A bacterial isolate, designated strain S37(T), was isolated from the rhizosphere of oil palm ( Elaeis guineensis). Strain S37(T) was found to be Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, motile and rod shaped. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain S37(T) was most closely related to Devosia albogilva IPL15(T) (97.3 %), Devosia chinhatensis IPL18(T) (96.8 %) and Devosia subaequoris HST3-14(T) (96.5 %). The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 63.0 mol%, and dominant cellular fatty acids were summed feature 8 (C-18 : 1 omega 7c and/or C-18 : 1 omega 6c), 11-methyl C-18 : 1 omega 7c and C-16 : 0. The predominant isoprenoid quinone was ubiquinone-10 (Q-10), and the major polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, glycolipid and phospholipids. Based on the polyphasic taxonomic data, it is clear that strain S37(T) represents a novel species of the genus Devosia within the family Hyphomicrobiaceae, for which we propose the name Devosia elaeis sp. nov., with strain S37(T) (=TBRC 5145(T) = LMG 29420(T)) as the type strain.
