-subclass of the Proteobacteria and that the closest related species is Pseudomonas graminis. The DNA G+C content was 61 mol%. DNADNA hybridization showed 23 % relatedness between strain IH5T and P. graminis DSM 11363T. Therefore, strain IH5T belongs to a novel species from the genus Pseudomonas, for which the name Pseudomonas rhizosphaerae sp. nov. is proposed (type strain, IH5T=LMG 21640T=CECT 5726T).
The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain IH5T is AY152673.
Electron micrographs of strain IH5T and a full phylogenetic tree are available as supplementary material in IJSEM Online.

During a wide study of phosphate-solubilizing, rhizospheric bacteria in soils from northern Spain, we isolated a strain that produced a yellow pigment in media that contained glucose as the carbon source and formed a transparent halo around its colonies in media that contained insoluble bicalcium phosphate as the phosphorus source.
A sample of rhizospheric soil of grasses was collected under aseptic conditions from land in northern Spain; 10 g was suspended in 90 ml sterile water and stirred for 30 min. From this suspension, 100 µl was spread on YED-P medium (7 g glucose l-1, 3 g yeast extract l-1, 3 g bicalcium phosphate l-1 and 17 g agar l-1) and incubated at 28 °C. A bacterial strain that actively solubilized phosphate was isolated. This strain, designated IH5T, was maintained as a glycerol suspension [25 % (v/v)] at -80 °C.
Strain IH5T was grown in nutrient agar medium for 48 h at 22 °C to check for motility by phase-contrast microscopy. Cells were also stained according to the classical Gram procedure described by Doetsch (1981)
. For electron microscopy, cells were grown on nutrient agar for 2 days then suspended gently in sterile water, stained with 0·2 % uranyl acetate and examined at 80 kV with a Zeiss EM 209 transmission electron microscope. Strain IH5T is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped organism (1·22·4x0·80·9 µm). Cells are motile with a polar flagellum (see Supplementary Fig. I, available in IJSEM Online) and grew as weakly translucent, yellow-coloured colonies on nutrient agar.
For 16S rDNA sequencing, DNA extraction was carried out as described previously (Rivas et al., 2001
). Amplification and sequencing of 16S rDNA were performed as described previously (Rivas et al., 2003a
). The sequence obtained was compared with those in GenBank by using the FASTA program (Pearson & Lipman, 1988
). Sequences were aligned by using CLUSTAL W software (Thompson et al., 1997
). Distances were calculated according to the methods of Jukes & Cantor (1969)
, Kimura (1980)
, Tajima & Nei (1984)
and Tamura & Nei (1993)
. Phylogenetic trees were inferred by using the neighbour-joining (Saitou & Nei, 1987
), maximum-likelihood (Yang, 1997
) and parsimony (Felsenstein, 1983
) analysis methods. Bootstrap analysis was based on 1000 resamplings. The MEGA 2.1.0 package (Kumar et al., 2001
) was used for all analyses. Trees were rooted by using Burkholderia graminis as the outgroup.
The complete 16S rDNA sequence for isolate IH5T (GenBank accession no. AY152673) was obtained (1531 nt). Comparison with all 16S rDNA sequences of Pseudomonas species with validly published names held in GenBank indicated that the organism is related phylogenetically to members of this genus. A phylogenetic tree obtained with Kimura's two-parameter model and the neighbour-joining method that included representative species of the genus Pseudomonas sensu stricto according to Anzai et al. (2000)
and the recently described species Pseudomonas grimontii (Baïda et al., 2002
), Pseudomonas kilonensis (Sikorski et al., 2001
), Pseudomonas lini (Delorme et al., 2002
), Pseudomonas tremae, Pseudomonas cannabina (Gardan et al., 1999
), Pseudomonas cremoricolorata and Pseudomonas parafulva (Uchino et al., 2001
) showed that strain IH5T forms a separate group with P. graminis DSM 11363T (see Supplementary Fig. II, available in IJSEM Online). Fig. 1
shows the phylogenetic placement of strain IH5T within the genus Pseudomonas. The same results were obtained when phylogenetic distances were calculated by using the JukesCantor one-parameter, Kimura two-parameter, TamuraNei three-parameter and TajimaNei four-parameter models. Trees obtained with the neighbour-joining, maximum-likelihood and parsimony methods (using, with each one, the four models already mentioned to calculate phylogenetic distances) also showed the same results (data not shown). Sequence similarity, based on pairwise sequence comparisons, was investigated by using complete 16S rDNA sequences. The data obtained showed that the 16S rDNA sequence of strain IH5T shows 9798 % similarity to many species of the genus Pseudomonas sensu stricto, except in the case of P. graminis (to which it shows 99 % similarity). Therefore, P. graminis and strain IH5T form a group within the genus Pseudomonas that is clearly distinguishable from the other species, based on 16S rRNA gene sequences. These results are in agreement with those of phenotypic analysis, which showed that P. graminis and strain IH5T belong to a separate group of Pseudomonas species that do not produce oxidase or fluorescent pigments. Taking these results into account, DNADNA hybridization was performed between P. graminis DSM 11363T and strain IH5T.

Strain IH5T showed a great ability to solubilize phosphates on YED-P plates. On the same medium and under the same culture conditions, P. graminis DSM 11363T showed a lower ability to solubilize phosphates: after 24 h incubation, phosphate solubilization was clearly positive in strain IH5T, but weak in P. graminis DSM 11363T. Optimal growth temperature was 25 °C on nutrient agar. The API 20NE and API 50CH systems were only used to characterize strain IH5T, because the identification of non-clinical isolates is often wrong. This fact was pointed out by Behrendt et al. (1999)
and coincides with the results obtained in our laboratory for many Gram-negative, aerobic, non-enteric isolates (data not shown). Table 1
shows differential phenotypic characteristics between strain IH5T and its closest phylogenetic relatives in the genus Pseudomonas sensu stricto: P. graminis (98·9 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), Pseudomonas jessenii and Pseudomonas agarici (>98 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity for both). According to the data, strain IH5T is very similar to P. graminis, forming a different phenotypic group within the genus Pseudomonas that is characterized by lack of oxidase and fluorescent pigment production. On the other hand, strain IH5T differs from P. graminis in aesculin hydrolysis and assimilation of erythritol and rhamnose.

For DNADNA hybridization analyses, DNA was isolated by chromatography on hydroxyapatite by following the procedure of Cashion et al. (1977)
, which was carried out as described by De Ley et al. (1970)
with the modification described by Huss et al. (1983)
and Escara & Hutton (1980)
, using a model 2600 spectophotometer equipped with a model 2527-R thermoprogrammer and plotter (Gilford Instrument Laboratories). Renaturation rates were computed with the TRANSFER.BAS program by Jahnke (1992)
. DNADNA homology was tested in 2x SSC+10 % (v/v) DMSO at 68 °C; the results showed 23 % hybridization between strain IH5T and P. graminis DSM 11363T. When the recommended threshold value of 70 % DNADNA similarity for species definition is considered (Wayne et al., 1987
), these results indicate that strain IH5T does not belong to P. graminis.
Therefore, on the basis of phylogenetic, chemotaxonomic and phenotypic data, strain IH5T should be classified as a novel species, for which we propose the name Pseudomonas rhizosphaerae sp. nov.
Differentiation from P. graminis
From the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic results of this study, we can conclude that P. rhizosphaerae IH5T forms a separate group within the genus Pseudomonas, together with P. graminis. Nevertheless, the novel species can be differentiated from P. graminis by phenotypic characteristics, such as aesculin hydrolysis and growth in the presence of rhamnose or erythritol as the sole carbon source. Fatty acid analysis revealed the presence of 3-hydroxydecanoic acid (C10 : 0 3-OH) in strain IH5T, which was absent in P. graminis [according to the data of Behrendt et al. (1999)
]. 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between P. rhizosphaerae and P. graminis was 98·8 % and DNADNA relatedness was 23 %.
Description of Pseudomonas rhizosphaerae sp. nov.
Pseudomonas rhizosphaerae (rhi.zo.sphae'rae. Gr. fem. n. rhiza root; L. fem. n. sphaera from Gr. fem. n. sphaira ball, globe, sphere; N.L. gen. fem. n. rhizosphaerae of the rhizosphere).
Gram-negative, strictly aerobic, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped cells, 1·22·4 µm in length and 0·80·9 µm in diameter. Motile with one polar flagellum. Colonies on YED agar are circular, convex, yellow, weakly translucent and usually 12 mm in diameter after 2 days growth at 28 °C. Strain IH5T is able to oxidize glucose in medium that contains ammonium nitrate as the nitrogen source and neutral red as a pH indicator, but is unable to ferment glucose in the same medium. Catalase is produced, but oxidase, gelatinase, caseinase, urease, arginine dehydrolase, tryptophan deaminase,
-galactosidase, indole and H2S are not. Aesculin is not hydrolysed. Strain IH5T utilizes L-arabinose, D-arabinose, D-xylose, ribose, mannose, galactose, D-fructose, L-sorbose, D-fucose, L-fucose, rhamnose, dulcitol, inositol, sorbitol, mannitol, adonitol, glycerol, erythritol, D-arabitol, gentiobiose, D-turanose, D-tagatose, caprate, malate, gluconate, 2-ketogluconate, 5-ketogluconate and citrate as sole carbon sources. By contrast, it does not grow in N-acetylglucosamine, maltose, adipate or phenylacetate. DNA G+C content of the type strain is 61 mol%.
The type strain is IH5T (=LMG 21640T=CECT 5726T).
