A Gram-negative, non-flagellated, non-spore-forming and rod-shaped bacterial strain, SW-152^T, was isolated from sea water of the Yellow Sea in Korea, and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. Strain SW-152^T grew optimally at 30 °C and in the presence of 2–3 % (w/v) NaCl. It contained MK-7 as the predominant menaquinone and iso-C_{15 : 0} and iso-C_{15 : 1} as the major fatty acids. Polar lipids detected in strain SW-152^T were phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol and unidentified lipids. The DNA G+C content was 40·3 mol%. Phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences exhibited that strain SW-152^T forms a distinct evolutionary lineage within the Cytophaga–Flavobacterium–Bacteroides (CFB) group. Strain SW-152^T exhibited low 16S rRNA similarity levels of less than 89·4 % to members belonging to the CFB group. Phenotypic properties of strain SW-152^T differentiate it from phylogenetically related taxa. On the basis of phenotypic and phylogenetic data, strain SW-152^T (=KCTC 12312^T=JCM 12600^T) was classified in a novel genus and species, Marinicola seohaensis gen. nov., sp. nov.

Published online ahead of print on 5 November 2004 as DOI 10.1099/ijs.0.63492-0.

The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain SW-152^T is AY739663.
