RESUMEN
A novel bacterium, strain SJAQ100T, was isolated from a freshwater aquarium and was characterized taxonomically and phylogenetically. Strain SJAQ100T was a Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped and non-motile bacterium. The strain grew optimally with 0â% NaCl and at 25-37 °C on Reasoner's 2A agar. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the strain SJAQ100T clustered with members of Burkholderiales incertae sedis in the order Burkholderiales, but sequence similarities to known species were less than 96.5â%. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain SJAQ100T was 71.2 mol%. Genomic comparisons of strain SJAQ100T with species in the order Burkholderiales were made using the Genome-to-Genome Distance Calculator, average nucleotide identity and average amino acid identity analyses (values indicated ≤22.1, ≤78.1, and ≤68.1â% respectively). Strain SJAQ100T contained C16â:â0 and C16â:â1 ω7c/C16â:â1 ω6c as major fatty acids and Q-8 as the major quinone. The major polyamines were putrescine and cadaverine. Strain SJAQ100T contained phosphatidylethanolamine and diphosphatidylglycerol as major polar lipids. Based on the genotypic, chemotaxonomic and phenotypic results, strain SJAQ100T represents a novel genus and species, Aquariibacter albus gen. nov., sp. nov., which belongs to order Burkholderiales and the class Betaproteobacteria. The type strain is SJAQ100T (=KCTC 72203T=CGMCC 1.18869T=MCC 4385T).

The two novel bacterial strains designated 1Y17T and 4Y10T from aquaculture water were characterized using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strains 1Y17T and 4Y10T belonged to the genus Inhella and were close to Inhella crocodyli CCP-18T, Inhella inkyongensis IMCC1713T and Inhella fonticola TNR-25T. Strains 1Y17T and 4Y10T shared 98.6% identity with each other and less than 99.0% identity with their relatives above. The phylogenomic analysis indicated that the two strains formed two independent branches distinct from their relatives. The digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) and average nucleotide identity (ANI) values between the two strains were 21.3 and 80.9% below the two thresholds of 70% dDDH and 95-96% ANI for species definition; those between the two novel strains and their relatives were far below thresholds for species definition, implying that they represent two novel genospecies. The predominant fatty acids of the two strains were summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω7c and/or C16:1 ω6c) and C16:0; the major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol; the major quinone and polyamine were Q-8 and putrescine. Their genomic DNA G + C contents were 69.3 and 65.0%. The two novel strains can produce poly-ß-hydroxybutyrate, matching with the presence of the three synthetic related genes of the phaC-phaA-phaB in their genomes. Based on the genotypic and phenotypic characteristics such as aesculin and gelatin hydrolysis, strains 1Y17T and 4Y10T are concluded to represent two novel species of the genus Inhella, for which the names Inhella proteolytica sp. nov. (type strain 1Y17T = GDMCC 1.1830T = KACC 21948T) and Inhella gelatinilytica sp. (type strain 4Y10T = GDMCC 1.1829T = KCTC 82338T) are proposed.

A yellow-colored bacterial strain, designated S2T was isolated from soil in South Korea. Cells of strain S2T were strictly aerobic, Gram-stain-negative, motile with single polar flagellum, rod-shaped, oxidase and catalase-negative. Growth occurs at 10-37 °C (optimum, 28 °C), pH 5.0-9.0 (optimum, pH 6.5-7.0) and 0-3% NaCl (w/v). Strain S2T consisted of summed feature 3 (iso-C15:0 2-OH and/or C16:1 ω7c), C16:0 and summed feature 8 (C18:1 ω7c and/or C18:1 ω6c) as major fatty acids. The sole respiratory quinone was Q-8. The polar lipid profile consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine and an unidentified lipid. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain S2T is phylogenetically closest to Aquabacterium pictum W35T (98.4% sequence similarity). The genome of strain S2T was 8,039,486 bp with 56 scaffolds. The genome consisted of 10 putative biosynthetic gene clusters that are responsible for various secondary metabolites. Genomic DNA G + C content of strain S2T was 69.4%. The average nucleotide identity and in silico DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain S2T and phylogenetically related taxa were ≤ 77.9 and ≤ 21.4%, and respectively. The results of genotypic and phenotypic data showed that strain S2T could be distinguished from its phylogenetically related species and represents a novel species in the genus Aquabacterium, for which the name Aquabacterium terrae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is S2T (= KCTC 72741 T = NBRC 114609 T).

A novel bacterial strain, designated TBM-1T, isolated from a freshwater lake in Taiwan, was characterized using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences and coding sequences of 92 protein clusters indicated that strain TBM-1T formed a phylogenetic lineage in the genus Ideonella. Analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain TBM-1T was most closely related to Ideonella dechloratans CCUG 30898T with 98.4â% sequence similarity. The average nucleotide identity, average amino acid identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain TBM-1T and closely related strains of the genus Ideonella were 74.4-77.5â%, 69.7-75.4â% and 19.8-21.8â%, respectively, supporting that strain TBM-1T represents a novel species of the genus Ideonella. Cells were Gram-stain-negative, motile by means of a single polar flagellum, rod-shaped and formed blue colonies. Optimal growth occurred at 30 °C, pH 6 and 0â% NaCl. The predominant fatty acids of strain TBM-1T were summed feature 3 (C16â:â1 ω7c and/or C16â:â1 ω6c), C18â:â1 ω7c and C16â:â0. The polar lipid profile consisted of a mixture of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, two uncharacterized aminophospholipids and two uncharacterized phospholipids. The main polyamine was putrescine. The major isoprenoid quinone was Q-8. The estimated genome size was 5.26 Mb, with an average G+C content of 70.0 mol%. On the basis of phenotypic and genotypic properties and phylogenetic inference, strain TBM-1T should be classified in a novel species of the genus Ideonella, for which the name Ideonella livida sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is TBM-1T (=BCRC 81199T =LMG 31339T).

We performed high-quality genome sequencing of eight strains of the species of the genus Tepidimonas and examined the genomes of closely related strains from the databases to understand why Tepidimonas taiwanensis is the only strain of this genus that utilizes glucose and fructose for growth. We found that the assimilation of these hexoses by T. taiwanensis was due to the presence of two transporters that are absent in all other genomes of strains of members of the genus Tepidimonas examined. Some strains lack genes coding for glucokinase, but the Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas pathway appears to be otherwise complete. The pentose phosphate pathway has a complete set of genes, but genes of the Entner-Doudoroff pathway were not identified in the genomes of any of the strains examined. Genome analysis using average nucleotide identity (ANIb), digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH), average amino acid identity (AAI) and phylogenetic analysis of 400 conserved genes was performed to assess the taxonomic classification of the organisms. Two isolates of the genus Tepidimonas from the hot spring at São Pedro do Sul, Portugal, designated SPSP-6T and SPSPC-18 were also examined in this study. These organisms are mixotrophic, have an optimum growth temperature of about 50 ºC, utilize several organic acids and amino acids for growth but do not grow on sugars. Distinctive phenotypic, 16S rRNA gene sequence and genomic characteristics of strains SPSP-6T and SPSPC-18 lead us to propose a novel species based on strain SPSP-6T for which we recommend the name Tepidimonas charontis sp. nov. (=CECT 9683T=LMG 30884T).

A novel bacterial strain, designated KMB7T, isolated from a freshwater pond in Taiwan, was characterized using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Cells were Gram-stain-negative, motile by means of a single polar flagellum, rod-shaped and formed cream colonies. Optimal growth occurred at 25 °C, pH 7, and in the absence of NaCl. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences and an up-to-date bacterial core gene set (92 protein clusters) indicated that strain KMB7T is affiliated with species in the genus Aquabacterium. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity indicated that strain KMB7T is closely related to species within the genus Aquabacterium (95.2-97.6â% sequence similarity) and is most similar to A. fontiphilum CS-6T (97.6 %), followed by A. parvum B6T (97.5 %). The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization identity between strain KMB7T and the closely related strains were 74.6-78.0â% and 19.0-21.2â%, respectively. The major fatty acids of strain KMB7T were summed feature 3 (C16â:â1 ω7c and/or C16â:â1 ω6c), C18â:â1 ω7c and C16â:â0. The polar lipid profile consisted of a mixture of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylserine, diphosphatidylglycerol and four unidentified phospholipids. The sole isoprenoid quinone was ubiquinone-8 (Q-8). Genomic DNA G+C content of strain KMB7T was 65.4â%. On the basis of phenotypic and genotypic properties and phylogenetic inference, strain KMB7T should be classified in a novel species of the genus Aquabacterium, for which the name Aquabacterium lacunae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KMB7T (=BCRC 81156T=LMG 30924T=KCTC 62867T).

A Gram-stain-negative, facultative anaerobic, motile and straight rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain C1-9T, was isolated from rhizosphere soil of Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Ktze collected from a tea garden in Huize, south-western PR China. Cells were oxidase-positive and catalase-negative. Growth occurred at 20-40 °C and pH 6.0-10.0, with an optimal growth at 30 °C and pH 7.0. The respiratory quinone was detected as ubiquinone-8 (Q-8). The major fatty acids were identified as summed feature 3 (C16â:â1ω7c and/or C16â:â1ω6c), C16â:â0 and summed feature 8 (C18â:â1ω7c or C18â:â1ω6c). The cellular polar lipids contained phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, three unidentified phospholipids, two unidentified lipids, one unidentified aminophospholipid and one unidentified aminolipid. The polyamine types were detected as 1,8-diaminooctane and 2-hydroxyputrescine. The genomic DNA G+C content was 68.6 mol%. Based on the results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain C1-9T (MF687442) showed highest sequence similarity to Rivibacter subsaxonicus DSM 19570T (97.1â%). The phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain C1-9T clustered close to R. subsaxonicus DSM 19570T, Methylibium petroleiphilum CCTCC AB 2014193T and species belonging to the genera Rhizobacter and Piscinibacter. The phylogenomic tree indicated that strain C1-9T formed a clade with R. subsaxonicus. The average nucleotide identity value was 76.0â% between strain C1-9T and R. subsaxonicus DSM 19570T, which is lower than the prokaryotic species delineation threshold of 95.0-96.0â%. The polyphasic taxonomic characteristics indicated that strain C1-9T represents a novel species of a new genus within the order Burkholderiales, for which the name Pseudorivibacter rhizosphaerae gen. nov., sp. nov. (type strain C1-9T = KCTC 62325T=CGMCC 1.13864T) is proposed.

A strictly aerobic, bacteriochlorophyll a-containing betaproteobacterium, designated strain W35T, was isolated from a biofilm sampled at Tama River in Japan. The non-motile and rod-shaped cells formed pink-beige pigmented colonies on agar plates containing organic compounds, and showed an in vivo absorption maximum at 871 nm in the near-infrared region, typical for the presence of bacteriochlorophyll a. The new bacterial strain is Gram-negative, and oxidase- and catalase-positive. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that strain W35T was closely related to species in the genus Aquabacterium. The closest phylogenetic relatives of strain W35T were Aquabacterium commune B8T (97.9â% sequence similarity), Aquabacterium citratiphilum B4T (97.2â%) and Aquabacterium limnoticum ABP-4T (97.0â%). The major cellular fatty acids were C16 â:â 1ω7c (50.4â%), C16 â:â 0 (22.7â%), summed feature 8 (C18 â:â 1ω7c/C18 â:â 1ω6c; 9.7â%), C18 â:â 3ω6c (5.5â%), C12 â:â 0 (5.3â%) and C10 â:â 0 3OH (2.7â%). The respiratory quinone was ubiquinone-8. Predominant polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 70.4 mol% (genome data) and 71.4 mol% (HPLC). The genome size of strain W35T is 6.1 Mbp and average nucleotide identity analysis indicated genome similarities of strain W35T and related Aquabacterium type strains to be 78-79â%. The results of polyphasic comparisons showed that strain W35T was clearly distinguishable from other members of the genus Aquabacterium. Therefore, we propose a new species in the genus Aquabacterium, namely, Aquabacterium pictum sp. nov. The type strain is W35T (=DSM 106757T=NBRC 111963T). The description of the genus Aquabacterium is also emended.

The genus of Parasutterella has been defined as a core component of the human and mouse gut microbiota, and has been correlated with various health outcomes. However, like most core microbes in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), very little is known about the biology of Parasutterella and its role in intestinal ecology. In this study, Parasutterella was isolated from the mouse GIT and characterized in vitro and in vivo. Mouse, rat, and human Parasutterella isolates were all asaccharolytic and producers of succinate. The murine isolate stably colonized the mouse GIT without shifting bacterial composition. Notable changes in microbial-derived metabolites were aromatic amino acid, bilirubin, purine, and bile acid derivatives. The impacted bile acid profile was consistent with altered expression of ileal bile acid transporter genes and hepatic bile acid synthesis genes, supporting the potential role of Parasutterella in bile acid maintenance and cholesterol metabolism. The successful colonization of Parasutterella with a single environmental exposure to conventional adult mice demonstrates that it fills the ecological niche in the GIT and contributes to metabolic functionalities. This experiment provides the first indication of the role of Parasutterella in the GIT, beyond correlation, and provides insight into how it may contribute to host health.

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-spore-forming and rod-shaped bacterium, designated YIM 730274T, was isolated from a sediment sample collected from a hot spring located in Tibet, PR China, and was characterized by using a polyphasic taxonomy approach. Cells were motile by means of a polar flagellum. The strain was oxidase- and catalase-positive, and contained polyalkanoates and polyphosphate as storage polymers. Growth occurred at 25-50 °C, at pH 6.0-8.5 and with 0.5-1.0â% NaCl. The major fatty acids (>10â%) were summed feature 3 (C16â:â1ω6c and/or C16â:â1ω7c), summed feature 8 (C18â:â1ω7c and/or C18â:â1ω6c) and C16â:â0. The known polar lipids comprised of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylserine. The isoprenoid quinone was Q-8. The G+C content of genomic DNA was 70.7 mol%. The results of phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the strain forms a monophyletic branch at the periphery of the evolutionary radiation occupied by the genus Aquabacterium in the class Betaproteobacteria. The most closely related phylogenetic neighbours were Aquabacterium limnoticumABP-4T (97.8â% 16S rRNA gene sequence identity) and Aquabacterium communeB8T (97.2â% 16SrRNA gene sequence identity). DNA-DNA relatedness values between YIM 730274T and A. limnoticum KCTC 23306T (46.4±0.4â%) and A. commune DSM 11901T (42.2±1.2â%) were well below the 70â% limit for species identification. YIM 730274T was distinguishable from other members of the genus Aquabacterium by the differences in phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and genotypic characteristics. YIM 730274T merits recognition as a representative of a novel species of the genus Aquabacterium. It is proposed that the isolate should be classified in the genus Aquabacterium as representing a novel species, Aquabacteriumtepidiphilum sp. nov. The type strain is YIM 730274T (=KCTC 52716T=CCTCC AB 2016295T).

Two novel, obligately anaerobic, Gram-stain-negative, rod or coccoid-shaped bacteria, designated strains 4NBBH2T and 6FBBBH3T, were isolated from faecal samples of a healthy Japanese woman and man. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that these strains represent a distinct lineage within the family Sutterellaceae. Strain 4NBBH2T formed a monophyletic branch between the genera Parasutterella and Sutterella, with sequence similarity to Sutterella stercoricanis CCUG 47620T (92.6â%), followed by Sutterella wadsworthensis WAL 7877 (92.4â%), Sutterella parvirubra YIT 11816T (92.1â%) and Parasutterella secunda YIT 12071T (91.8â%). Strain 6FBBBH3T was affiliated to the genus Sutterella, with highest similarity to S. stercoricanis CCUG 47620T (97.1â%), followed by S. parvirubra YIT 11816T (96.6â%) and S. wadsworthensis WAL 7877 (95.2â%). Strains 4NBBH2T and 6FBBBH3T were asaccharolytic. Analysis of fatty acids revealed that strain 4NBBH2T could be differentiated from Sutterella species (including strain 6FBBBH3T) by the presence of a low concentration of C16â:â1ω7c. The major respiratory quinones of strain 4NBBH2T were menaquinone (MK)-6 and methylmenaquinone (MMK)-6, whereas those of strain 6FBBBH3T were MK-5 and MMK-5. The G+C content of the genomic DNA of strains 4NBBH2T and 6FBBBH3T were 56.9 and 62.8 mol%, respectively. On the basis of the collected data, strain 4NBBH2T represents a novel species in a novel genus of the family Sutterellaceae, for which the name Mesosutterella multiformis gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 4NBBH2T (=JCM 32464T=DSM 106860T). We also propose a novel Sutterella species, Sutterellamegalosphaeroides sp. nov., for strain 6FBBBH3T (=JCM 32470T=DSM 106861T).

OBJECTIVES: This study reports the draft genome sequence of Xenophilus sp. E41, a strain resistant to multiple antimicrobials isolated from an activated sludge reactor treating wastewater with a high cephalexin concentration. METHODS: Genomic DNA of Xenophilus sp. E41 was extracted and sequenced using an Illumina NovaSeq 6000 system. The generated sequence reads were assembled using MEGAHIT in combination with SOAPdenovo. Mauve and CompareM were used to align the Xenophilus sp. E41 genome to other draft genomes of the genus Xenophilus in order to determine their evolutionary relationships. The draft genome was annotated using the Rapid Annotation using Subsystem Technology (RAST) server and the nr database, whilst antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) were identified using the SARG 2.0 database, RAST server and nr database. RESULTS: Xenophilus sp. E41, with a genome length of 5919552bp, harbours seven types of ARGs involving resistance to ß-lactams, tetracycline, aminoglycosides, sulfonamides, chloramphenicol, teicoplanin and bleomycin. No virulence factors or plasmids were identified. CONCLUSION: The genome sequence reported here will provide useful information for a better understanding of antimicrobial resistance profiles in this strain and the genus Xenophilus.

A yellowish-pigmented bacterial strain, designated as MQ-18T, was isolated from a sample of activated sludge collected from a pharmaceutical factory in Zhejiang, China. The strain was characterized through a polyphasic taxonomy approach. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis demonstrated that strain MQ-18T showed high similarities to Piscinibacter defluvii SH-1T (99.7â%) and Piscinibacter aquaticus IMCC1728T (98.4â%), thereby suggesting that it belongs to the genus Piscinibacter. The DNA-DNA relatedness values of this strain to strains SH-1T and IMCC1728T were only 35.4 and 33.3â%, respectively. Cells of MQ-18T were Gram-negative, aerobic, motile, rod-shaped and non-spore forming. This strain exhibited growth at 25-37 °C (optimum: 30 °C) in the presence of 0-3.0â% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0â% NaCl) and at pH 5.0-8.0 (pH 7.0). The predominant fatty acids were C12â:â0 (5.5â%), C16â:â0 (33.7â%), summed feature 3 (C16â:â1ω7c and/or C16â:â1ω6c; 38.5â%), and summed feature 4 (anteiso-C17â:â1 B and/or iso C17â:â1 I; 11.6â%). The main quinone type was ubiquinone-8, and the major polyamines were cadaverine and putrescine. The major polar lipid profile consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. The DNA G+C content was 70.1 mol%. On the basis of its phylogenetic, phenotypic and physiological characteristics, strain MQ-18T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Piscinibacter, for which the name Piscinibacter caeni sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is MQ-18T (CCTCC AB 2017223T=JCM 32138T).

Freshwater bacterioplankton communities are influenced by the inputs of material and bacteria from the surrounding landscape, yet few studies have investigated how different terrestrial inputs affect bacterioplankton. We examined whether the addition of soils collected under various tree species combinations differentially influences lake bacterial communities. Lake water was incubated for 6 days following addition of five different soils. We assessed the taxonomic composition (16S rRNA gene sequencing) and metabolic activity (Biolog Ecoplates) of lake bacteria with and without soil addition, and compared these to initial soil communities. Soil bacterial assemblages showed a strong influence of tree composition, but such community differences were not reflected in the structure of lake communities that developed during the experiment. Bacterial taxa showing the largest abundance increases during incubation were initially present in both lake water and across most soils, and were related to Cytophagales, Burkholderiales and Rhizobiales. No clear metabolic profiles based on inoculum source were found, yet soil-amended communities used 60% more substrate than non-inoculated communities. Overall, we show that terrestrial inputs influence aquatic communities by stimulating the growth and activity of certain ubiquitous taxa distributed across the terrestrial-aquatic continuum, yet different forest soils did not cause predictable changes in lake bacterioplankton assemblages.

Although benzene can be biodegraded when dissolved oxygen is sufficient, delivering oxygen is energy intensive and can lead to air stripping the benzene. Anaerobes can biodegrade benzene by using electron acceptors other than O2 , and this may reduce costs and exposure risks; the drawback is a remarkably slower growth rate. We evaluated a two-step strategy that involved O2 -dependent benzene activation and cleavage followed by intermediate oxidation coupled to NO3- respiration. We employed a membrane biofilm reactor (MBfR) featuring nonporous hollow fibers as the means to deliver O2 directly to a biofilm at an accurately controlled rate. Benzene was mineralized aerobically when the O2 -supply rate was more than sufficient for mineralization. As the O2 -supply capacity was systematically lowered, O2 respiration was gradually replaced by NO3- respiration. When the maximum O2 -supply capacity was only 20% of the demand for benzene mineralization, O2 was used almost exclusively for benzene activation and cleavage, while respiration was almost only by denitrification. Analyses of microbial community structure and predicted metagenomic function reveal that Burkholderiales was dominant and probably utilized monooxygenase activation, with subsequent mineralization coupled to denitrification; strict anaerobes capable of carboxylative activation were not detected. These results open the door for a promising treatment strategy that simultaneously ameliorates technical and economic challenges of aeration and slow kinetics of anaerobic activation of aromatics.
