Abstract

A marine strain, designated KK4, was isolated from the surface of a starfish, , which was collected from seawater off the coast of Hokkaido, Japan. Strain KK4 is a Gram-stain-negative, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped, aerobic bacterium that forms yellow-pigmented colonies. A phylogenetic relationship analysis, based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, revealed that strain KK4 was closely related to IMCC12008, IMCC3101 and KMM 3912, with similarities of 96.9, 95.8 and 95.6 %, respectively, but low sequence similarities (<94 %) among other genera in the family . Genomic similarities between strain KK4 and the three type strains based on average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values were lower than the species delineation thresholds. Moreover, phylogenetic tree based on genome sequences showed that strain KK4 was clustered with IMCC12008 and formed a branch independent from the cluster including type species of the genera , , , and . Amino acid identity values between strain KK4/ IMCC12008 and the neighbour type species/strains were 61.9–68.2% and 61.5–67.4 %, which were lower than the genus delineation threshold, implying the novel genus status of strain KK4. Strain KK4 growth occurred at pH 6.0–9.0, 4–30 °C and in NaCl concentrations of 0.5–5.0 %, and optimally at pH 7.0, 25 °C and 3.0 %, respectively. Unlike strains, strain KK4 could assimilate glucose, mannose, galactose and acetate. The major quinone and fatty acids were menaquinone-6 and iso-C (27.5 %), iso-C G (22.5 %) and iso-C 3-OH (12.8 %), respectively. Based on genetic, phylogenetic and phenotypic properties, strain KK4 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KK4 (=JCM 33344=KCTC 72225). In addition, based on the current data, should be reclassified as comb. nov.
