Abstract

A Gram-negative, rod-shaped, gliding, aerobic bacterium, designated $12157^T$, was isolated from the desert of Xinjiang, China and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. The strain $12157^T$ grew optimally at pH 7.0 and $30^{\circ}C$. MK-7 was the predominant respiratory menaquinone. The DNA G+C content was 42.0 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the isolate was mostly related to members of the genus Pedobacter, with similarities ranging from 90.0% to 93.7%. Phylogenetic evidence and the results of phenotypic and genotypic analyses support the establishment of a novel species, Pedobacter xinjiangensis sp. nov., with strain $12157^T$ (=CCTCC AB $208092^T$=NRRL B-$51338^T$) as the type strain.
