Nocardioides limicola sp. nov., an alkaliphilic alkane degrading bacterium isolated from oilfield alkali-saline soil
A Gram-stain-positive, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming, alkane degrading bacterium, designated DJM-14T, was isolated from oilfield alkali-saline soil in Heilongjiang, Northeast China. On the basis of 16 S rRNA gene sequencing, strain DJM-14T was shown to belong to the genus Nocardioides, and related most closely to Nocardioides terrigena KCTC 19,217T (95.53% 16 S rRNA gene sequence similarity). Strain DJM-14T was observed to grow at 25–35 °C, pH 7.0–11.0, in the presence of 0–6.0% (w/v) NaCl. The predominant respiratory quinone was MK-8 (H4) and LL-diaminopimelic acid was the diagnostic diamino acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan. The major fatty acids were identified as iso-C16:0 and C18:1 ω9c. It contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol as the polar lipids. The genome (3,722,608 bp), composed of 24 contigs, had a G + C content of 69.6 mol%. Out of the 3667 predicted genes, 3618 were protein-coding genes, and 49 were ncRNAs. Digital DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH) estimation and average nucleotide identity (ANI) of strain DJM-14T against genomes of the type strains of related species in the same family ranged between 18.7% and 20.0%; 68.8% and 73.6%, respectively. According to phenotypic, genotypic and phylogenetic data, strain DJM-14T represents a novel species in the genus Nocardioides, for which the name Nocardioides limicola sp. nov. is proposed and the type strain is DJM-14T (= CGMCC 4.7593T, =JCM 33,692T). In addition, novel strains were able to grow with n-alkane (C24-C36) as the sole carbon source. Multiple copies of alkane 1-monooxygenase (alkB) gene, as well as alcohol dehydrogenase gene and aldehyde dehydrogenase gene involved in the alkane assimilation were annotated in the genome of type strain DJM-14T.
