A Gram-positive, aerobic, rod-shaped and non-motile bacterium, designated strain KP02T, was isolated from soil from a ginseng field in Daejeon, South Korea. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, this strain was shown to be related to Pseudoclavibacter alba NBRC 15616 (95.5 %), Pseudoclavibacter faecalis NBRC 15706 (93.9 %), Pseudoclavibacter helvolus DSM 20419T (93.7 %) and Pseudoclavibacter bifida IAM 14848 (93.0 %). Chemotaxonomic data revealed that strain KP02T possessed MK-9 and MK-8 as major menaquinones and anteiso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 and C16 : 0 as predominant fatty acids. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain KP02T was 64.4 mol%. The physiological and biochemical tests suggested that strain KP02T represents a novel species. Based on these data, strain KP02T (=KCTC 19255T=JCM 15058T) should be classified as the type strain of a novel Pseudoclavibacter species, for which the name Pseudoclavibacter soli sp. nov. is proposed.
A table showing the cellular fatty acid profiles of strain KP02T and related species is available as supplementary material with the online version of this paper.
