Popis: | Two indigo-reducing alkaliphilic strains, designated strain C40T and strain N214, were isolated from a fermented Polygonum Indigo (Polygonum tinctorium Lour.) liquor sample aged for 10 months and obtained from Date City, Hokkaido, Japan. 16S rRNA gene sequence phylogeny suggested that strains C40T and N214 were members of the genus Amphibacillus with the closest relative being Amphibacillus xylanus JCM 7361T (97.5 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with strain C40T), which is the only strain having a 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity higher than 97 % with strain C40T. Cells of strain C40T were Gram-stain-positive, facultatively anaerobic, straight rods that were motile by means of peritrichous flagella. The strains grew between 17 and 39 °C (optimum, 35 °C) and in the pH range of 9.0–12.0. No isoprenoid quinone was detected and the DNA G+C content was 37.5–37.7 mol%. The whole-cell fatty acid profile mainly consisted of iso-C15 : 0 and anteiso-C15 : 0. DNA–DNA hybridization of strain C40T with Amphibacillus xylanus JCM 7361T revealed a DNA–DNA relatedness value of 10±3 %. Owing to the differences in phenotypic characteristics and phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, as well as DNA–DNA relatedness data from reported species of the genus Amphibacillus , the isolates merit classification as a novel species in the genus Amphibacillus , for which the name Amphibacillus indicireducens sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is C40T ( = JCM 17250T = NCIMB 14686T). An additional strain of the species is N214. An emended description of the genus Amphibacillus is provided. |
