Abstract
A polar multitrichous Gram-negative motile rod, EY 3383, originally identif ied as Burkholderia thailandensis, revealed a DNA-DNA reassociation rate of 36.7%, under stringent conditions, with the type strain of B. thailandensi s, despite the 16S rDNA homology value between two type strains being as hi gh as 97.9%. The strain was clearly differentiated from the type strain of B. thailandensis by physiological, biochemical, and nutritional characteris tics, without significant difference in cellular fatty acid and lipid compo sition. Based on the results of 16S rDNA sequence analysis, DNA-DNA hybridi zation and phenotypic characterization, Burkholderia uboniae sp, nov. is he rein proposed. The type strain is NCTC 13147=EY 3383, isolated on 8 Decembe r 1989 from surface soil along the roadside in Ubon Ratchathani, Thailand. Major respiratory quinone is ubiquinone-8(Q(8)). G+C content of DNA is 69.7 1%.
