title: Nevskia soli sp. nov., isolated from soil cultivated with Korean ginseng.
abstract: A Gram-negative bacterium, designated strain GR15-1(T), was isolated from a field cultivated with Korean ginseng. Cells were strictly aerobic, motile with multipolar flagella and rod-shaped. The strain grew optimally at 25-28 degrees C and pH 6.0-7.0. The predominant fatty acids of strain GR15-1(T) were C(18 : 1)omega7c, C(16 : 0) and summed feature 2 (C(14 : 0) 3-OH and/or iso-C(16 : 1) I). The major isoprenoid quinone was ubiquinone 8. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 63.9 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis showed that strain GR15-1(T) formed a phyletic cluster with Nevskia ramosa Soe1(T), with a 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 96.8 %. Based on phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic features, strain GR15-1(T) represents a novel species within the genus Nevskia, for which the name Nevskia soli sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is GR15-1(T) (=KACC 11703(T) =DSM 19509(T)).
