RESUMEN
A Gram-stain-negative, facultative anaerobe, rod-shaped strain JX-1T was isolated from UASB sludge treating landfill leachate in Wuhan, China. The isolate is capable of growing under conditions of pH 6.0-11.0 (optimum, pH 7.0-8.0), temperature 4-42 â (optimum, 20-30 â), 0-8.0% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 5.0%), and ammonia nitrogen concentration of 200-5000 mg/L (optimum, 500 mg/L) on LB plates. The microorganism can utilize malic acid, D-galactose, L-rhamnose, inosine, and L-glutamic acid as carbon sources, but does not reduce nitrates and nitrites. The major fatty acids are C18:1ω7c/C18:1ω6c, iso-C15:0, and anteiso-C15:0. The respiratory quinones are Q9 (91.92%) and Q8 (8.08%). Polar lipids include aminolipid, aminophospholipid, diphosphatidylglycerol, glycolipid, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, and phospholipid. Compared with other strains, strain JX-1T and Denitrificimonas caeni HY-14T have the highest values in terms of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (96.79%), average nucleotide identity (ANI; 76.06%), and average amino acid identity (AAI; 78.89%). Its digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) result is 20.3%. The genome of strain JX-1T, with a size of 2.78 Mb and 46.12 mol% G + C content, lacks genes for denitrification and dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA), but contains genes for ectoine synthesis as a secondary metabolite. The results of this polyphasic study allow genotypic and phenotypic differentiation of the analysed strain from the closest related species and confirm that the strain represents a novel species within the genus Denitrificimonas, for which the name Denitrificimonas halotolerans sp. nov. is proposed with JX-1T (= MCCC 1K08958T = KCTC 8395T) as the type strain.

Bacteria of the genus Oceanisphaera in the class Gammaproteobacteria are widely distributed in marine environments. Oceanisphaera sp. IT1-181 was isolated from intertidal sediment in the coastal region of the Chinese Great Wall Station on the Fildes Peninsula, King George Island, Antarctica. Here, we sequenced the complete genome of strain IT1-181, which contained a single chromosome of 3,572,184 bp (G + C content of 49.89 mol%) with five plasmids. A total of 3229 protein-coding genes, 88 tRNA genes, and 25 rRNA genes were obtained. Genome sequence analysis revealed that strain IT1-181 was not only a potentially novel species of the genus Oceanisphaera, but also harbored genes involved in biosynthesizing ectoine as well as poly-ß-hydroxybutyric acid (PHB). In addition, genes of a complete type I-E CRISPR-Cas system were found in the bacterium. The results indicate the potential of strain Oceanisphaera sp. IT1-181 in biotechnology and are helpful for us understanding its ecological roles in the changing Antarctic intertidal zone environment.
