UNASSIGNED: A Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, non-pigmented, non-sporulating, rod-shaped bacterial strain WYH 22-41T was isolated from a @entity4613 mine in Yunnan Province, China. The cells were motile with a single polar flagellum. The 16S rRNA gene of strain WYH 22-41T was phylogenetically related to the corresponding gene of Comamonas terrae DSM 27221T (98.4%), Comamonas odontotermitis LMG 23579T (97.6%) and Comamonas aquatica LMG 2370T (97.4%). DNA-DNA hybridizations of strain WYH 22-41T with these three strains showed relatedness of 33.2%, 20.5% and 27.7%, respectively. The DNA G+C content of strain WYH 22-41T was 62.4 mol%. The predominant respiratory @entity3276 was @entity12931 -8. The major polar lipids were @entity6298 , @entity3633 , and @entity3634 . The major @entity1718 of strain WYH 22-41T were C16 : 0, @entity27666 : 0 cyclo, summed feature 3 (C16 : 1   6c and/or C16 : 1   7c) and summed feature 8 (C18 : 1   6c and/or C18 : 1   7c). On the basis of its phenotypic properties, phylogenetic characteristics, DNA-DNA hybridization, as well as whole-cell @entity844 composition, strain WYH 22-41T represents a novel species of the genus Comamonas, for which the name Comamonas phosphati sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is WYH 22-41T (=CGMCC 1.12294T = DSM 26017T).
