<i>Mucilaginibacter aureus</i> sp. nov. and <i>Mucilaginibacter sediminis</i> sp. nov., isolated from wetland soil.

ABSTRACT: Two Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterial strains, designated AW1-3^T (strictly aerobic) and AW1-7 ^T (facultatively aerobic), both catalase- and oxidase-positive, were isolated from a reed wetland in South Korea. Strain AW1-3^T grew at 15-35 °C, pH 6.0-7.0 and in 0.0-0.5% (w/v) NaCl, whereas strain AW1-7^T grew at 10-35 °C, pH 6.0-7.0 and in 0-0.5% NaCl. The major fatty acids (>10%) were iso-C_15:0 and summed feature 3 (C_16:1  ω7c and/or C_16 :1  ω6c) in strain AW1-3^T and C_16:0, summed feature 3, C_18:0 and iso-C_15:0 in strain AW1-7^T. Phosphatidylethanolamine was the major polar lipid in both strains, and menaquinone-7 was
