Persicimonas caeni gen. nov., sp. nov., the Representative of a Novel Wide-Ranging Predatory Taxon in Bradymonadales.

ABSTRACT: A novel bacterial strain, designated YN101^T, was isolated from a marine solar saltern in the coast of Weihai, Shandong Province, China. Strain YN101^T was Gram-stain negative, facultatively anaerobic, oxidase and catalase negative bacterium with the ability to prey on other microbes. A cross-streaking culture method was utilized to analyze the predatory activity of strain YN101^T. The results showed strain YN101^T could prey on various bacteria, either Gram-stain negative or Gram-stain positive. According to the predatory assays, different species in the same genus may behave differently when attacked by strain YN101^T. The predatory behavior of strain YN101^T to four typical species was analyzed, and furthermore, predation to
