Abstract

A Gram-negative, non-motile, non-spore-forming, ovoid-shaped bacterium designated as SWU3^T was isolated from mountain soil collected at Seoul Women’s University, South Korea. Based on 16S rRNA sequence analysis, strain SWU3^T was found to belong to the genus Altererythrobacter. It shares high sequence similarities with A. dongtanensis JM27^T (96.6 %), A. epoxidivorans JCS350^T (96.6 %), and A. troitsensis KMM 6042^T (96.5 %). Growth was observed between 15 and 37 °C (optimum, 30 °C) with pH of 6–9 (optimum, pH 7.0). It could tolerate 0–2 % (w/v) NaCl. Its predominant quinone was found to be ubiquinone (Q-10). Its major cellular fatty acids were determined to be C_17:1ω6c, C_18:1ω7c, and summed featured 3 (C_16:1ω7c/C_16:1ω6c), all of which are similar characteristics to those of species within the genus Altererythrobacter. Its G + C molar content was found to be 58.4 mol%. Phylogenetic evidence, together with phenotypic characteristics showed that strain SWU3^T represents a new species of the genus Altererythrobacter. The name Altererythrobacter terrae sp. nov. is proposed and the type strain is SWU3^T (=KEMB 9004-128^T = JCM 19177^T).
