Pseudomonas lopnurensis sp. nov., an endophytic bacterium isolated from Populus euphratica at the ancient Ugan river.

A Gram-stain negative, aerobic, rod-shaped, motile by a single polar flagellum, non-spore-forming bacterium, designated strain AL-54, was isolated from the storage liquid in the stems of Populus euphratica tree at the ancient Ugan River in Xinjiang, PR China. Isolated AL-54 grew optimally at pH 7.0 and temperature 35 °C in the presence of 3% (w/v) NaCl.

Pseudomonas tarimensis sp. nov., an endophytic bacteria isolated from Populus euphratica.

An endophytic bacterium, MA-69, was isolated from the storage liquid in the stems of Populuseuphratica trees at the ancient Ugan River in Xinjiang, PR China. Strain MA-69 was found to be short rod-shaped, Gram-stain-negative, non-spore-forming, aerobic and motile by means of a monopolar flagellum. According to phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, strain MA-69 was assigned to the genus Pseudomonas with highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 97.

sp. nov., an endophytic bacterium isolated from .

A Gram-stain negative, aerobic, non-motile, short-rod-shaped bacterium, designated KBL-4-9, was isolated from the storage liquid in the stems of trees in Xinjiang, PR China. Strain KBL-4-9 grew at 4-45 °C (optimum 37 °C), 1-3 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum 1 %, w/v) and pH 5.5-9.
