Abstract

To obtain unrecorded bacterial species in Korea, various marine samples were collected from Jeollanamdo Province, Korea in 2021. After plating the samples on marine agar and marine R2A agar, and incubating aerobically and anaerobically, approximately 1200 bacterial strains were isolated and identified using 16S rRNA gene sequences. A total of 30 strains showed ≥98.7% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with validly published bacterial species but not reported in Korea, indicating that they are unrecorded bacterial species in Korea. The unrecorded bacterial strains belonged to 4 phyla, 7 classes, 13 orders, 19 families, and 22 genera, which were assigned to Azospirllium, Loktanella, and Pseudovibrio of the class Alphaproteobacteria; Grimontia, Halomonas, Marinobacter, Microbulbifer, Photobacterium, Pseudoalteromonas, Pseudidiomarina, Ferrimonas, Shewanella, Simiduia, Thalassotalea, and Vibrio of the class Gammaproteobacteria; Priestia and Enterococcus of the class Bacilli; Persicobacter of the class Cytophagia; Aureivirga of the class Flavobacteriia; Propionigenium and Psychrilyobacter of the class Fusobacteriia; and Tepidibacter of the class Clostridia. The details of the unreported species including Gram reaction, colony and cell morphology, biochemical characteristics, and phylogenetic position are also provided in the description of the strains.
