7c (19.6 %) and C18 : 17c (17.3 %), and the major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylcholine, which served to differentiate the strain from other members of the Roseobacter clade. On the basis of the taxonomic data obtained in this study, strain HTCC2654T represents a novel genus and species, for which the name Maritimibacter alkaliphilus gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HTCC2654T (=KCCM 42376T=NBRC 102057T).
A thin-layer chromatogram indicating the polar lipids of strain HTCC2654T and a transmission electron micrograph of a cell of strain HTCC2654T are available with the online version of this paper.

) in the order Rhodobacterales encompasses diverse members of marine alphaproteobacteria. Both culture-independent and culture-dependent surveys have shown that this clade is one of the most abundant 16S rRNA gene lineages in marine ecosystems. Since 2002, cultivation approaches involving high-throughput culturing using a dilution-to-extinction method (Button et al., 1993; Connon & Giovannoni, 2002) have allowed many hitherto uncultured members of the Roseobacter clade to be cultured. Among the isolates in the Roseobacter clade that were obtained by high-throughput culturing, six strains, designated HTCC2516T, HTCC2597T, HTCC2601T, HTCC2150, HTCC2255 and HTCC2654T, have been subjected to full genome shotgun sequencing (http://www.moore.org/microgenome). The drafts for their whole genome sequences have been deposited in the GenBank database. The binomial names of strains HTCC2516T, HTCC2597T and HTCC2601T have been validly published, on the basis of polyphasic taxonomy, as Oceanicola granulosus (Cho & Giovannoni, 2004), Oceanicola batsensis (Cho & Giovannoni, 2004) and Pelagibaca bermudensis (Cho & Giovannoni, 2006), respectively. Strains HTCC2150 and HTCC2255, isolated from the Oregon coast of the USA, do not form colonies on standard solid agar plates (such as marine agar 2216), which made polyphasic characterization difficult. Strain HTCC2654T, isolated from the western Sargasso Sea (Atlantic Ocean) grew well on marine agar 2216 (MA; Difco), and thus here we can report on the characterization of this strain. On the basis of our taxonomic evaluations, strain HTCC2654T represents a novel genus and species in the Roseobacter clade.
The extinction culture of strain HTCC2654T was obtained using previously described high-throughput culturing approaches (Cho & Giovannoni, 2003; Connon & Giovannoni, 2002). The strain was subsequently purified as single colonies on MA after incubation at 25 °C for 4 days, and was stored as 10 % (v/v) glycerol suspensions in liquid nitrogen and in a deep-freezer at –86 °C. Unless stated otherwise, the strain was grown routinely on MA at 30 °C for characterization studies.
DNA extraction, 16S rRNA gene amplification, and sequencing of the PCR products were performed as described previously (Cho & Giovannoni, 2003). Almost-complete 16S rRNA gene sequences (1407 bp) of strain HTCC2654T were obtained and used for phylogenetic analyses. Comparisons of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain HTCC2654T with those held in GenBank and Ribosomal Database Project II (Cole et al., 2005) showed that the strain belonged to the order Rhodobacterales of the class Alphaproteobacteria. To determine the phylogenetic relationships between strain HTCC2654T and other members of the Roseobacter clade, phylogenetic inferences were performed with the ARB software package (Ludwig et al., 2004) and PAUP* 4.0 beta 10 (Swofford, 2002). Reference sequences comprising more than 1300 bp were included in the phylogenetic analysis, and 1185 unambiguously aligned nucleotide positions were used. Comparisons with the ARB database showed that strain HTCC2654T was distantly related to the members of the Roseobacter clade. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of the strain with respect to species of the Rhodobacterales ranged from 90.4 to 95.1 %. The most closely related recognized species were Roseovarius crassostreae (95.1 % sequence similarity), followed by O. batsensis (94.5 %), Roseovarius tolerans (94.5 %), Thalassobius mediterraneus (94.4 %), Jannaschia rubra (94.1 %) and Jannaschia cystaugens (94.1 %). To clarify the phylogenetic position of the strain, phylogenetic trees were generated by using the neighbour-joining (Saitou & Nei, 1987), maximum-parsimony (Fitch, 1971) and maximum-likelihood (Felsenstein, 1981) approaches. The robustness of the neighbour-joining and maximum-parsimony trees was evaluated by performing bootstrap analyses based on 1000 resamplings. In all of the phylogenetic trees, strain HTCC2654T failed to form any robust phylogenetic clades with members of the Roseobacter clade, but did form an independent phyletic line (Fig. 1). Although the genera Roseovarius, Oceanicola, Thalassobius and Jannaschia were related to strain HTCC2654T with 94.1–95.1 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, strain HTCC2654T was not phylogenetically associated with any other genera of the Roseobacter clade. The most closely related species (on the basis of sequence similarity to strain HTCC2654T), i.e. R. crassostreae, was phylogenetically separated from the three other Roseovarius species (Fig. 1), suggesting a need for the reclassification of R. crassostreae to another taxon. The distant relationship between strain HTCC2654T and members of the order Rhodobacterales from the above phylogenetic analyses suggested that this strain represented a novel genus within the order Rhodobacterales in the class Alphaproteobacteria.

). Respiratory quinones were investigated, using reversed-phase HPLC, by the Korean Culture Center of Microorganisms (Seoul, Korea). Cellular fatty acid methyl esters were prepared from a culture grown on MA at 30 °C for 3 days, and analysed, according to the instructions of the Microbial Identification System (MIDI), by the Center. The estimated genome size, based on genome sequencing data, was approximately 4.5 mbp, coding for 4757 open reading frames. The DNA G+C content of strain HTCC2654T was 64.1 mol% from genome sequences and 61.7 mol% with the HPLC method. The only respiratory quinone detected was Q-10, which is a typical quinone of members of the Roseobacter clade. Polar lipids were extracted with chloroform/methanol/0.3 % NaCl (90 : 100 : 30, by vol.), purified and then identified as described by Minnikin et al. (1984). The major polar lipids found in strain HTCC2654T were phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol (see Supplementary Fig. S1 available in IJSEM Online), the profile being similar to those of the genera Ruegeria and Jannaschia, except that they lack diphosphatidylglycerol. The major fatty acids found in strain HTCC2654T, i.e. C16 : 0 2-OH (27.3 %), 11-methyl C18 : 17c (19.6 %), C18 : 17c (17.3 %) and C16 : 0 (15.3 %), were different with respect to other members of the Roseobacter clade (Table 1). Characteristics that serve to differentiate strain HTCC2654T from other species of the Roseobacter clade are listed in Table 1.

; Smibert & Krieg, 1994), at 30 °C with MA as the basal medium. Cell morphology was examined by using energy-filtering transmission electron microscopy (LIBLA120; Carl Zeiss) and phase-contrast and epifluorescence microscopy (Nikon 80i; Nikon). The presence of poly-
-hydroxyalkanoate granules was checked for by using epifluorescence microscopy after staining of the cells with Nile blue A (Ostle & Holt, 1982). Anaerobic growth was tested on MA at 30 °C using both the MGC anaerobic system and AnaeroPACK Anaero (Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Company). Colony morphology, size and colour were examined using cultures grown aerobically on MA at 30 °C for 3 days. For detecting bacteriochlorophyll a and carotenoids, pigments of strain HTCC2654T were extracted with acetone/methanol (1 : 1, v/v) and absorption spectra were determined using a scanning UV/visible spectrophotometer (Optizen 2120UV; Mechasis). The pH range and optimum were examined at pH values in the range 4.0–12.0. The pH was adjusted with 0.1 M HCl and 0.1 M NaOH. The NaCl concentration range and optimum for growth were determined in a medium that contained the following (1–1): 1.0 g MgCl2.6H2O, 5.0 g MgSO4.7H2O, 0.7 g KCl, 0.5 g NH4Cl, 0.27 g KH2PO4, 0.15 g CaCl2.2H2O, 0.1 g KBr, 0.04 g SrCl2.6H2O, 0.025 g H3BO3, 5.0 g peptone and 1.0 g yeast extract (pH 8.0) with 0–20 % NaCl (w/v). The catalase test was performed by adding 3.0 % hydrogen peroxide to fresh colonies, and oxidase activity was determined using Kovács' solution (Kovács, 1956). Biochemical tests and carbon-source utilization tests were carried out on API 20NE, API ZYM (both from bioMérieux) and Biolog GN2 microplates, with artificial seawater (l–1: 25.0 g NaCl, 1.0 g MgCl2.6H2O, 5.0 g MgSO4.7H2O, 0.7 g KCl, 0.15 g CaCl2.2H2O, 0.5 g NH4Cl, 0.1 g KBr, 0.27 g KH2PO4, 0.04 g SrCl2.6H2O and 0.025 g H3BO3), according to the manufacturers' instructions. The following antimicrobial agents were tested: ampicillin (10 µg), chloramphenicol (25 µg), erythromycin (15 µg), gentamicin (10 µg), kanamycin (30 µg), penicillin G (10 µg), rifampicin (50 µg), streptomycin (10 µg), tetracycline (30 µg) and vancomycin (30 µg).
Morphological, physiological, and biochemical characteristics of strain HTCC2654T are listed in the genus and species descriptions and in Table 1
. The strain was found to be Gram-negative, chemoheterotrophic, strictly aerobic, slightly alkaliphilic, to require NaCl for growth and to consist of non-motile, rod-shaped cells (see Supplementary Fig. S2 available in IJSEM Online). The strain did not produce bacteriochlorophyll a or poly--hydroxyalkanoate granules. These phenotypic characteristics, together with chemotaxonomic properties, serve to differentiate the strain from related genera of the Roseobacter clade (Table 1). The most important chemotaxonomic property that differentiates strain HTCC2654T from other members of the clade is the cellular fatty acid composition. Generally, the most dominant cellular fatty acid detected in members of the Roseobacter clade is cis-7-octadecenoic acid, with a content of approximately 60–80 % (Martens et al., 2006). The percentage of cis-7-octadecenoic acid in strain HTCC2654T was only 17.3 %, whereas hydroxyl (C16 : 0 2-OH, 27.3 %) and methyl (11-methyl C18 : 17c, 19.6 %) fatty acids were abundant. On the basis of phenotypic and chemotaxonomic traits, strain HTCC2654T cannot be characterized as a member of any of the known genera within the Roseobacter clade.
The combined phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, and phylogenetic evidence conclusively demonstrates that strain HTCC2654T represents a novel genus and species in the Roseobacter clade (order Rhodobacterales), for which the name Maritimibacter alkaliphilus gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed.
