title: Solirubrobacter soli sp. nov., isolated from soil of a ginseng field.
abstract: A Gram-positive, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped and non-motile bacterium, strain Gsoil 355(T), was isolated from soil of a ginseng field in South Korea. In phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, strain Gsoil 355(T) showed the highest levels of sequence similarity with respect to Solirubrobacter pauli B33D1(T) (97.4 %), Conexibacter woesei DSM 14684(T) (94.2 %) and Patulibacter minatonensis KV-614(T) (91.8 %). The strain possesses menaquinone MK-7(H(4)) and contains C(16 : 0) and C(18 : 0) omega 9c as the predominant fatty acids. The DNA G+C content is 71.5 mol%. On the basis of genotypic and phenotypic characteristics, strain Gsoil 355(T) represents a novel species of the genus Solirubrobacter, for which the name Solirubrobacter soli sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Gsoil 355(T) (=KCTC 12628(T)=LMG 23485(T)).
