Tsu.ne.o.nel'la. N.L. fem. dim. n. Tsuneonella , named in honor of Tsuneo Shiba who established genus Erythrobacter . Pseudomonadota / Alphaproteobacteria / Sphingomonadales / Erythrobacteraceae / Tsuneonella The members of the genus Tsuneonella have been isolated from various environments, including air, freshwater, sediment, and sea urchin. Cells are ovoid to rod‐shaped, non‐spore‐forming, Gram‐stain‐negative, and nonmotile. They are aerobic or facultatively aerobic and contain carotenoid pigments but not bacteriochlorophyll a . The predominant quinone is ubiquinone‐10, and the major fatty acid is C 18:1 ω7 c or summed feature 8 (C 18:1 ω7 c and/or C 18:1 ω6 c ). The major polar lipids include diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE). Based on phylogenic analysis of the core genome, the genus Tsuneonella represents a distinct lineage in the family Erythrobacteraceae of the class Alphaproteobacteria . DNA G + C content (mol%) : 60.5–67.0 (genome sequence). Type species : Tsuneonella dongtanensis Xu et al. 2020 VP (basonym: Altererythrobacter dongtanensis Fan et al. 2011 VP ).

The family Erythrobacteraceae , belonging to the order Sphingomonadales , class Alphaproteobacteria , is globally distributed in various environments. Currently, this family consist of seven genera: Altererythrobacter , Croceibacterium , Croceicoccus , Erythrobacter , Erythromicrobium , Porphyrobacter and Qipengyuania . As more species are identified, the taxonomic status of the family Erythrobacteraceae should be revised at the genomic level because of its polyphyletic nature evident from 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. Phylogenomic reconstruction based on 288 single-copy orthologous clusters led to the identification of three separate clades. Pairwise comparisons of average nucleotide identity, average amino acid identity (AAI), percentage of conserved protein and evolutionary distance indicated that AAI and evolutionary distance had the highest correlation. Thresholds for genera boundaries were proposed as 70 % and 0.4 for AAI and evolutionary distance, respectively. Based on the phylo-genomic and genomic similarity analysis, the three clades were classified into 16 genera, including 11 novel ones, for which the names Alteraurantiacibacter, Altericroceibacterium, Alteriqipengyuania, Alteripontixanthobacter, Aurantiacibacter, Paraurantiacibacter, Parerythrobacter, Parapontixanthobacter, Pelagerythrobacter, Tsuneonella and Pontixanthobacter are proposed. We reclassified all species of Erythromicrobium and Porphyrobacter as species of Erythrobacter . This study is the first genomic-based study of the family Erythrobacteraceae , and will contribute to further insights into the evolution of this family.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
