A Gram-staining-negative, strictly aerobic, rod-shaped bacterium, designated CBA3202(T), was isolated from seashore sand on Jeju Island, Republic of Korea. Based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain CBA3202(T) was allocated to the genus Gillisia (family Flavobacteriaceae) and was most closely related to the type strain of Gillisia mitskevichiae (99.0 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity). Optimal growth occurred at 25 °C and with 3 % NaCl. The only isoprenoid quinone was menaquinone-6 (MK-6), the predominant fatty acids were C16 : 0, iso-C15 : 1 G, iso-C16 : 0 and summed feature 3 (comprising C16 : 1ω6c and/or C16 : 1ω7c), and the DNA G+C content was 34.9 mol%. The polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, two unidentified aminolipids and several unidentified polar lipids. Based on phylogenetic inference and phenotypic data, we conclude that strain CBA3202(T) represents a novel species of the genus Gillisia, for which the name Gillisia marina sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CBA3202(T) ( = KACC 16693(T) = KCTC 32030(T) = JCM 18402(T)). An emended description of the genus Gillisia is also provided.

A novel Gram-reaction-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped, non-motile, non-spore forming, orange-pigmented bacterium identified as M10.2A, was isolated from marine residues submerged on the Malva-rosa beach (València, Spain), on the western coast of the Mediterranean Sea. This strain was catalase-positive and oxidase-negative and grew under mesophilic, neutrophilic and halophilic conditions.

A Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, yellow-colored, rod-shaped, chemoheterotrophic bacterium, designated SNA426, was isolated from marine soil in the Republic of Korea. Preliminary analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that the novel marine isolate was affiliated with the family Flavobacteriaceae of phylum Bacteroidetes and that it shared the highest (96.2%) sequence similarity with Gillisia mitskevichiae KMM 6034.

Hormetic responses in soil ecosystem are increasingly reported recently. Soil enzymes are involved in almost all biochemical reactions, but insufficient investigations were conducted to define its hormetic responses. The objective of this study is to investigate the hormetic responses across soil particle-size fractions with cadmium (Cd) as a stressor and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) as a potential endpoint.

Microbial community composition of transiently wetted Antarctic Dry Valley soils.

During the summer months, wet (hyporheic) soils associated with ephemeral streams and lake edges in the Antarctic Dry Valleys (DVs) become hotspots of biological activity and are hypothesized to be an important source of carbon and nitrogen for arid DV soils. Recent research in the DV has focused on the geochemistry and microbial ecology of lakes and arid soils, with substantially less information being available on hyporheic soils. Here, we determined the unique properties of hyporheic microbial communities, resolved their relationship to environmental parameters and compared them to archetypal arid DV soils.
