RESUMEN
Two Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, non-motile, non-flagellated bacteria, designated strains D6T and DH64T, were isolated from surface water of the Pacific Ocean. For strain D6T, growth occurred at 10-40â°C, pH 5.5-9.0 and in the presence of 0-8.0â% NaCl (w/v). For strain DH64T, growth occurred at 10-40â°C, pH 5.5-8.5 and in the presence of 0.5-8.0â% NaCl (w/v). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strains D6T and DH64T both belonged to the genera Flagellimonas, with the highest sequence identities to Flagellimonas taeanensis JCM 17757T (98.2â%) and Flagellimonas marinaquae JCM 11811T (98.6â%), respectively. The 16S rRNA gene sequence identity between strains D6T and DH64T was 95.9â%. The average amino acid identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between the two strains and the nearest phylogenetic neighbours were 66.7-93.3â% and 16.1-38.5â%, respectively. The major respiratory quinone of both strains was menaquinone-6. The major polar lipid was phosphatidylethanolamine. The major fatty acids were identified similarly as iso-C15â:â1 G, iso-C15â:â0 and iso-C17â:â0 3-OH. The genomic G+C contents of strains D6T and DH64T were determined to be 45.5 and 42.6 mol%, respectively. The combined genotypic and phenotypic data show that the strains represent two novel species within genera Flagellimonas, for which the names Flagellimonas baculiformis sp. nov. and Flagellimonas crocea sp. nov. are proposed, with type strains D6T (=MCCC M28982T=KCTC 92604T) and DH64T (=MCCC M28986T=KCTC 92975T).

Two Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped and non-motile strains, designated as DY56-A-20T and G39T, were isolated from deep-sea sediment of the Pacific Ocean and deep-sea seawater of the Indian Ocean, respectively. Strain DY56-A-20T was found to grow at 15-37â°C (optimum, 28â°C), at pH 6.0-10.0 (optimum, pH 6.5-7.0) and in 0.5-6.0â% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 1.0-2.0â%), while strain G39T was found to grow at 10-42â°C (optimum, 35-40â°C), at pH 5.5-10.0 (optimum, pH 6.5-7.0) and in 0-12.0â% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 1.0-2.0â%). The 16S rRNA gene sequence identity analysis indicated that strain DY56-A-20T had the highest sequence identity with Qipengyuania marisflavi KEM-5T (97.6â%), while strain G39T displayed the highest sequence identity with Qipengyuania citrea H150T (98.8â%). The phylogenomic reconstruction indicated that both strains formed independent clades within the genus Qipengyuania. The digital DNA-DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values between strains DY56-A-20T/G39T and Qipengyuania/Erythrobacter type strains were 17.8-23.8â% and 70.7-81.1â%, respectively, which are below species delineation thresholds. The genome DNA G+C contents were 65.0 and 63.5âmol% for strains DY56-A-20T and G39T, respectively. The predominant cellular fatty acids (>10â%) of strain DY56-A-20T were C17â:â1 ω6c, summed feature 8 and summed feature 3, and the major cellular fatty acids of strain G39T were C17â:â1 ω6c and summed feature 8. The major polar lipids in both strains were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, sphingoglycolipid and an unidentified polar lipid. The only respiratory quinone present in both strains was ubiquinone-10. Based on those genotypic and phenotypic results, the two strains represent two novel species belonging to the genus Qipengyuania, for which the names Qipengyuania benthica sp. nov. and Qipengyuania profundimaris sp. nov. are proposed. The type strain of Q. benthica is DY56-A-20T (=MCCC M27941T=KCTC 92309T), and the type strain of Q. profundimaris is G39T (=MCCC M30353T=KCTC 8208T).

Aerobic anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria (AAPB) contribute profoundly to the global carbon cycle. However, most AAPB in marine environments are uncultured and at low abundance, hampering the recognition of their functions and molecular mechanisms. In this study, we developed a new culture-independent method to identify and sort AAPB using single-cell Raman/fluorescence spectroscopy. Characteristic Raman and fluorescent bands specific to bacteriochlorophyll a (Bchl a) in AAPB were determined by comparing multiple known AAPB with non-AAPB isolates. Using these spectroscopic biomarkers, AAPB in coastal seawater, pelagic seawater, and hydrothermal sediment samples were screened, sorted, and sequenced. 16S rRNA gene analysis and functional gene annotations of sorted cells revealed novel AAPB members and functional genes, including one species belonging to the genus Sphingomonas, two genera affiliated to classes Betaproteobacteria and Gammaproteobacteria, and function genes bchCDIX, pucC2, and pufL related to Bchl a biosynthesis and photosynthetic reaction center assembly. Metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) of sorted cells from pelagic seawater and deep-sea hydrothermal sediment belonged to Erythrobacter sanguineus that was considered as an AAPB and genus Sphingomonas, respectively. Moreover, multiple photosynthesis-related genes were annotated in both MAGs, and comparative genomic analysis revealed several exclusive genes involved in amino acid and inorganic ion metabolism and transport. This study employed a new single-cell spectroscopy method to detect AAPB, not only broadening the taxonomic and genetic contents of AAPB in marine environments but also revealing their genetic mechanisms at the single-genomic level.

Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) conduces massive environmental accumulation due to its high production and recalcitrance to environment. In this study, We successfully enriched and isolated two strains, Nitratireductor sp. Z-1 and Gordonia sp. Z-2, from coastal plastic debris capable of degrading LDPE film. After a 30-day incubation at 30 â, strains Z-1 and Z-2 decreased the weight of branched-LDPE (BLDPE) film by 2.59â¯% and 10.27â¯% respectively. Furthermore, high temperature gel permeation chromatography (HT-GPC) analysis revealed molecular weight reductions of 7.69â¯% (Z-1) and 23.22â¯% (Z-2) in the BLDPE film. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) image showed the presence of microbial colonization and perforations on the film's surface. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis indicated novel functional groups, such as carbonyl and carbon-carbon double bonds in LDPE films. During LDPE degradation, both strains produced extracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS). GC-MS analysis revealed the degradation products included short-chain alkanes, alkanols, fatty acids, and esters. Genomic analysis identified numerous extracellular enzymes potentially involved in LDPE chain scission. A model was proposed suggesting a coordinated role between ROS and extracellular enzymes in the biodegradation of LDPE. This indicates strains Z-1 and Z-2 can degrade LDPE, providing a basis for deeper exploration of biodegradation mechanisms.

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated C281T, was isolated from seawater sampled at the Marshallese seamount chain. Results of 16S rRNA gene analysis revealed that strain C281T was most closely related to Membranihabitans marinus CZ-AZ5T with 92.7â% sequence similarity. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the new isolate represented a novel species by forming a distinctive lineage within the family Saprospiraceae. The DNA G+C content of strain C281T was 38.4âmol%. The genome sizes of strain C281T and the reference strain M. marinus CZ-AZ5T were 5 962 917 and 5 395 999 bp, respectively. The average nucleotide identity and in silico DNA-DNA hybridization values between strains C281T and M. marinus CZ-AZ5T were found to be low (69.3 and 17.6â%, respectively). Different functional genes were found in the genome of strain C281T, such as CZC CBA, polysaccharide utilization loci and linear azol(in)e-containing peptide cluster coding genes. The NaCl range for growth was 0.5-15.0â%. Positive results were obtained for hydrolysis of Tween 60 and urease. MK-7 was the sole respiratory quinone. The major fatty acids were C16â:â1 ω6c and/or C16â:â1 ω7c, iso-C15â:â0 and iso-C15â:â1 F. The major polar lipids of strain C281T were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, two unidentified lipids and five unidentified glycolipids.

Kutzneria is a rare genus of Actinobacteria that harbors a variety of secondary metabolite gene clusters and produces several interesting types of bioactive secondary metabolites. Recent efforts have partially elucidated the biosynthetic pathways of some of these bioactive natural products, suggesting the diversity and specificity of secondary metabolism within this genus. Here, we summarized the chemical structures, biosynthetic pathways, and key metabolic enzymes of the secondary metabolites isolated from Kutzneria strains. In-depth comparative genomic analysis of all six available high-quality Kutzneria genomes revealed that the majority (77%) of the biosynthetic gene cluster families of Kutzneria were untapped and identified homologues of key metabolic enzymes in the putative gene clusters, including cytochrome P450s, halogenases, and flavin-dependent N-hydroxylases. The present study suggests that Kutzneria exhibits great potential to synthesize novel secondary metabolites, encodes a variety of valuable metabolic enzymes, and also provides valuable information for the targeted discovery and biosynthesis of novel natural products from Kutzneria.

An aerobic, yellow-pigmented and Gram-stain-negative strain, designated as O-35 T, was isolated from a tidal flat sediment collected in Dangjiang Town, the southern China. Colonies of strain O-35 T were circular with 0.5-1.0 mm in diameter, convex and smooth. Cells of strain O-35 T were coccoid-shaped, non-spore forming, non-motile and the strain could reduce nitrate. Growth of strain O-35 T was observed at 15-40 °C (optimum 30 °C), at pH 6.0-9.5 (optimum 7.5-8.0) and in 0.5-5.0% NaCl (optimum 2%, w/v). Strain O-35 T showed 16S rRNA gene sequence identities of 97.3-97.5% with Sphingomicrobium lutaoense CC-TBT-3 T and Sphingomicrobium aestuariivivum AH-M8T, higher than the rest of Sphingomicrobium type strains. Phylogenetic trees based on the 16S rRNA gene and the core-genome sequences demonstrated that strain O-35 T was affiliated within the genus Sphingomicrobium. Overall genome relatedness index calculations revealed that strain O-35 T had < 75.8% of average nucleotide identity and < 19.2% of digital DNA-DNA hybridization values with Sphingomicrobium type strains. The sole isoprenoid quinone was ubiquinone-10. The major fatty acids (> 10%) were summed feature 8, summed feature 3, C16:0 and C18:1 2-OH. The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, sphingoglycolipid, two unidentified glycolipids, one unidentified lipid and one unidentified phospholipid. On the basis of the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and genomic properties, strain O-35 T represents a novel species in the genus Sphingomicrobium, for which the name Sphingomicrobium nitratireducens sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is O-35 T (= KCTC 92308 T = MCCC 1K07589T).

Bacterial secondary metabolites are rich sources of novel drug leads. The diversity of secondary metabolite biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) in genome-sequenced bacteria, which will provide crucial information for the efficient discovery of novel natural products, has not been systematically investigated. Here, the distribution and genetic diversity of BGCs in 10 121 prokaryotic genomes (across 68 phyla) were obtained from their PRISM4 outputs using a custom python script. A total of 18 043 BGCs are detected from 5743 genomes with non-ribosomal peptide synthetases (25.4%) and polyketides (15.9%) as the dominant classes of BGCs. Bacterial strains harbouring the largest number of BGCs are revealed and BGC count in strains of some genera vary greatly, suggesting the necessity of individually evaluating the secondary metabolism potential. Additional analysis against 102 strains of discovered bacterial genera with abundant amounts of BGCs confirms that Kutzneria, Kibdelosporangium, Moorea, Saccharothrix, Cystobacter, Archangium, Actinosynnema, Kitasatospora, and Nocardia, may also be important sources of natural products and worthy of priority investigation. Comparative analysis of BGCs within these genera indicates the great diversity and novelty of the BGCs. This study presents an atlas of bacterial secondary metabolite BGCs that provides a lot of key information for the targeted discovery of novel natural products.

A Gram-staining-negative, non-motile, strictly aerobic bacterium, designated as strain TT11T, was isolated from a sediment sample of a tidal flat connected in Zhoushan, China. Cells of strain TT11T are spherical, halotolerant, catalase- and oxidase-positive, and produce carotenoid-like pigments. Colonies were 0.5-1.0 mm diameter, smooth, round, convex and orange-yellow after growth on marine agar at 30 °C for 24 h. Growth of the strain TT11T was observed at 10-40 °C (optimum, 35 °C), at pH 6.0-9.5 (optimum, pH 6.5), and in the presence of 0-8.0% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0.5-1.0%). The results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain TT11T represents a member of the genus Aestuariibaculum and was closely related to Aestuariibaculum suncheonense SC17T (97.2%) and Aestuariibaculum marinum IP7T (96.8%). The G + C content of the genome was 34.6%. The only respiratory quinone was MK-6. The major fatty acids (> 10%) were iso-C15:0, iso-C15:1 G and iso-C17:0 3-OH. The major polar lipids contained phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphoglycolipid, four unidentified aminolipids, four unidentified lipids and two unidentified glycolipids. On the basis of these genomic, chemotaxonomic and phenotypic characteristics, we propose a novel species Aestuariibaculum sediminum sp. nov. with the type strain TT11T (= KCTC 82195T = MCCC 1K04734T).

A Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, chemo-organotrophic, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming strain, which produced convex, circular, pink-pigmented colonies, designated as DY32-46T, was isolated from seawater collected from the Pacific Ocean. DY32-46T was found to grow at 20-40 °C (optimum, 30-35 °C), pH 6.0-8.0 (optimum, pH 6.5) and with 0-5â% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 1-2â%). The results of chemotaxonomic analysis indicated that the respiratory quinone of DY32-46T was MK-9(H4), and major fatty acids (>10â%) were C17â:â1 ω8c, summed feature 3 (C16â:â1 ω7c and/or C16â:â1 ω6c), C16â:â0 and C15â:â1 ω6c. The polar lipids included diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, one unidentified aminophospholipid, three unidentified glycolipids, three unidentified phospholipids, one unidentified phosphoglycolipid and five unidentified lipids. The DNA G+C content of DY32-46T was 70.6 mol%. The results of phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences and genomic data indicated that DY32-46T should be assigned to the genus Euzebya. ANI and in silico DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain DY32-46T and type strains of Euzebya species were 73.1-87.2â% and 20.2-32.4â%, respectively. Different phenotypic properties, together with genetic distinctiveness, demonstrated that strain DY32-46T was clearly distinct from recognized species of the genus Euzebya. Therefore, DY32-46T represents a novel species within the genus Euzebya, for which the name Euzebya pacifica sp. nov is proposed. The type strain is DY32-46T (=MCCC 1K03476T=KCTC 49091T).

Strains M65T, M69 and JN25 were isolated from seawater of the West Pacific Ocean. Cells of the three strains were Gram-stain-negative, aerobic and rod-shaped. Cells were motile by means of flagella. On the basis of the results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strains M65T, M69 and JN25 showed the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Henriciella algicola MCS27T (98.8â%), followed by Henriciella marina DSM 19595T (98.4â%), Henriciella barbarensis MCS23T (98.4â%), Henriciella pelagia LA220T (98.3â%), Henriciella aquimarina P38T (98.1â%) and Henriciella litoralis SD10T (97.8â%). The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities among the isolates were 100â%. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that the isolates fell within a cluster comprising the Henriciella species and represented an independent lineage. The average nucleotide identity and in silico DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain M65T and the type strains of Henriciella species were 73.9-85.8â% and 19.9-22.4â%, respectively. The sole respiratory quinone detected in the three isolates was ubiquinone 10. The principal fatty acids were summed feature 8 (C18â:â1 ω7c and/or C18â:â1 ω6c) and C16â:â0. The major polar lipids were glucuronopyranosyldiglyceride, monoglycosyldiglyceride and one unidentified glycolipid. The DNA G+C content was 61.3-61.4 mol%. Phylogenetic distinctiveness, chemotaxonomic differences, together with phenotypic properties, revealed that the isolates could be differentiated from the Henriciella species with validly published names. Therefore, it is proposed that strains M65T, M69 and JN25 represent a novel species of the genus Henriciella, for which the name Henriciella mobilis sp. nov. (type strain, M65T=CGMCC 1.15927T=KCTC 52576T) is proposed.

A novel Gram-negative, nonspore forming, nonmotile, and short-rod-shaped aerobic bacterium, designated DY48A3-103T, was isolated from a seawater sample collected from the West Pacific Ocean. Strain DY48A3-103T showed oxidase-positive and catalase-positive activities. Growth was observed at 10-37 °C (optimum 30 °C), at pH 6.5-9.5 (optimum 8.0) and in 1-11% NaCl (optimum 3%, w/v). 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis exhibited 96.3%, 96.1%, 96.0%, and 94.9% sequence similarity to the type strains Rhodophyticola porphyridii MA-7-27T, Nioella sediminis JS7-11T, N. nitratireducens SSW136T, and Jannaschia helgolandensis DSM 14858T, respectively. Strain DY48A3-103T and the type strains of phylogenetically related species have 61.7-75.4% AAI values, which fell into to the genus boundary range (60-80% AAI). Phylogenetic trees based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences and the genome sequences of strain DY48A3-103T revealed that it was affiliated to the members of the family Rhodobacteraceae. The G+C content was 65.4%. The sole isoprenoid quinone was Q-10. The predominant polar lipids were phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylglycerol. Major fatty acids were summed feature 8 (comprising C18:1ω7c and/or C18:1ω6c), C19:0 cyclo ω8c, and C16:0. On the basis of the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, and genomic properties, strain DY48A3-103t is proposed to represent a novel genus and a novel species, Alterinioella nitratireducens gen. nov., sp. nov., in the family Rhodobacteraceae. The type strain is DY48A3-103T (= KCTC 72738T = MCCC 1K04322T).

Seaweed polysaccharides represent a kind of novel gut microbiota regulator. The advantages and disadvantages of using cecal and fecal microbiota to represent gut microbiota have been discussed, but the regulatory effects of seaweed polysaccharides on cecal and fecal microbiota, which would benefit the study of seaweed polysaccharide-based gut microbiota regulator, have not been compared. Here, the effects of two Sargassum fusiforme polysaccharides prepared by water extraction (SfW) and acid extraction (SfA) on the cecal and fecal microbiota of high-fat diet (HFD) fed mice were investigated by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The results indicated that 16 weeks of HFD dramatically impaired the homeostasis of both the cecal and fecal microbiota, including the dominant phyla Bacteroidetes and Actinobacteria, and genera Coriobacteriaceae, S24-7, and Ruminococcus, but did not affect the relative abundance of Firmicutes, Clostridiales, Oscillospira, and Ruminococcaceae in cecal microbiota and the Simpson's index of fecal microbiota. Co-treatments with SfW and SfA exacerbated body weight gain and partially reversed HFD-induced alterations of Clostridiales and Ruminococcaceae. Moreover, the administration of SfW and SfA also altered the abundance of genes encoding monosaccharide-transporting ATPase, α-galactosidase, ß-fructofuranosidase, and ß-glucosidase with the latter showing more significant potency. Our findings revealed the difference of cecal and fecal microbiota in HFD-fed mice and demonstrated that SfW and SfA could more significantly regulate the cecal microbiota and lay important foundations for the study of seaweed polysaccharide-based gut microbiota regulators.

The family Erythrobacteraceae, belonging to the order Sphingomonadales, class Alphaproteobacteria, is globally distributed in various environments. Currently, this family consist of seven genera: Altererythrobacter, Croceibacterium, Croceicoccus, Erythrobacter, Erythromicrobium, Porphyrobacter and Qipengyuania. As more species are identified, the taxonomic status of the family Erythrobacteraceae should be revised at the genomic level because of its polyphyletic nature evident from 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. Phylogenomic reconstruction based on 288 single-copy orthologous clusters led to the identification of three separate clades. Pairwise comparisons of average nucleotide identity, average amino acid identity (AAI), percentage of conserved protein and evolutionary distance indicated that AAI and evolutionary distance had the highest correlation. Thresholds for genera boundaries were proposed as 70â% and 0.4 for AAI and evolutionary distance, respectively. Based on the phylo-genomic and genomic similarity analysis, the three clades were classified into 16 genera, including 11 novel ones, for which the names Alteraurantiacibacter, Altericroceibacterium, Alteriqipengyuania, Alteripontixanthobacter, Aurantiacibacter, Paraurantiacibacter, Parerythrobacter, Parapontixanthobacter, Pelagerythrobacter, Tsuneonella and Pontixanthobacter are proposed. We reclassified all species of Erythromicrobium and Porphyrobacter as species of Erythrobacter. This study is the first genomic-based study of the family Erythrobacteraceae, and will contribute to further insights into the evolution of this family.

Three Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped strains, designated 72T, NH166T and 40DY170T, were isolated from seawater samples of the West Pacific Ocean, South China Sea and West Pacific Ocean, respectively. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity results revealed that strains 72Tand NH166T were most closely related to Muricauda antarctica Ar-22T, Muricauda taeanensis JCM 17757T, Muricauda beolgyonensis KCTC 23501T, Muricauda lutimaris KCTC 22173T and Muricauda hadalis MT-229T with 97.2-98.0% sequence similarity. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis also indicated that strain 40DY170T was most closely related to Muricauda ruestringensis DSM 13258T, Muricauda aquimarina JCM 11811T, Muricauda lutimaris KCTC 22173T and Muricauda oceani 501str8T with 97.6-98.1% sequence similarity. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values among strains 72T, NH166T and 40DY170T were 96.5-99.2%. Phylogenetic analyses indicated that three new isolates represented three novel species by forming two distinctive lineages within the genus Muricauda. The DNA G+C contents of strain 72T, NH166T and 40DY170T were 43.4, 43.4 and 42.4 mol%, respectively. The average nucleotide identity and in silico DNA-DNA hybridization values between strains 72T, NH166T, 40DY170T and the reference strains were 76.5-93.5% and 19.2-53.5%, respectively. The sole respiratory quinone in all strains was menaquinone-6. Their major fatty acids were iso-C17:0 3-OH, iso-C15:0 and iso-C15 : 1 G. The major polar lipids of strains 72T and NH166T were phosphatidylethanolamine, one unidentified aminolipid and two unidentified lipids. The major polar lipids of strain 40DY170T were phosphatidylglycerol, one unidentified phospholipid, one unidentified aminolipid and two unidentified lipids. On the basis of their distinct taxonomic characteristics, the three isolates represent three novel species of the genus Muricauda, for which the names Muricauda maritima sp. nov. (type strain 72T=KCTC 62229T=MCCC 1K03350T), Muricauda aequoris sp. nov. (NH166T=KCTC 62228T=MCCC 1K03449T) and Muricauda oceanensis sp. nov. (40DY170T=KCTC 72200T=MCCC 1K03569T) are proposed.
