	abstract = {<p>A Gram-stain-positive, rod-shaped, endospore-forming, aerobic bacterium designated SGD-V-25(T) was isolated from Veraval sediment sample, India. Strain SGD-V-25(T) was capable of growing at 25-50 degrees C (optimum 37 degrees C), pH 6-12 (optimum pH 7.0) and with 0-5 \% (w/v) NaCl. The taxonomic position of this strain was deduced using a polyphasic approach and the 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that the isolate belongs to the phylum Firmicutes, forming the cluster with Bacillus badius MTCC 1548(T), with which it shares highest similarity of 99.1 \% with 13 nt differences. Other type strains of the genus Bacillus showed less than 96\% similarity. The cell wall contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid. The polar lipid profile of strain SGD-V-25(T) showed the presence of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phsophoglycolipid and two aminophospholipids. The predominant isoprenoid quinone was MK-7. The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C-15:0, anteiso-C-15:0, anteiso-C-17:0 iso-C-16:0, C-16:1 omega 11c and C-16:0. The genomic DNA G + C content of strain SGD-V-25(T) was 37.6 molok. On the basis of phenotypic characteristics, phylogenetic analysis and DNA-DNA hybridization, strain SGD-V-25(T) could be clearly distinguished from closely related members of the genus Bacillus, and the name Bacillus encimensis sp. nov., is proposed to accommodate this strain. The type strain is SGD-V-25(T) (= NCIM 5513(T)=DSM 28241(T)).</p>},

	abstract = {<p>A novel Gram-stain positive, endospore-forming bacterium, designated SGD-14(T), was isolated from a marine sediment sample in Goa Province, India. Cells of the isolate were found to be strictly aerobic. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain SGD-14(T) showed a similarity of 99.5 \% with Bacillus endophyticus and similarities to other Bacillus type strains were below 96 \%. The whole-cell sugar pattern was found to consist of ribose, xylose and glucose. The predominant menaquinone was identified as MK-7 and the major fatty acids as anteiso-C-15:0, iso-C-15:0, iso-C-16:0, anteiso-C-17:0, C-16:0 and iso-C-14:0. The strain was found to grow optimally at 30 A degrees C and pH 7.0-7.5. DNA G + C content was determined to be 39.6 mol\%. The phospholipid pattern was found to consist of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. DNA-DNA hybridization studies between strain SGD-14(T) and B. endophyticus CIP106778(T) showed that strain SGD-14(T) exhibited \&lt; 70 \% similarity with B. endophyticus CIP106778(T). Differences in phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics between the novel strain and B. endophyticus CIP106778(T) further confirmed that this isolate represents novel species. Phylogenetic analysis showed that strain SGD-14(T) fits in the same clade with B. endophyticus with 100 \% bootstrap values. Strain SGD-14(T) is therefore considered to represent a novel species of the genus Bacillus, for which the name Bacillus filamentosus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Bacillus filamentosus is SGD-14(T) = (=NCIM 5491(T) = DSM 27955(T)).</p>},
