Camelliibacillus cellulosilyticus gen. nov., sp. nov., a cellulose-degrading bacterium isolated from tea.

A Gram-stain-positive, oxidase- and catalase-positive, endospore-forming, aerobic, non-motile and rod-shaped bacterium (THG-YT1T ) was isolated from green tea. Growth occurred at 10-40 °C (optimum, 25-30 °C), at pH 6-8 (optimum, 7) and at 0-2 % NaCl (optimum, 0 %). Based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, phylogenetic analyses showed that strain THG-YT1T formed a distinct lineage with respect to closely related genera in the family Bacillaceae. Strain THG-YT1T was most closely related to the genera within the families Pullulanibacillus, Scopulibacillus, Tuberibacillus and Caenibacillu, with levels of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to the type species of members of these genera of less than 95.0 %. The menaquinone was MK-7. The polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, two unidentified aminophospholipids, two unidentified aminolipids and two unidentified glycolipids. The major fatty acids of strain THG-YT1T were C18 : 3ω7c and anteiso-C17 : 0. The cell-wall peptidoglycan type was A1γ with meso-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid plus alanine and glutamic acid. The cell-wall sugar was glucose. The DNA G+C content of strain THG-YT1T was determined to be 53.5 mol%. Based on the data presented here, strain THG-YT1T represents a novel species of a new genus of the family Bacillaceae, for which the name Camelliibacillus cellulosilyticus gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Camelliibacillus cellulosilyticus THG-YT1T (=KACC 19471T =CGMCC 1.16306T ).
