was cloned and characterized. Biochemical analysis showed that the recombinant AgaQ1 was substrate-specific, yielding neoagarotetraose and neoagarohexaose as the main products. It exhibited optimal activity at 40 °C, pH 8.0, and an agarose concentration of 1.6% (w/v). Besides, AgaQ1 showed a high-specific activity (757.7 U/mg) and stable enzymatic activity under different ion or agent treatments; thus, AgaQ1 has great potential in industrial applications. KEY POINTS: ⢠The genome of C. maritimus Q1T was sequenced and annotated with 11 agarases and 2 Nabh genes. ⢠The expression of agar-degrading genes in the strain C. maritimus Q1T was induced by agarose. ⢠Glucose was the carbon source utilized prior to agarose for bacterial growth. ⢠A ß-agarase, AgaQ1, with high expression and activity was identified.
