Abstract

A Gram-positive, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped and non-motile bacterium, strain Gsoil 355T, was isolated from soil of a ginseng field in South Korea. In phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, strain Gsoil 355T showed the highest levels of sequence similarity with respect to Solirubrobacter pauli B33D1T (97.4%), Conexibacter woesei DSM 14684T (94.2%) and Patulibacter minatonensis KV-614T (91.8%). The strain possesses menaquinone MK-7(H4) and contains C16:0 and C18:0ω9c as the predominant fatty acids. The DNA G + C content is 71.5 mol%. On the basis of genotypic and phenotypic characteristics, strain Gsoil 355T represents a novel species of the genus Solirubrobacter, for which the name Solirubrobacter soli sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Gsoil 355T (=KCTC 12628T = LMG 23485T).
