A Gram-staining-negative, rod-shaped and
non-motile bacterial strain, designated 12C25T, was isolated from
the crude-oil-degrading bacterial consortium enriched from mangrove sediment
collected in Fujian Province, China. Optimal growth was observed at 25–28 °C,
at pH 7.0 and in the presence of 2% (w/v) NaCl + 2% (w/v) KCl. Comparative 16S
rRNA gene sequence analysis demonstrated that strain 12C25Tshared
the highest sequence similarity with members of the genusMuricauda(97.7–93.9%), exhibiting 97.7% sequence similarity and
33.7±4% DNA–DNA relatedness toMuricauda aquimarinaSW-63T. The DNA G+C
content of strain 12C25Twas 39.9 mol%. The dominant fatty acids
were iso-C15:1G, iso-C17:03-OH, iso-C15: 0,
C18:0and iso-C15:03-OH, and menaquinone with six
isoprene units (MK-6) was the only respiratory quinone. On the basis of
phenotypic data and phylogenetic inference, the novel strain belongs to the
genusMuricauda, but can readily be distinguished from known species of this
genushttp://dx.doi.org/10.1601/nm.8170and thus represents a novel species of the genusMuricauda. The nameMuricaudazhangzhouensissp. nov. is proposed and the type strain is
12C25T(=CGMCC 1.11028T=MCCC 1F01096T=DSM
25030T).
