RESUMO
An aerobic bacterial strain, designated XJ-2T, was isolated from a soil sample collected from Gurbantunggut Sandy Desert in PR China. Cells of strain XJ-2T were Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped and non-spore-forming. The new isolate grew well at 10-37 °C (optimum, 28-30 °C), pH 6.0-11.0 (pH 7.0) and 0-1â% (w/v) NaCl (0â%). The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain XJ-2T showed the highest similarity to that of Chitinophaga rhizosphaerae T16R-86T (99.0â%), followed by Chitinophaga barathri YLT18T (97.0â%), Chitinophagahumicola Ktm-2T (96.7â%) and Chitinophaga niabensis JS13-10T (96.4â%). The major menaquinone of strain XJ-2T was menaquinone 7 and the predominant fatty acids (>5â%) were iso-C15â:â0, C16â:â1ω5c and iso-C17â:â0 3-OH. The polar lipids consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified glycolipid, three unidentified aminolipids and five unidentified lipids. The genome size was 6.33 Mb, comprising 5268 predicted genes with a G+C content of 41.5âmol%. The DNA G+C content was 50.5 mol% based on total genome calculations. The average nucleotide identity and the digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain XJ-2T and strain T16R-86T were 79.6 and 22.3â%, respectively. DNA-DNA relatedness between strain XJ-2T and strain YLT18T was 17.0â%. Based on the physiological, biochemical and chemotaxonomic characteristics, strain XJ-2T represents a novel species of the genus Chitinophaga, for which the name Chitinophagadeserti sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is XJ-2T (KCTC 62443T=CCTCC AB 2018019T).

A Gram-stain-negative bacterial strain, designated JW-3T, was isolated from a soil sample collected from farmland in Yantai, Shandong Province, PR China. Cells of strain JW-3T are motile rods and strictly aerobic, showing catalase- and oxidase-positive reactions. Strain JW-3T could grow at 16-37 °C (optimum, 30 °C), at pH 6.0-9.0 (pH 7.0) and in the presence of 0-1â% (w/v) NaCl (0.5â%, in Luria-Bertani broth). The major fatty acids were summed feature 3 (C16â:â1 ω7c and/or C16â:â1 ω6c; 35.5â%), iso-C16â:â0 (16.7â%) and C12â:â0 (10.8â%). The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone-8 (Q8). The polar lipids of strain JW-3T consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, four unidentified phospholipids, two unidentified lipids, two unidentified glycolipids and a partial unidentified aminophospholipid. Strain JW-3T was most closely related to Steroidobacter agariperforans KA5-BT with 97.67â% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity. Results of phylogenetic analyses, based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing, showed that strain JW-3T forms a distinct phylogenic lineage within the genus Steroidobacter of the family Sinobacteraceae. The DNA G+C content of strain JW-3T was 62.57 mol%, based on its draft genome sequence. Average nucleotide identity values and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values for draft genomes, between strain JW-3T and strain KA5-BT, were 84.54 and 30.80â%, respectively. Based on its phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and molecular features, and DNA-DNA hybridization results, strain JW-3T represents a novel species of the genus Steroidobacter, for which the name Steroidobactersoli sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is JW-3T (=CCTCC AB 2018184T=KCTC 62820T).
