Chryseobacterium lacus sp. nov. Isolated From the Surface Water of Two Lakes With Light-Induced Carotenoid Production.

ABSTRACT: Two Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, gliding, catalase-positive, and facultative anaerobic strains, YLOS41^T and XH07, were isolated from surface water of Yilong Lake and West Lake of Dali in Yunnan Province, respectively. Both strains were yellow-colored under light conditions and white-colored under dark conditions. The results of physiological and chemotaxonomic characterization, sequencing and phylogenetic analysis, and draft genome sequence comparison demonstrated that the two strains represented a single novel species within the genus Chryseobacterium, for which the name Chryseobacterium lacus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YLOS41^T (= KCTC 62352^T = MCCC 1H00300^T), and the second strain is XH07 (= KCTC 62993). During t
