sp. nov., a facultative anaerobic bacterium belonging to the family isolated from marine sediment in the East China Sea.

A facultative anaerobic, Gram-strain-negative, rod-shaped bacterium (strain NBU2970) was isolated by using modified ichip cultivation from a marine sediment sample collected from Meishan Island in the East China Sea. Strain NBU2970 grew optimally at 37 °C, with a NaCl concentration of 2.0 % (w/v) and at pH 7.

sp. nov., a novel bacterium isolated from marine sediment, and emended description of the genus .

A Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, motile and aerobic marine bacterium, designated strain NBU2595, was isolated from marine sediment sampled on Meishan Island, located in the East China Sea. Strain NBU2595 grew at 10-40 °C (optimum, 37 °C), at NaCl concentration of 0-10.0 % (w/v; optimum, 0.
