Paramixta manurensis gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel member of the family Erwiniaceae producing indole-3-acetic acid isolated from mushroom compost.

ABSTRACT: There are numerous species in the Erwiniaceae family that are important for agricultural and clinical purposes. Here we described the Erwiniaceae bacterium PD-1 isolated from mushroom (Pleurotus eryngii) compost. Comparative genomic and phylogenetic analyses showed that the strain PD-1 was assigned to a new genus and species, Paramixta manurensis gen. nov., sp. nov. in the family Erwiniaceae. From the average amino acid index, we identified the five AroBEKAC proteins in the shikimate pathway as a minimal set of molecular markers to reconstruct the phylogenetic tree of the Erwiniaceae species. The strain PD-1 containing annotated genes for ubiquinone and menaquinone produced a higher level of ubiquinone (Q8) than demethylmenaquinone (DMK8) and menaquinone (MK8) in anaerobic condition compar
