Abstract:
non- motile, rod- shaped, catalase- positive, oxidase- positive and grew optimally at pH 7 and 25 ?C. Comparative 16S rRNA gene analysis indicated that strain I-24T has closest similarities to Spirosoma agri KCTC 52727T (95.9 %) and Spirosoma terrae KCTC 52035T (95.5 %). Strain I-24T contained summed feature 3 (C16:1 w7c/C16:1 w6c) and C16:1 w5c as the major fatty acids, the predominant respiratory quinone was menaquinone MK-7, and the major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine as well as an unidentified phosphoaminolipid. The draft genome of strain I-24T consists of 10 326 072 base pairs with 9153 predicted coding sequences and a G+C content of 47.7 mol%. Clear distinctions between strain I-24T and S. agri KCTC 52727T or S. terrae KCTC 52035T were shown in the pairwise average nucleotide identity results with values of 76.71 and 74.01 %, respectively. Moreover, the digital DNA?DNA relatedness values to these strains were 20.8 and 19.0 %. Based on its phenotypic, genotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, strain I-24T represents a novel species of the genus Spirosoma, for which the name Spirosoma
