title: Roseomonas arcticasp. nov., isolated from arctic glacial foreland soil.
abstract: A novel psychrotolerant bacterium, designed strain M6-79T, was isolated from an arctic glacial foreland soil sample collected from Ny-Ålesund in the Svalbard Archipelago, Norway. Cells of strain M6-79Twere Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped and produced a red-pigment. Strain M6-79Twas strictly aerobic, non-motile, non-endospore-forming, oxidase-negative and catalase-positive. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain M6-79Twas phylogenetically related toRoseomonas aquaticaTR53T(95.2 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity),Roseomonas lacusTH-G33T(94.3 %), 'Roseomonas sediminicola'FW-3 (94.3 %),Roseomonas terraeDS-48T(94.1 %) andRoseomonas soli5N26T(94.1 %). The unique isoprenoid quinone detected in strain M6-79Twas Q-9. The polar lipid profile consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, one unknown aminolipid and one unknown lipid. Strain M6-79Tpossessed C18 : 1ω7c, C16 : 0and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω6cand/or C16 : 1ω7c) as the predominant fatty acids, and the DNA G+C content was 71.2 mol%. Combined data from phylogenetic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic studies revealed that strain M6-79Trepresents a novel species of the genusRoseomonas, for which the nameRoseomonas arcticasp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is strain M6-79T( = CCTCC AB 2013101T= LMG 28251T).
