A bacterial strain (CC-TWGS1-8T) isolated from a tar-contaminated soil in Taiwan was studied in a detailed taxonomic study. The cells were Gram-negative, rod-shaped and non-spore-forming. Phylogenetic analyses using the 16S rRNA gene sequence of the strain clearly revealed an affiliation to the genus Chryseobacterium, the highest sequence similarities being to the type strain of Chryseobacterium indologenes (96·8 %), to Chryseobacterium gleum (96·8 %) and to Chryseobacterium joostei (96·4 %). The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities to all other Chryseobacterium species were below 96 %. The major whole-cell fatty acids were 15 : 0 iso (35·4 %) and 17 : 0 iso 3OH (22·5 %). DNA–DNA hybridization values and the biochemical and chemotaxonomic properties demonstrate that strain CC-TWGS1-8T represents a novel species, for which the name Chryseobacterium taichungense sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CC-TWGS1-8T (=CCUG 50001T=CIP 108519T).

At present, the genus Chryseobacterium contains 12 species: Chryseobacterium balustinum, Chryseobacterium gleum, Chryseobacterium indologenes, Chryseobacterium indoltheticum, Chryseobacterium meningosepticum, Chryseobacterium miricola, Chryseobacterium proteolyticum’ (name not validated), Chryseobacterium scophthalmum, Chryseobacterium joostei, Chryseobacterium defluvii, Chryseobacterium daecheongense and Chryseobacterium formosense. These species and their taxonomy have been extensively described in recently published reports (Hugo et al., 2003Go; Li et al., 2003Go; Kämpfer et al., 2003Go; Young et al., 2005Go).

A yellow-pigmented isolate from a tar-contaminated soil from Taichung, Taiwan, was obtained on nutrient agar. This strain (CC-TWGS1-8T) was maintained and subcultured on nutrient agar (Oxoid) at 30 °C for 48 h and subsequently analysed to determine the 16S rRNA gene sequence, the fatty acid methyl ester composition of whole-cell hydrolysates, additional phenotypic characteristics, and DNA–DNA relatedness to those species most closely related on the basis of 16S rRNA similarity.

Cultural and morphological characteristics were observed on nutrient agar. The Gram reaction was tested by using the modified method of Gerhardt et al. (1994)Go, while motility was examined microscopically from cells grown for 3 days in motility broth (Cowan, 1974Go) at 30 °C.

Strain CC-TWGS1-8T was Gram-negative and formed visible (about 2 mm) yellowish colonies in 48 h at 30 °C. No growth was observed below 10 °C or above 37 °C. At 15–36 °C, clearly visible colonies appeared within 48 h. The colonies were translucent and shiny with entire edges, but upon prolonged incubation the colonies were not visible as single entities, probably because of the profuse production of extracellular substances. A bright-yellow pigment (flexirubin) was produced on nutrient agar. Oxidase activity was tested using oxidase reagent (bioMérieux) according to the instructions of the manufacturer. Strain CC-TWGS1-8T was oxidase-positive. Cells were non-motile, non-spore-forming rods (1 µm wide by 2 µm long). CC-TWGS1-8T was able to grow well on nutrient agar, brain heart infusion agar (Oxoid) and trypticase soy agar (Oxoid) but was unable to grow on MacConkey agar (Oxoid).

Physiological characterization and additional biochemical tests were performed to assess the carbon-source utilization pattern, while the hydrolysis of 19 substrates was investigated as described by Kämpfer et al. (1991)Go. Additional biochemical tests were performed using the Micronaut-E system (formerly called the Titertek-Enterobac-Automated System; Kämpfer, 1990Go). Growth was also investigated at different temperatures (4, 11, 30, 37 and 45 °C) in nutrient broth. The API ZYM system (bioMérieux) was used to test for the presence of 19 constitutive enzymes.

The cellular fatty acid composition (determined using the method described by Kämpfer & Kroppenstedt, 1996Go) showed that 15 : 0 iso was the most abundant fatty acid (35·4 %), followed by 17 : 0 iso 3OH (22·5 %) and summed feature 4 (15 : 0 iso 2OH/16 : 1{omega}7t, 13·8 %). Table 1Go shows the fatty acid pattern for strain CC-TWGS1-8T in comparison with those of all other Chryseobacterium species.

Table 1. Long-chain fatty acid composition of Chryseobacterium species and related bacteria

Taxa: 1, C. taichungense sp. nov. (n=1); 2, C. formosense (n=1); 3, C. defluvii (n=1); 4, C. joostei (n=11); 5, C. gleum (n=5); 6, C. indologenes (n=45); 7, C. balustinum (n=1); 8, C. indoltheticum (n=1); 9, C. scophthalmum (n=2); 10, C. meningosepticum (n=1); 11, C. miricola (n=1); 12, Bergeyella zoohelcum (n=1); 13, Empedobacter brevis (n=6). Fatty acid percentages amounting to less than 1 % of the total fatty acids in all strains were not included. Means±SD are given. Tr, Trace (less than 1·0 %); ND, not detected. Data are from Hugo et al. (2003)Go, Kämpfer et al. (2003)Go, Li et al. (2003)Go and Young et al. (2005)Go.

 
The 16S rRNA gene was analysed as described by Kämpfer et al. (2003)Go. A phylogenetic analysis (Fig. 1Go) was performed using the software package MEGA (Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis) version 2.1 (Kumar et al., 2001Go) after multiple sequence alignment of data by using CLUSTAL_X (Thompson et al., 1997Go). Distances (using distance options according to the Kimura two-parameter model) and clustering using the neighbour-joining method and maximum parsimony (all according to Kumar et al., 2001Go) were determined by using bootstrap values based on 1000 replications. Strain CC-TWGS1-8T was phylogenetically most closely related to species of the genus Chryseobacterium. According to the sequence similarity calculations, the most closely related strains were the type strains of C. indologenes and C. gleum, both of which showed 96·8 % similarity to strain CC-TWGS1-8T. Furthermore, the type strain of C. joostei showed 96·4 % 16S rRNA sequence similarity to CC-TWGS1-8T, whereas sequence similarities were below 96·0 % for all other Chryseobacterium species.

Fig. 1. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences available from the European Molecular Biology Laboratory database (accession numbers are given in parentheses), constructed after multiple alignment of data by using CLUSTAL_X (Thompson et al., 1997Go). Distances (distance options according to the Kimura two-parameter model) and clustering with the neighbour-joining method were determined by using the software packages MEGA (Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis) version 2.1 (Kumar et al., 2001Go). Bootstrap values, based on 1000 replications, are given as percentages at the branching points. Bar, 0·02 nt substitution (Knuc) unit.

 
DNA–DNA hybridization experiments were performed with CC-TWGS1-8T and type strains of the three most closely related Chryseobacterium species, using a method described by Ziemke et al. (1998)Go (except that for nick translation, 2 µg DNA was labelled during a 3 h incubation at 15 °C). Strain CC-TWGS1-8T showed relatively low DNA–DNA hybridization to the type strains of C. indologenes (LMG 8337T; 34·1 %, reciprocal 25·1 %), C. gleum (LMG 8334T; 43·4 %, reciprocal 35·1 %) and C. joostei (CIP 105533T; 10·7 %, reciprocal 21·1 %).

Strain CC-TWGS1-8T utilized only a few carbon sources but was able to hydrolyse many chromogenic substrates. The results of biochemical/physiological tests are given in Table 2Go and in the species description.

Data for reference species were taken from Kämpfer et al. (2003)Go, Li et al. (2003)Go, Hugo et al. (2003)Go and Young et al. (2005)Go. n, Number of strains tested; +, all strains tested positive; (+), weakly positive; –, all strains tested negative; NA, not available. Two figures separated by a solidus (/) refer to the number of positive strains out of the number of strains tested.

 
On the basis of the results of this polyphasic study, it is clear that strain CC-TWGS1-8T represents a novel species of the genus Chryseobacterium, for which the name Chryseobacterium taichungense sp. nov. is proposed.

Description of Chryseobacterium taichungense sp. nov.
Chryseobacterium taichungense (tai.chung'en.se. N.L. neut. adj. taichungense pertaining to Taichung, a province in Taiwan).

Cells are Gram-negative, non-motile, non-spore-forming rods (approx. 2 µm in length). Aerobic, oxidase-positive, shows good growth after 48 h on nutrient agar, brain heart infusion agar and trypticase soy agar at 11–36 °C, but unable to grow on MacConkey agar. Colonies on nutrient agar are smooth, yellowish, circular, translucent and shiny with entire edges, becoming mucoid and unidentifiable as single entities after prolonged incubation. The yellow pigmentation is non-diffusible and non-fluorescent. Unable to grow at 4 and 45 °C. Positive for gelatinase activity. Grows well over a broad range of pH values (6·0–9·0) but grows better in neutral or weakly alkaline conditions (pH 7·0–8·0). Major cellular fatty acids are 15 : 0 iso and 17 : 0 iso 3OH.
