A Gram-stain-negative and strictly aerobic, moderately halophilic bacterium, designated strain S1-47, was isolated from estuary sediment in South Korea. Cells were non-motile rods showing oxidase- and catalase-positive activities. Growth was observed at 10-30 °C (optimum, 25 °C), at pH 5.

Article Synopsis
  • - A new aerobic bacterium named HC1, isolated from an air conditioner in South Korea, exhibits unique characteristics such as non-motile, orange cocci and prefers a temperature of 30°C and neutral pH for growth.
  • - The bacterium belongs to the genus Roseomonas and is closely related to several known species, with significant genetic similarities but low DNA-DNA relatedness, indicating it's a new species.
  • - HC1 contains specific fatty acids and major polar lipids, and its genomic analysis shows a G+C content of 70.1%, supporting its classification as Roseomonas aerofrigidensis sp. nov.

Article Synopsis
  • - A novel, Gram-stain-negative bacterium named A-1 was isolated from a tidal flat in South Korea, characterized as aerobic and moderately salt-tolerant with a temperature growth range of 20-40 °C and an optimal pH of 7.0.
  • - Strain A-1 exhibits unique biochemical properties, including motile rod shape, oxidase-negative and catalase-positive activities, with specific fatty acids and polar lipids defining its composition.
  • - Phylogenetic analysis indicates that A-1 is distinct from other genera in the Oceanospirillaceae family, leading to the proposal of a new genus and species named Pontibacterium granulatum, with A-1 designated as the

A Gram-stain-negative and strictly aerobic bacterial strain, designated 6-4T, was isolated from forest soil in Jeju island, South Korea. Cells showing oxidase-positive and catalase-negative reactions were thin and long non-motile rods. Growth of strain 6-4T was observed at 20-35 °C (optimum, 30 °C) and pH 6.

A Gram-staining-negative, strictly aerobic bacterial strain, designated MA7-20T, was isolated from a marine alga, Porphyridium marinum, in Korea. Cells showing oxidase-positive and catalase-positive activities were motile rods with bipolar flagella. Growth of strain MA7-20T was observed at 15-45 °C (optimum, 30-37 °C), at pH 6.
