Denitratimonas tolerans gen. nov. sp. nov.

Submitted by Rasmussen, Ejnar

Genus Denitratimonas

Etymology
[De.ni.tra.ti.mo'nas] L. pref. de-, away from; N.L. masc. n. nitras, nitrate; L. fem. n. monas, a unit, monad; N.L. fem. n. Denitratimonas, an isolate that reduces nitrate
Nomenclatural type
Species Denitratimonas toleransTs
Description
Han et al., 2016: Cells are Gram-staining-negative, non-spore-forming, slightly curved-rods that are non-motile. Aerobic. The predominant quinone is ubiquinone Q-8. The predominant cellular fatty acids (>10 %) are iso-C15:0, iso-C17:1 ω9c, iso-C11:0 and iso-C11:0 3OH. Polar lipids are phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and unidentified aminophospholipids. The genus is a member of the family Xanthomonadaceae, class Gammaproteobacteria. The type species is Denitratimonas tolerans.

Etymology
[to'le.rans] L. fem. part. adj. tolerans, bearing/tolerating, as the bacterium endures stress conditions
Nomenclatural type
NCBI Assembly: GCA_037203605.1 Ts
Reference Strain
Strain sc|0041710: KACC 17565 (Cat. ) = NCAIM B 025327
Description
Han et al., 2016: Description is as for the genus plus the following. After 3–5 days of incubation on NA at 30 °C, colonies are round, brown-pigmented, 1.4–2.6 mm in diameter with entire margins. Growth occurs at pH 3–12 (optimum, pH 6–7), 10–42 °C (optimum, 30 °C) and 0–12 % NaCl (optimum, 1 %). Catalase-negative and oxidase-positive. Nitrate is reduced. The DNA G+C content of the type strain is 65.6 ± 0.8 mol%.
