Aliidiomarina halalkaliphila sp. nov., a haloalkaliphilic bacterium isolated from a soda lake in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China.

ABSTRACT: A haloalkaliphilic strain (IM 1326^T) was isolated from brine sampled at a soda lake in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China. Cells of the strain were rod-shaped and motile. Strain IM 1326^T was able to grow at 4-42 °C (optimum, 37 °C) with 0-13.0 % (w/v) NaCl concentrations (optimum at 4.0-6.0 %) and at pH 7.5-11.0 (optimum at 9.0-10.0). The 16S rRNA gene phylogenetic analysis revealed that the isolate belongs to the genus Aliidiomarina and is closely related to the type strains of Aliidiomarina sanyensis (95.8 % sequence similarity), Aliidiomarina shirensis (95.7 %), Aliidiomarina iranensis (95.4 %) and Aliidiomarina haloalkalitolerans (95.3 %). The whole genome of strain IM 1326^T was sequenced, and the genomic DNA
