| A moderately halophilic alkaliphilic bacterium, designated strain GIMN1.014T, was isolated from a saline and alkali soil samples in Baicheng City, western of Jilin Province, China. Cells of GIMN1.014T were mobtile, aerobic, rod-shaped, spore forming and Gram-positive. Growth occurred in 15-45 C (optimum, 30 C) and at pH 7.0-11.5 (optimum, pH 9.0) and in the presence of 0-10% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 1-3% (w/v) NaCl). Meso-diaminopimelic acid was present in the peptidoglycan. The predominant menaquinone was MK-7. The major polar lipid profile was phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidyl inositol-methyl and phosphotidylinositol dimannosid. The major fatty acids (>10% of total fatty acids) was anteiso-C15:0. DNA G+C content was 36.2 mol%. The level of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between strain GIMN1.014T and other recognized species of the family was below 94.9%. Phylogenetic analysis based 16S rRNA gene sequence data indicated that the strain GIMN1.014T fell with the family Bacillaceae and formed a distinct taxon. Based on physiological, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic analyses, Strain GIMN1.014T was considered to represent a novel species of a new genus, for which the name Jilinbacillus soli gen. nov., sp. nov. was proposed. The type strain of Jilinbacillus soli was GIMN1.014T (=CCTCC M2011164T =KCTC 33417T). |
