Description of two new species ofHalomonas:Halomonas israelensissp.nov. andHalomonas canadensissp.nov.

Abstract: Six well-known strains of halotolerant bacteria, including two strains previously identified only as NRCC 41227 and Ba1, have been compared using 125 phenotypic characters and DNA-DNA hybridization. Although these strains represent some of the most heavily studied salt-tolerant bacteria, they have never been taxonomically compared. The data presented show that these bacteria form a relatively homogeneous group related at the genus level. The taxonomic comparison showed that these six organisms represented four… Show more

“…Several tests allowed the differentiation of H. canadensis and H. israelensis from each other as well as from C. marismortui (Table 2) or species of the genus Halomonas. In the original proposal (Huval et al, 1995), H. canadensis and H. israelensis were classified within the genus Halomonas according to their phenotypic characteristics and DNA-DNA hybridization experiments, but only four Halomonas strains (representing three species) were used for comparison. However, the phylogenetic relationships of these two species were not determined.…”

“…The description of Chromohalobacter israelensis comb. nov. is the same as that published for H. israelensis (Huval et al, 1995) with a few additions : the cell size was determined to be 0n6-0n9i1n5-4n2 µm, hydrolysis of casein, DNA, aesculin, gelatin and starch is negative and the GjC content of the DNA is 65 mol % (T m method). The accession number of the 16S rDNA sequence is AJ295144.…”
