| Luteolibacter luojiensis sp. nov., isolated from Arctic tundra soil, and emended description of the genus Luteolibacter. | A yellow-pigmented, Gram-reaction-negative, non-motile, aerobic bacterium, designated DR4-30T, was isolated from a tundra soil near Ny-Ålesund, Svalbard Archipelago, Norway (78°N). Growth occurred at 4-28°C (optimum 20-25°C) and at pH 7.0-8.0 (optimum pH 7.0). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain DR4-30T belonged to the genus Luteolibacter in the family Verrucomicrobiaceae. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of this strain showed 95.4 and 94.7 % sequence similarit ... | 2011 | 22081723 |
