A Gram-negative, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming organism, strain MSSRF26T, was isolated from mangrove-associated wild rice in India. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities, strain MSSRF26T was shown to belong to the Alphaproteobacteria, most closely related to Altererythrobacter luteolus and Altererythrobacter epoxidivorans (96.1 and 95.9 % similarity to the respective type strains).
