TL;DR: Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain Npb-03(T) forms a distinct lineage with respect to closely related genera within the family Neisseriaceae of the class Betaproteobacteria, most closely related to the genera Aquaspirillum, Laribacter, Leeia and Microvirgula.
Abstract: A bacterial strain, designated Npb-03T, was isolated from a freshwater river in Taiwan and was characterized using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The cells were Gram-reaction-negative, straight rod-shaped, non-motile, non-spore-forming and facultatively anaerobic. Growth occurred at 10–37 °C (optimum, 30–35 °C), at pH 6.0–8.0 (optimum, pH 6.0–7.0) and with 0–1.0 % NaCl (optimum, 0 %). The predominant fatty acids were summed feature 3 (comprising C16 : 1ω7c and/or C16 : 1ω6c) and C16 : 0. The major isoprenoid quinone was Q-8 and the DNA G+C content was 64.1 mol%. The polar lipid profile consisted of a mixture of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, an uncharacterized aminolipid and three uncharacterized phospholipids. The major polyamines were putrescine, 2-hydroxyputrescine, cadaverine and spermidine. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain Npb-03T forms a distinct lineage with respect to closely related genera within the family
Neisseriaceae
of the class
Betaproteobacteria
, most closely related to the genera
Aquaspirillum
,
Laribacter
,
Leeia
and
Microvirgula
, and the levels of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with respect to the type species of related genera are less than 93 %. On the basis of the genotypic and phenotypic data, strain Npb-03T represents a novel genus and species of the family
Neisseriaceae
, for which the name Rivicola pingtungensis gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Npb-03T ( = BCRC 80376T = LMG 26668T = KCTC 23712T).
