Abstract:
The Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, yellow-pigmented and facultative anaerobic bacterial strain, designated H164T, was isolated from seawater collected from the Caroline Seamounts in the Pacific Ocean. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain H164T was related to the genus Algibacter and had highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Algibacter wandonensis WS-MY22T (97.4 %). The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 1 G, iso-C15 : 0 3-OH and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH. The predominant menaquinone was MK-6. The polar lipid profile contained phosphatidylethanolamine, one unidentified aminolipid and two unidentified lipids. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain H164T was 33.2 mol%. The values of in silico DNA-DNA hybridization (isDDH) and average nucleotide identity (ANI) between strain H164T and A. wandonensis KCTC 32381T were 26.10 and 81.88 %. The isDDH and ANI values between strain H164T and Algibacter lectus DSM 15365T were 25.40 and 81.79 %. Combined data from phenotypic, phylogenetic, isDDH and ANI analyses demonstrated that strain H164T represents a novel species of the genus Algibacter, for which we propose the name Algibacter pacificus sp. nov. (type strain H164T=KCTC 72432T=CGMCC 1.17117T).
