Three strains of a new species of Gram-negative, anaerobic, motile, rod-shaped bacterium were isolated from biofilms in soda lakes in Mongolia and Russia. These strains, designated as B14B, A-7R, and A-7Y, had lamellar stacks and used bacteriochlorophyll a as their main photosynthetic pigment. They grew best at pH 9.0 and 0% NaCl, and could utilize various organic compounds for growth. The genomic analysis showed that they are distinct from other Ectothiorhodospira species and possess a unique nitric oxide reduction pathway.
Several strains of a Gram-negative, anaerobic photoautotrophic, motile, rod-shaped bacterium, designated as B14B, A-7R, and A-7Y were isolated from biofilms of low-mineralized soda lakes in central Mongolia and Russia (southeast Siberia). They had lamellar stacks as photosynthetic structures and bacteriochlorophyll a as the major photosynthetic pigment. The strains were found to grow at 25-35 degrees C, pH 7.5-10.2 (optimum, pH 9.0), and with 0-8% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0%). In the presence of sulfide and bicarbonate, acetate, butyrate, yeast extract, lactate, malate, pyruvate, succinate, and fumarate promoted growth. The DNA G + C content was 62.9-63.0 mol%. While the 16S rRNA gene sequences confirmed that the new strains belonged to the genus Ectothiorhodospira of the Ectothiorhodospiraceae, comparison of the genome nucleotide sequences of strains B14B, A-7R, and A-7Y revealed that the new isolates were remote from all described Ectothiorhodospira species both in dDDH (19.7-38.8%) and in ANI (75.0-89.4%). The new strains are also genetically differentiated by the presence of a nitric oxide reduction pathway that is lacking from all other Ectiothiorhodospiraceae. We propose to assign the isolates to the new species, Ectothiorhodospira lacustris sp. nov., with the type strain B14B(T) (=DSM 116064(T) = KCTC 25542(T) = UQM 41491(T)).
