A Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, motile, coccus-shaped bacterium, designated strain SCSIO 13315, was isolated from mucus of the coral sp. collected from Luhuitou fringing reef (Sanya, Hainan, PR China). Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that strain SCSIO 13315 exhibits 95.5 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to SKC1-2, 95.8 % to T2A-S27 and 96.4 % to KST3-3. Results of phylogenetic analysis suggested that strain SCSIO 13315 was a member of the genus . The DNA G+C content of strain SCSIO 13315 was 73.5 %. Chemotaxonomic assessment of strain SCSIO 13315 showed that the menaquinones were MK-8(H) and MK-9(H). The main cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C, C and summed feature 3 (C 7/C 6). The polar lipids present were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, two unknown phospholipids, four unidentified aminolipids and one unidentified lipid. Based on the phylogenetic and phenotypic analysis, it was evident that strain SCSIO 13315 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SCSIO 13315 (=NBRC 109944=DSM 27812).

Marine fungi are considered important resources for new lead compounds in One Strain Many Compounds (OSMAC) strategy. In particular, deep-sea derived fungi have been deemed potent for novel bioactive structures due to their extreme living environment and evolution of special biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) for secondary metabolites. Chemical investigations of the deep-sea derived Penicillium sp.

The photosynthetic microorganisms within the coral holobiont produce energy and organic compounds through photosynthesis, which are vital for the biocalcification and heat tolerance of coral hosts. However, aerobic anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria (AAPB), which are one of the most important photosynthetic microorganisms, have not been thoroughly investigated in this environment. In this study, a novel AAPB, SCSIO 66989, was isolated from the reef-building coral sp.
