Abstract |
Two Gram-staining-negative, rod-shaped, orange-coloured, catalase positive, oxidase positive, non-motile bacteria designated W13M1AT and W15M10T were isolated from the marine sponges Suberites carnosus and Leucosolenia sp. respectively, sampled from Lough Hyne, Co. Cork, Ireland. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences of these isolates revealed that they are members of the genus Maribacter, in the Flavobacteriaceae family of the phylum Bacteroidetes. The type strain most closely related to strain W13M1AT is M. forsetii DSM 18668T with gene sequence similarity of 96.5%. The closest related type strain to strain W15M10T is M. orientalis DSM 16471T with gene sequence similarity of 98.3%. Phylogenetic inference and phenotypic data combined indicate that strains W13M1AT and W15M10T represent novel species in the genus Maribacter and the names Maribacter vaceletii and Maribacter spongiicola are proposed with W13M1AT (= NCIMB 14724T = DSM 25230T) and W15M10T (= NCIMB 14725T = DSM 25233T), respectively as the type strains. |
