Strain CCM 2783, previously classified as representing Arthrobacter aurescens, was subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis and chemotaxonomic characteristics such as peptidoglycan type A3
LysAla2, major menaquinone MK-9(H2) and fatty acid composition confirmed assignment of the strain to the genus Arthrobacter. The results of phylogenetic analysis, DNADNA relatedness experiments and physiological and chemotaxonomic characteristics indicate that CCM 2783 differs from its nearest phylogenetic relative Arthrobacter psychrolactophilus and from other recognized Arthrobacter species. Therefore, a novel species, Arthrobacter stackebrandtii sp. nov., is proposed with the type strain CCM 2783T (=DSM 16005T).
The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain CCM 2783T is AJ640198
An extended neighbour-joining tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis is available as a supplementary figure in IJSEM Online.
