초록

Two novel strains were isolated from wetland soils in Goyang, Republic of Korea. The two Gram-stain-positive, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacterial-type strains were designated MW4T and MW9T. Phylogenomic analysis based on whole-genome sequences suggested that both strains belonged to the genus Cellulomonas. The cells of strain MW4T were non-motile and grew at 20–40°C (optimum, 35°C), at pH 6.0–10.0 (optimum, pH 8.0) and in the presence of 0–1.0% NaCl (optimum, 0%). The cells of strain MW9T were non-motile and grew at 20–40°C (optimum, 35°C), at pH 5.0–9.0 (optimum, pH 8.0) and in the presence of 0–1.0% NaCl (optimum, 0%). The average nucleotide identity (77.1–88.1%) and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values (21.0–34.8%) between the two novel strains and with their closely related strains fell within the range for the genus Cel-lulomonas. The novel strains MW4T and MW9T and reference strains possessed alkane synthesis gene clusters (oleA, oleB, oleC and oleD). Phylogenomic, phylogenetic, average nucleotide identity, digital DNA–DNA hybridization, physiological and biochemical data indicated that the novel strains were distinct from other members of the family Cellulomonadaceae. We propose the names Cellulomonas alba sp. nov. (type strain MW4T=KACC 23260T=TBRC 17645T) and Cellulomons edaphi sp. nov. (type strain MW9T=KACC 23261T=TBRC 17646T) for the two strains. © 2024 The Authors.
