Salinibacillus aidingensis gen. nov., sp. nov. and Salinibacillus kushneri sp. nov., moderately halophilic bacteria isolated from a neutral saline lake in Xin-Jiang, China.

Abstract excerpt

Three Gram-positive, moderately halophilic, heterotrophic bacterial strains were isolated from a neutral saline lake in the Xin-Jiang area of China. The strains, designated 8-2(T), W11-1 and 25-7(T), were motile, spore-forming, aerobic rods and contained meso-diaminopimelic acid in their cell walls. Their DNA G+C contents were 37.4, 37.2 and 39.9 mol%, respectively. The main fatty acids in the cellular membranes...
