Salinicoccus salsiraiae sp. nov.: a new moderately halophilic gram-positive bacterium isolated from salted skate

Abstract: Two moderately halophilic low G + C Grampositive bacteria were isolated from a sample of salted skate (Class Chondrychthyes, Genus Raja). Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strains RH1 T and RH4 showed that these organisms represented a novel species of the genus Salinicoccus. The new isolates formed pink-red colonies and flocculated in liquid media, with optimum growth in media containing 4% NaCl and pH of about 8.0. These organisms are aerobic but reduce nitrate to nitrite under anaerobic… Show more

“…Currently, the genus comprises a total of 17 validly published species (www.bacterio.net/genus/salinicoccus), commonly isolated from salt rich environments viz. S. roseus (solar saltern) [1], Salinicoccus hispanicus (solar saltern) [2, 3], Salinicoccus alkaliphilus (soda lake) [4], Salinicoccus salsiraiae (salted skate) [5], Salinicoccus jeotgali (fermented seafood called ‘jeotgal’) [6], Salinicoccus kunmingensis (brine sample from a salt mine) [7], Salinicoccus luteus (desert soil) [8], Salinicoccus siamensis (fermented shrimp paste) [9], Salinicoccus iranensis (textile industry wastewater) [10], Salinicoccus halodurans (saline soil) [11], Salinicoccus albus (salt mine) [12], Salinicoccus carnicancri (crabs preserved in soy sauce) [13], Salinicoccus sesuvii (rhizosphere of Sesuvium portulacastrum ) [14], Salinicoccus qingdaonensis (seawater) [15], Salinicoccus halitifaciens (soda lake) [16], Salinicoccus sediminis (marine sediment) [17] and Salinicoccus amylolyticus (saltern) [18]. In addition, Salinicoccus salitudinis (saline soil) and Salinicoccus kekensis (salt lake) have been proposed [19, 20].…”

“…The main features of this genus are as follows: Gram-positive, non-motile, non-spore form ing cocci, a DNA G?C content of 46-51 mol%, MK-6 as the predominant respiratory quinone and L-LysGly 5 as the cell-wall peptidoglycan type (Aslam et al 2007;Chen et al 2009). At the time of writing, the genus comprised thirteen species with validly published names: Salinicoccus roseus (Ventosa et al 1990), Salinicoccus hispanicus (Ventosa et al 1992), Salinicoccus alkaliphilus (Zhang et al 2002), Salinicoccus salsiraiae (França et al 2006), Salinicoccus jeotgali (Aslam et al 2007), Salinicoccus luteus (Zhang et al 2007), Salinicoccus siamensis (Pakdeeto et al 2007), Salinicoccus kunmingernsis (Chen et al 2007), Salinicoccus iramensis (Amoozegar et al 2008), Salinicoccus salitudinis (Chen et al 2008), Salinicoccus halodurans (Wang et al 2008), Salinicoccus albus (Chen et al 2009) and Salinicoccus carnicancri (Jung et al 2009). In the recent study of the microbial diversity of the Keke Salt Lake (36°50 0 -37°06 0 N, 97°58 0 -98°30 0 E) in Qinghai, northwest China, we show that a strain, designated K164 T , represents a novel moderate halophilic species of the genus Salinicoccus on the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic characterization and 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis.…”
