Abstract
- A Gram-staining-positive, non-motile, coccus or short-rod-shaped bacterium, designated H1<superscript>T</superscript>, was isolated from a humus soil sample in the Detaille Island of Antarctica. The 16S rRNA gene sequence result indicated that strain H1<superscript>T</superscript> shared the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence identity with the type strain of Deinococcus alpinitundrae (96.2%). Growth of strain H1<superscript>T</superscript> occurred at 4–25 °C, pH 6.0–8.0 and in the presence of 0–1.0% NaCl (w/v). The respiratory quinone was MK-8. The major fatty acids were C<subscript>16:0</subscript>, C<subscript>17:0</subscript> cyclo and summed feature 3 (C<subscript>16:1</subscript>ω7c/C<subscript>16:1</subscript>ω6c). The polar lipids were aminoglycophospholipid, aminophospholipid, glycolipid and glycophospholipid. The cell wall peptidoglycan type was A3β. The genomic DNA G + C content was 61.3 mol%. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) between strain H1<superscript>T</superscript> and the closely related Deinococcus members was below the cut-off level (95–96%) for species identification. Based on the above results, strain H1<superscript>T</superscript> represents a novel species of the genus Deinococcus, for which the name Deinococcus detaillensis sp. nov. is proposed. Type strain is H1<superscript>T</superscript> (= CGMCC 1.13938<superscript>T</superscript> = JCM 33291<superscript>T</superscript>). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
