A aerobic, gram-negative, rod-shaped and polar-flagellum bacterial strain, designated as FYR11-62, was isolated from the estuary of the Fenhe River into the Yellow River in Shanxi Province, China. The isolate was able to grow at 4-37 °C (optimum, 25 °C), pH 5.5-9.

Article Synopsis
  • A new species designated ASW11-100 was identified from tidal flat sediment in the Yellow Sea, with high genetic similarity to related strains based on 16S rRNA gene analysis.
  • The genome of this strain contains 2,950 protein-coding genes and 105 carbohydrate-active enzymes, including 38 glycoside hydrolases involved in breaking down various polysaccharides.
  • ASW11-100 is characterized as Gram-negative, aerobic, and non-flagellated, and exhibits unique fatty acid and lipid profiles, supporting its classification as a novel species with the proposed name sp. nov.

A Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, motile, and rod-shaped bacterium, designated ASW11-47, was isolated from a tidal flat sediment taken from the coast of Qingdao, PR China. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that strain ASW11-47 belongs to the genus Salinimicrobium and is most closely related to Salinimicrobium terrae YIM-C338 (98.68% similarity).
