description
Cells are aerobic or facultatively anaerobic, Gram-stainpositive, motile, endospore-forming and rod-shaped (0.4 – 0.6 × 0.8 – 1.2 mm). Ellipsoidal spores are formed at terminal positions in swollen sporangia. After 24 h of growth on LB agar, colonies are circular, greyish, smooth, shiny and up to 5 mm in diameter. Grows at 18 – 42 Ǫ C (optimum 35 Ǫ C), pH 6.5 – 8.0 (optimum pH 7.5) and with 0.0 – 4.0 % (w / v) NaCl (optimum 0.5 %, w / v). In API 50 CH tests, acid is produced from L- arabinose, ribose, D- xylose, fructose, mannose, mannitol, N - acetylgulcosamine, amygdalin, arbutin, aesculin, salicin, celliobiose, maltose, lactose, melibiose, starch and potassium gluconate, but not from glycerol, erythritol, D-arabinose, L- xylose, adonite, xyloside, galactose, glucose, sorbose / sorbitose, rhamnose, dulcitol, inositol, D- sorbitol, methyl a- D- mannopyranoside, methyl a- D- glucopyranoside, sucrose, trehalose, inulin, melezitose, raffinose, glycogen, xylitol, gentiobiose, turanose, D- lyxose, D- tagatose, D-fucose, L- fucose, D- arabitol, L- arabitol, potassium 2 - ketogluconate or potassium 5 - ketogluconate. In API 20 NE tests, utilizes aesculin, ferric citrate, gelatin, 4 - nitrophenyl-b- D-galactopyranoside, L- arabinose, D- mannose, D- mannitol, N - acetylglucosamine, maltose and potassium gluconate, but not potassium nitrate, L- trypophan, D- glucose, L- arginine, urea, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, trisodium citrate or phenylacetic acid. In the API ZYM system, positive for cystine arylamidase and negative for esterase C 4, esterase lipase C 8, lipase C 14, leucine arylamidase, valine arylamidase, trypsin, a- chymotrypsin, acid phosphatase, naphthol-AS-BI-phosphohydrolase, a- galactosidase, b- galactosidase, b-glucuronidase, a- glucosidase, b- glucosidase, N - acetyl-b-glucosaminidase, a- mannosidase and a- fucosidase / fucosidase. Voges-Proskauer test is negative. The major cellular fatty acids are anteiso-C 15: 0, iso-C 16: 0 and anteiso-C 17: 0. The predominant respiratory quinone is MK- 7. The polar lipid profile contains diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and phospholipids. Cells are resistant to lincomycin, rifampin, novobiocin, nalidixic acid, bacitracin and polymyxin B. The type strain, YYJ 7 - 1 T (= ACCC 19965 T = KCTC 33849 T), was isolated from farmland soil in Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province, China (27 Ǫ 53 ′ N 120 Ǫ 36 ′ E). The DNA G + C content of the type strain is 39.4 mol %.
etymology
Paenibacillus shunpengii (shun. peng′ i. i. N. L. gen. n. shunpengii of Shun-peng, to honour Shun-peng Li, a respected Chinese microbiologist, for his great contributions to China’ s environmental microbiology).
