Trinickia dinghuensis sp. nov. and Trinickia fusca sp. nov., isolated from forest soil.

Two Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-spore forming and rod-shaped bacterial strains, designated DHOM06 and 7MK8-2, were isolated from forest soil sampled at Dinghushan Biosphere Reserve, Guangdong Province, PR China. Strain DHOM06 grew at 12-37 °C (optimum, 28-33 °C), pH 4.5-7.

Paraburkholderia caseinilytica sp. nov., isolated from the pine and broad-leaf mixed forest soil.

A novel Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-spore-forming, motile and rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated HM451, was isolated from forest soil sampled at the Dinghushan Biosphere Reserve, Guangdong Province, PR China (112° 31' E 23° 10' N). It grew optimally at 28 °C, pH 5.0-6.
