N2 - Strain Jip14T, a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped, non-motile bacterium, was isolated from dried rice straw and characterized in order to determine its taxonomic position. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain Jip14T belongs to the family Sphingobacteriaceae, and the highest degree of sequence similarity was determined to be to Pedobacter saltans DSM 12145T (88.5%), Pedobacter africanus DSM 12126T (87.6%), Pedobacter heparinus DSM 2366T (87.1%) and Pedobacter caeni LMG 22862T (86.9%). Chemotaxonomic data revealed that strain Jip14T possesses menaquinone MK-7 and the predominant fatty acids C15:0 iso, C16:0, C16:0 10-methyl, C17:0 iso 3-OH and summed feature 3(C150 iso 2-OH/C16:1ω7c). The results of physiological and biochemical tests clearly demonstrated that strain Jip14T represents a distinct species. Based on these data, Jip14T should be classified within a novel genus and species, for which the name Parapedobacter koreensis gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Parapedobacter koreensis is Jip14T (=KCTC 12643T=LMG 23493T).
