A Gram-variable, facultatively anaerobic, endospore-forming bacterium was isolated from surface-sterilized seeds of the garden pea and characterized with phenotypic and molecular methods. A PCR with the Paenibacillus-specific primer PAEN515F and the 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that strain C/2T belongs to the genus Paenibacillus and is closely related to Paenibacillus phyllosphaerae (94·0 % sequence similarity). Strain C/2T generated a unique phenotypic profile, in particular for the production of acid from substrates. The DNA G+C content (50·8 mol%) and the major fatty acid (anteiso-C15 : 0) are consistent with the genus Paenibacillus. DNA–DNA hybridization distinguished strain C/2T from other phylogenetically related Paenibacillus species and, therefore, strain C/2T (=CCM 4839T=LMG 23002T) is here described as the type strain of a novel species, for which the name Paenibacillus mendelii sp. nov. is proposed.


Published online ahead of print on 8 July 2005 as DOI 10.1099/ijs.0.63759-0.

The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain C/2T is AF537343.

Fatty acid profiles, DNA relatedness data and an extended phylogenetic tree for strain C/2T and related Paenibacillus species are available as supplementary material in IJSEM Online.
