Sphingomicrobium clamense sp. nov., Isolated from Sediment of Clam Island Beach in China

Abstract A Gram-stain-negative, non-flagellated, aerobic, ovoid or rod-shaped bacterium with motility, designated $ B8^{T} $, was isolated from the sediment of Clam Island beach, Liaoning province, China. The optimum growth of strain $ B8^{T} $ occurred at 35 oC, pH 7.0, and in the presence of 4.0–5.0% (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain $ B8^{T} $ formed a distinct lineage within the genus Sphingomicrobium and was closely related to Sphingomicrobium nitratireducens O-$ 35^{T} $ (98.3% sequence similarity), Sphingomicrobium aestuariivivum KCTC $ 42286^{T} $ (96.9%), and Sphingomicrobium astaxanthinifaciens JCM $ 18551^{T} $ (96.5%). The digital DNA–DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values between strain $ B8^{T} $ and closely related strains were lower than 21.0% and 78.0%, much lower than the cutoff values of 70.0% and 95.0%, respectively, for bacterial species delineation. The dominant respiratory quinone of strain $ B8^{T} $ was ubiquinone-10. The major fatty acids were Sum In Feature 8 ($ C_{18:1} $ω7c and/or $ C_{18:1} $ω6c), Sum In Feature 3 ($ C_{16 : 1} $ω7c and/or $ C_{16 : 1} $ω6c), $ C_{17:1} $ω6c, $ C_{18:1} $ 2-OH, and $ C_{16:0} $. The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, sphingoglycolipid, glycolipids, and four unknown polar lipids. The DNA G + C content of strain $ B8^{T} $ was 63.9%. Based on the phenotypic, phylogenetic, and chemotaxonomic analyses, strain $ B8^{T} $ is considered a new species of Sphingomicrobium, for which the name Sphingomicrobium clamense sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is $ B8^{T} $ (= CGMCC 1.$ 19486^{T} $ = KCTC $ 92052^{T} $)..
