Zobellia amurskyensis sp. nov., Zobellia laminariae sp. nov. and Zobellia russellii sp. nov., novel marine bacteria of the family Flavobacteriaceae.
The taxonomic position of four newly isolated marine, heterotrophic, gliding, Gram-negative, aerobic, pigmented, agarolytic bacteria was established. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated affiliation of the isolates to the genus Zobellia in the family Flavobacteriaceae. DNA-DNA hybridization experiments revealed that the strains studied represent three distinct and novel species, for which the names Zobellia amurskyensis sp. nov., Zobellia laminariae sp. nov. and Zobellia russellii sp. nov. are proposed, with KMM 3526T (= LMG 22069T = CCUG 47080T), KMM 3676T (= LMG 22070T = CCUG 47083T) and KMM 3677T (= LMG 22071T = CCUG 47084T), respectively, as the type strains.
