| Zusammenfassung: | <jats:p>A novel halophilic archaeon, strain BD-1<jats:sup>T</jats:sup>, was isolated from Xiao-Er-Kule Lake in Xinjiang, China. The taxonomy of strain BD-1<jats:sup>T</jats:sup> was studied by polyphasic methods. According to 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, strain BD-1<jats:sup>T</jats:sup> was phylogenetically related to <jats:italic>Halorubrum trapanicum</jats:italic> (98·4 %), <jats:italic>Halorubrum sodomense</jats:italic> (98·0 %), <jats:italic>Halorubrum distributum</jats:italic> (97·8 %) and <jats:italic>Halorubrum coriense</jats:italic> (97·3 %). Strain BD-1<jats:sup>T</jats:sup> is able to grow at 10 °C and further differs physiologically from the above species in the assimilation of sugars. The G+C content of DNA is 68·0 % (<jats:italic>T</jats:italic> <jats:sub>m</jats:sub>). The DNA–DNA relatedness values to <jats:italic>Hrr. trapanicum</jats:italic> and <jats:italic>Hrr. distributum</jats:italic> are 47 and 24 %, respectively. It is concluded that strain BD-1<jats:sup>T</jats:sup> represents a novel species of the genus <jats:italic>Halorubrum</jats:italic>, for which the name <jats:italic>Halorubrum xinjiangense</jats:italic> sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is BD-1<jats:sup>T</jats:sup> (=AS 1.3527<jats:sup>T</jats:sup>=JCM 12388<jats:sup>T</jats:sup>).</jats:p> |
