Abstract excerpt
A novel Gram-negative, non-sporulating, moderately halophilic, facultatively alkaliphilic, catalase- and oxidase-positive, obligately aerobic bacterium, strain YIM-Y25(T), was isolated from a subterranean brine sample collected from a salt mine in Yunnan, south-west China. Cells were spirilla, motile by monopolar flagella, with meso-diaminopimelic acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan. Growth occurred with 1-15 %...
