Journal Article
Salinicoccus kekensis sp. nov., a novel alkaliphile and moderate halophile isolated from Keke Salt Lake in Qinghai, China
2010
Overview
A novel alkaliphilic and moderate halophilic bacterium, designated strain K164
T
, was isolated from Keke Salt Lake in Qinghai, China. The strain grew with 2.0–20.0% (w/v) NaCl, at 4–50°C and pH 6.5–11.5, with an optimum of 8% (w/v) NaCl, 37°C and pH 10, respectively. The predominant respiratory quinone was menaquinone 6 (MK-6) and the major polar lipid was phosphatidylethanolamine. The major cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C
15:0
and iso-C
15:0
. The genomic DNA G+C content was 50.16 mol. Phylogenetic analysis based on the full-length 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain K164
T
was a member of the genus
Salinicoccus
. Strain K164
T
showed the highest similarity (98.4%) with
Salinicoccus alkaliphilus
AS 1.2691
T
and below 97% similarity with other recognized members of the genus in 16S rRNA gene sequence. Level of DNA–DNA relatedness between strain K164
T
and
Salinicoccus alkaliphilus
AS 1.2691
T
was 20.1%. On the basis of its phenotypic characteristics and the level of DNA–DNA hybridization, strain K164
T
is considered to represent a novel species of the genus
Salinicoccus
, for which the name
Salinicoccus kekensis
sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is K164
T
(=CGMCC 1.10337
T
= DSM 23173
T
).
