Salmonirosea aquatica gen. nov., sp. nov., a Novel Genus within the Family Spirosomaceae, Was Isolated from Brackish Water in the Republic of Korea.

ABSTRACT: A Gram-stain-negative, obligately aerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterial strain designated SJW1-29^T was isolated from brackish water samples collected from the Seomjin River, Republic of Korea. The purpose of this study was to characterize strain SJW1-29^T and determine its taxonomic position as a potential new genus within the family Spirosomaceae. The strain grew within the range of 10-30 °C (optimum, 25 °C), pH 5.0-10.0 (optimum, 7.0), and 1-4% NaCl (optimum, 3%). Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene revealed that strain SJW1-29^T belongs to the family Spirosomaceae and is closely related to Persicitalea jodogahamensis Shu-9-SY12-35C^T (91.3% similarity), Rhabdobacter roseus R491^T (90.6%), and
