Luteimonas terricola sp. nov., a psychrophilic bacterium isolated from soil.
Strain BZ92r(T) was isolated from hydrocarbon-contaminated soil. Cells were Gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped and cold-adapted (growth at 1-25 degrees C). The major fatty acids were iso-C(15 : 0) (25.6 %), iso-C(17 : 1)omega9c (24.9 %), iso-C(11 : 0) (18.4 %) and iso-C(11 : 0) 3-OH (16.2 %). The predominant ubiquinone was ubiquinone-8. The genomic DNA G+C content was 72.0 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain BZ92r(T) was a member of the genus Luteimonas (94.5-95.2 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity). On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic distinctiveness, strain BZ92r(T) was considered to represent a novel species of the genus Luteimonas. The name Luteimonas terricola sp. nov. is proposed, with BZ92r(T) (=DSM 22344(T) =CGMCC 1.8985(T)) as the type strain.
