Changes in worldwide crop trends and climate change has increased the introduction of alien crops. However, there are always potential side effect issues related to introduced crops, such as the introduced crop becoming a nuisance at the new country or bringing insect pests or microorganisms with the introduced crops. In this study, we developed a crop introduction risk assessment system using text mining method to prevent this problem.

Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that strain GA093 is a member of the genus , and formed an independent phylogenetic line while clustering with the type strains of , and . Strain GA093 was facultatively anaerobic, and could grow at 4-33 °C (optimum, 30 °C), at pH 6-11 (optimum, pH 7) and in the presence of 0-2 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0 %).
