Correction to: Description of desferrioxamine-producing bacterium Chitinophaga agrisoli sp. nov., isolated from soil

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, yellow-pigmented and non-spore forming rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain BN140078(T), was isolated from farmland soil, Chungbuk, Republic of Korea. It was able to grow aerobically at 10-40 degrees C (optimum 28 degrees C), pH 5.5-7.5 (optimum pH 7.0) and with 0-2.0% (w/v) NaCl concentration (optimum 1.0%) on Reasoner's 2A (R2A) agar medium. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that the strain BN140078(T) had 96.9%, 96.5% and 96.1% 16S rRNA gene similarities with Chitinophaga ginsengihumi KACC 17604(T), Chitinophaga rupis KACC 14521(T) and Chitinophaga japonensis KACC 12057(T), respectively. The predominant respiratory quinone was menaquinone MK-7 and the major fatty acids (>= 5%) were C-16:1 omega 5c, iso-C-15:0, iso-C-17:0 3-OH and Summed Feature 3 (C-16:1 omega 7c and/or C-16:1 omega 6c). The polar lipids were composed of phosphatidylethanolamine, four unidentified amino lipids and six unidentified lipids. The genomic DNA G+C content was 49.5 mol%. The genome of strain BN140078(T) comprises a number of biosynthetic gene clusters for secondary metabolites, in particular those for non-ribosomal peptide products. The polyphasic taxonomic study clearly distinguished this strain from its closest phylogenetic neighbors. Thus, we propose that the BN140078(T) represents a novel species of the genus Chitinophaga, for which the name Chitinophaga agrisoli sp. nov. was proposed. The type strain is BN140078(T) (=KCTC 62555(T) = CCTCC AB 2018162(T)).
