Abstract

The lineage of Elulimicrobium humile, from freshwater metagenomes.

Phylum Elulimicrobiota

Etymology: [E.lu.li.mi.cro.bi.o'ta] N.L. neut. n. Elulimicrobium, referring to the type genus Elulimicrobium; -ota, ending to denote a phylum; N.L. neut. pl. n. Elulimicrobiota, the Elulimicrobium phylum
Nomenclatural type: Genus Elulimicrobium
Description: The phylum is defined on the basis of comparative genome analysis on the genus Elulimicrobium with respect to currently determined genomes from the closest relatives within the “Patescibacteria” clade. Elulimicrobium is the designated type genus of the phylum.

Genus Elulimicrobium

Etymology: [E.lu.li.mi.cro'bi.um] N.L. fem. n. elula, from Akkadian n. elūlu, and from there to Hebrew n. Elul (אלול), the month of harvest in the Akkadian calendar typically corresponding to the annual period of detection for this group (August-September); N.L. neut. n. microbium, microbe; N.L. neut. n. Elulimicrobium, a microbe from the month of harvest
Nomenclatural type: Species Elulimicrobium humile^Ts
Description: The genus is established on the basis of phylogenetic reconstruction including the type species Elulimicrobium humile and other members of the group “Patescibacteria”. The type species is Elulimicrobium humile
Classification: Bacteria » Elulimicrobiota » Elulimicrobiia » Elulimicrobiales » Elulimicrobiaceae » Elulimicrobium

Species Elulimicrobium humile^Ts

Etymology: [hu.mi'le] L. neut. adj. humile, humble, low
Nomenclatural type: NCBI Assembly: GCA_009919195.1 ^Ts
Description: This species displays a consistently low abundance when detected between the months of July and October, and a geographic range restricted to the tree northernmost lakes on the Chattahoochee River (USA): lakes Lanier, West Point, and Eufaula. According to the genome assembly, WB6_2A_207 is 3.79 Mbp long with 1,298 contigs (N50: 4 kbp) and 34.3% G+C content. It includes 4,108 predicted proteins as well as 90 non-coding RNA loci (87 tRNA, 1 rRNA, and 2 tmRNA). The estimated coding density is 94.1%. Based on genome annotation, this organism is predicted to have sucrose and oxidase activity and the capability of gelatin and arginine dihydrolase activity. The type material is the genome WB6_2A_207, deposited in the NCBI database with Genome Accession RGCK00000000 and BioSample SAMN10223143.
