AI Article Synopsis

  • A new Gram-positive, aerobic, rod-shaped bacterium called strain KP02(T) was isolated from ginseng field soil in Daejeon, South Korea.
  • The strain shows genetic similarities to known species like 'Pseudoclavibacter alba' and has unique chemotaxonomic traits, including specific menaquinones and fatty acids.
  • Based on its distinct characteristics, strain KP02(T) is proposed to be classified as a novel species named Pseudoclavibacter soli sp. nov.

Article Abstract

A Gram-positive, aerobic, rod-shaped and non-motile bacterium, designated strain KP02(T), was isolated from soil from a ginseng field in Daejeon, South Korea. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, this strain was shown to be related to 'Pseudoclavibacter alba' NBRC 15616 (95.5 %), 'Pseudoclavibacter faecalis' NBRC 15706 (93.9 %), Pseudoclavibacter helvolus DSM 20419(T) (93.7 %) and 'Pseudoclavibacter bifida' IAM 14848 (93.0 %). Chemotaxonomic data revealed that strain KP02(T) possessed MK-9 and MK-8 as major menaquinones and anteiso-C(15 : 0), anteiso-C(17 : 0), iso-C(16 : 0) and C(16 : 0 )as predominant fatty acids. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain KP02(T) was 64.4 mol%. The physiological and biochemical tests suggested that strain KP02(T) represents a novel species. Based on these data, strain KP02(T) (=KCTC 19255(T)=JCM 15058(T)) should be classified as the type strain of a novel Pseudoclavibacter species, for which the name Pseudoclavibacter soli sp. nov. is proposed.

A Gram-positive, strictly aerobic, rod-shaped, non-motile bacterial strain, designated MJ28T, was isolated from a sludge sample from the Daejeon sewage disposal plant in South Korea. A polyphasic approach was applied to study the taxonomic position of strain MJ28T. Strain MJ28T showed highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Pseudoclavibacter soli KP02T (95.
