Yellow-pigmented, Gram-negative organisms isolated from raw chicken were investigated by means of a polyphasic taxonomic approach and were shown to represent a novel species in the genus Chryseobacterium, for which the name Chryseobacterium vrystaatense sp. nov. is proposed. Its nearest phylogenetic neighbours were Chryseobacterium joostei, Chryseobacterium indologenes and Chryseobacterium gleum, which showed 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity levels of 96·9, 97·1 and 96·1 %, respectively. Levels of DNA–DNA hybridization between strains of C. vrystaatense and Chryseobacterium reference species were below 46 %. Strain LMG 22846^T (=CCUG 50970^T) was chosen as the type strain and has a DNA G+C content of 37·1 mol%.

The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession numbers for the 16S rRNA gene sequences of Chryseobacterium vrystaatense LMG 22846^T and LMG 22954 are AJ871397 and AJ871398, respectively.

A dendrogram derived from the unweighted pair group mean linkage of correlation coefficients between the whole-cell protein profiles of C. vrystaatense and reference strains of related taxa and a table detailing the strains investigated and their origin are available as supplementary material in IJSEM Online.
