ABSTRACT
A Gram-stain-negative and yellow-pigmented bacterial strain, designated TX0406T, was isolated from an automobile evaporator core collected in Korea. The cells were non-motile, aerobic and rod-shaped. The strain grew at 15-37 °C (optimum, 25 °C), at pH 6.0-7.0 (optimum, 6.5) and in the presence of 0-1.5â% (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetically, the strain was related to members of the genus Spirosoma(93.7-90.7â% 16S rRNA sequence similarities) and showed the highest sequence similarity of 93.7â% to Spirosomapulveris JSH5-14T. The major fatty acids of the strain were summed feature 3 (C16ââ1ω7c and/or C16ââ1ω6c), C16ââ1ω5c and C16ââ0. The predominant menaquinone was MK-7. The polar lipid profile revealed the presence of phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminolipid, unidentified aminophospholipids and unidentified lipids. The DNA G+C content of the strain was 58.7 mol%. Based on phenotypic, genotypic and chemotaxonomic data, strain TX0406T represents a novel species in the genus Spirosoma, for which the name Spirosoma carri sp. nov. (=KACC 19013T=NBRC 112494T) is proposed.
