Article Description

A Gram-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium, strain SS0011B1-20, was isolated from sediments of the South China Sea. Growth occurred at NaCI concentrations between 0 and 10% and at temperatures between 10 and 37 °C. Strain SS011B1-20 contained Q-10 as the major respiratory quinone and Cω7c (81.2%), C (7.0%) and C methyl (4.3%) as the predominant fatty acids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 64.7 mol%. A phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that strain SS011B1-20 belonged to a clade within the genus Oceanicola in the Alphaproteobacteria, the highest sequence similarities being found with respect to Oceanicola batsensis (96.3%) and with Oceanicola granulosus (94.9%). Strain SS011B1-20 could be clearly distinguished from other Oceanicola species on the basis of the genotypic, phenotypic and phylogenetic data. Thus, it is proposed that strain SS011B1-20 represents a novel species of the genus Oceanicola, with the name Oceanicola nanhaiensis sp. nov. The type strain is SS011B1-20 (=LMG 23508=CGMCC 1.6293). © 2007 IUMS.
