Summary: Two new strains of bacteria were isolated from seawater samples collected from the West Pacific Ocean and the East China Sea. Through phylogenetic analysis and physiological studies, these strains were identified as a novel genus and species belonging to the family Roseobacteraceae, and named Thiosulfatihalobacter marinus.

Summary: The newly discovered bacterium Muriiphilus fusiformis HY14T, isolated from the wastewater of a pickle-processing factory, demonstrates versatile growth conditions within temperature and pH ranges, with a requirement for moderate salinity. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences and core genome comparisons revealed its genetic relationship with other genera, leading to proposed taxonomic classification.

Summary: Biological nitrogen fixation is crucial in the marine nitrogen cycle and affects global marine productivity and carbon fluxes. Two strains isolated from coastal sediment in Weihai, China were analyzed for gene annotation, growth conditions, and 16S rRNA gene sequences. It was revealed that these strains contain nitrogen fixation gene clusters. These novel strains represent new taxa of the Marinilabiliaceae family and have been proposed as Plebeiobacterium marinum gen. nov., sp. nov. and Plebeiobacterium sediminum sp. nov.

Summary: A polyphasic taxonomic study was conducted on an actinobacterial strain AN110305(T) isolated from soil in South Korea. The strain belongs to a novel genus and species named Solihabitans fulvus, and displays characteristics such as Gram-stain positivity, aerobic growth, non-motility, rod shape, and formation of pale-yellow colonies.

Summary: In this study, a novel alphaproteobacterium, FT118(T), was successfully isolated and identified, representing the first cultured member of a previously uncultivated order UBA8317 within Alphaproteobacteria. It is a rare species with a ubiquitous distribution across different habitats. Genomic and metatranscriptomic analyses demonstrate that it is metabolically versatile and active in situ, suggesting its potential role in nutrient cycling despite being scarce. This work not only expands the current phylogeny of isolated Alphaproteobacteria but also provides genomic and culture reference to unravel microbial adaptation strategies in mangrove sediments and possible microbe-environment interactions.

Summary: A halophilic and facultatively anaerobic bacterium, YR4-1(T), was isolated from a saline-alkali and sorghum-planting soil sample in Dongying, Shandong Province, China. This bacterium showed growth at a range of temperatures and NaCl concentrations, and possessed genes related to osmotic stress response and diverse metabolic pathways. Phylogenetic analysis revealed its similarity to Aliifodinibius species and its placement within the Balneolaceae family at the genus level.

Summary: Two new bacterial strains, Marseille-P2698(T) and Marseille-P2260(T), were isolated from human stools using the culturomic method. These two strains were fully described using the taxonogenomic approach. Marseille-P2698(T) was identified as a Gram-negative, motile, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped bacterium, while Marseille-P2260(T) was identified as a Gram-positive, motile, spore-forming rod-shaped bacterium.
