Abstract
The biotechnological potential for agricultural applications in the soil in the thawing process on Whalers Bay, Deception Island, Antarctica was evaluated using a metagenomic approach through high-throughput sequencing. Approximately 22.70% of the sequences were affiliated to the phyla of the Bacteria dominion, followed by 0.26% to the Eukarya. Proteobacteria (Bacteria) and Ascomycota (Fungi) were the most abundant phyla. Thirty-two and thirty-six bacterial and fungal genera associated with agricultural biotechnological applications were observed. Streptomyces and Pythium were the most abundant genera related to the Bacteria and Oomycota, respectively. The main agricultural application associated with bacteria was nitrogen affixation; in contrast for fungi, was associated with phytopathogenic capabilities. The present study showed the need to use metagenomic technology to understand the dynamics and possible metabolic pathways associated with the microbial communities present in the soil sample in the process of thawing recovered from the Antarctic continent, which presented potential application in processes of agro-industrial interest.

Abstract
A rod-shaped, non-motile, Gram-negative bacterium, strain RS28T, was isolated from rice straw used as material for periphyton growth. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain RS28T was affiliated with the genus Mucilaginibacter and had the highest sequence similarity to Mucilaginibacter ginkgonis HMF7856T (96.47 %) and Mucilaginibacter polytrichastri DSM 26907T (96.12 %). Strain RS28T was found to grow at pH 5.5-8.0, 17-40 °C and in the presence of 0-1.5 % (w/v) NaCl. Strain RS28T contained summed feature 3 (comprising C16 : 1 ω7c and/or C16 : 1 ω6c), iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH as the major fatty acids (> 10.0 %). The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, two unidentified phospholipids, two unidentified aminophospholipids, three unidentified aminolipids and one unidentified lipid. The respiratory quinone was menaquinone 7. The genomic DNA G+C content was 44.7 mol%. Strain RS28T possessed six putative secondary metabolite gene clusters involved in the synthesis of resorcinol, NRPS-like, terpene, lassopeptide, T3PKS and arylpolyene. On the basis of the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, and phylogenetic characteristics, strain RS28T represents a novel species of the genus Mucilaginibacter, for which the name Mucilaginibacter straminoryzae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is RS28T (=KCTC 92039T=LMG 32424T).

Abstract
Strains RB4R14T and RT5R15T, two Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped, non-motile bacteria, were isolated from ice and cryoconite of Renlongba glacier, respectively, on the Tibetan Plateau, PR China. The results of phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA genes indicated that strains RB4R14T and RT5R15T belonged to the genus Mucilaginibacter with the highest similarities to Mucilaginibacter rigui WPCB133T (98.78 %) and Mucilaginibacter xinganensis BJC16-A31T (97.64 %), respectively. The genomic DNA G+C contents of strains RB4R14T and RT5R15T were 42.8 and 43.1 mol%, respectively. The digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between strains RB4R14T, RT5R15T and their close relatives were below 31.9 and 17.4 %, respectively. The average nucleotide identity values between the two novel strains and their close relatives were 79.5-82.0 and 77.9-79.3 % respectively, indicating the novelty of the two isolates at a species level. The two novel strains contained MK-7 as the major menaquinone, and summed feature 3 (comprising C16 : 1 ω7c and/or C16 : 1 ω6c), iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C17 : 0-3OH as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipid of the two novel strains were phosphatidylethanolamine. Based on phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic results, we propose two novel species, Mucilaginibacter aurantiaciroseus sp. nov. (RB4R14T=CGMCC 1.11911T=NBRC 114020T) and Mucilaginibacter flavidus sp. nov. (RT5R15T=CGMCC 1.23117T=NBRC 113930T).

Abstract
A bacterial strain, SD-gT, was isolated from a soil sample collected on Dokdo Island, South Korea. Cells were observed to be Gram stain negative and short rod shaped, and colonies to be pink in color. Growth of the isolate was observed at 4-30 °C, pH 6-8, and in the presence of 0-2.0% NaCl. Analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences identified strain SD-gT as a member of the genus Mucilaginibacter in the family Sphingobacteriaceae, with high levels of sequence similarity with Mucilaginibacter terrenus ZH6T (96.9%), Mucilaginibacter lutimaris BR-3T (96.8%), Mucilaginibacter carri PR0008KT (96.8%), Mucilaginibacter gilvus F01003T (96.7%), Mucilaginibacter litoreus BR-18T (96.6%), and Mucilaginibacter terrigena 17JY9-4T (96.5%). The genomic DNA G+C content of strain SD-gT was calculated to be 40.6 mol%. The predominant respiratory quinone of the isolate was found to be MK-7; the main polar lipid was phosphatidylethanolamine; and the major fatty acids were identified as summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω7c/C16:1 ω6c; 29.0%), C15:0 iso (19.1%), C15:0 iso (28.1%), C16:0 (14.9%), and C17:0 iso 3-OH (7.4%). The digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) and average nucleotide identity (ANI) values between strain SD-gT and M. terrenus ZH6T, M. gilvus F01003T, and M. terrigena ranged from 17.7 to 18.4% and 72.1 to 74.0%, respectively. On the basis of its phenotypic properties, genotypic distinctiveness, and chemotaxonomic features, strain SD-gT represents a novel species in the genus Mucilaginibacter, for which the name Mucilaginibacter segetis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SD-gT (= KCTC 82353T = JCM 34284T).

Abstract
Three Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, non-motile and rod-shaped bacterial strains, designated as HME9299T, HMF7410T and HMF7856T, were isolated from freshwater and tree bark collected in Yong-in, Republic of Korea. Strains HME9299T, HMF7410T and HMF7856T exhibited the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities of 97.2, 94.4 and 96.4 % to Mucilaginibacter daejeonensis Jip 10T, Mucilaginibacter terrae CCM 8645T and Mucilaginibacter phyllosphaerae PP-F2F-G21T, respectively. Among themselves, the values were 94.1-95.7 %. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences of the three isolates revealed that they belonged to the genus Mucilaginibacter within the family Sphingobacteriaceae. The predominant fatty acids of three strains were summed feature 3 (comprising C16 : 1 ω7c and/or C16 : 1 ω6c) and iso-C15 : 0. Strain HME9299T contained a relatively large amount of C16 : 1 ω5c. The predominant respiratory quinone was menaquinone-7. The genome sizes of strains HME9299T, HMF7410T and HMF7856T were 4.33, 4.16 and 3.68 Mbp, respectively, and their DNA G+C contents were 41.6, 38.4 and 43.9 mol%, respectively. Based on the results of the phenotypic, genotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic investigation, three novel species, Mucilaginibacter aquatilis sp. nov, Mucilaginibacter arboris sp. nov. and Mucilaginibacter ginkgonis sp. nov., are proposed. The type strains are HME9299T (=KCTC 42122T=DSM 29146T), HMF7410T (=KCTC 62464T=NBRC 113227T) and HMF7856T (=KCTC 72782T=NBRC 114275T), respectively.

Abstract
Two Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped, non-motile, bacterial strains, designated as ZB1P21T and ZT4R22T, were isolated from ice and cryoconite samples collected from Zepu glacier on the Tibetan Plateau, PR China. The phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene showed that the two strains belong to the genus Mucilaginibacter. Strain ZB1P21T showed the highest similarity to Mucilaginibacter rigui WPCB133T (97.35 %), while strain ZT4R22T showed the highest similarity to Mucilaginibacter gilvus F01003T (99.11 %). The average nucleotide identity values between the two novel strains and their closest relatives were 79.42 and 85.72 % respectively. The two novel strains contained MK-7 as the major menaquinone, and summed feature 3 (comprising C16 : 1 ω7c and/or C16 : 1 ω6c), iso-C15:0, iso-C17 : 03-OH and C16 : 1 ω5c as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipid of the two novel strains were phosphatidylethanolamine. Based on these data, we propose two novel species, Mucilaginibacter glaciei sp. nov. (ZB1P21T=CGMCC 1.23981T=NBRC 113932T) and Mucilaginibacter pankratovii sp. nov. (ZT4R22T=CGMCC 1.23487T=NBRC 113931T).

Abstract
A gram-stain negative, aerobic, non-motile and rod-shaped novel bacterial strain, designated MAH-19T, was isolated from bark of Pinus koraiensis. The colonies were observed to be light pink coloured, smooth, circular and 0.3-0.7 mm in diameter when grown on R2A agar for 2 days. Strain MAH-19T was found to be able to grow at 10-35 °C (optimum 28-30 °C), at pH 6.0-8.0 (optimum 7.0) and at 0-0.5% NaCl (optimum 0%). Cell growth occurs on nutrient agar and R2A agar. The strain was found to be positive for both catalase and oxidase tests. Cells are able to hydrolyse aesculin and Tween 20, but not casein, gelatin, starch, L-tyrosine, DNA, L-arginine, urea or Tween 80. According to the 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons, the isolate was identified as a member of the genus Mucilaginibacter and to be closely related to Mucilaginibacter panaciglaebae BXN5-31T (97.4% similarity), Mucilaginibacter antarcticus S14-88T (97.2%) and Mucilaginibacter ximonensis XM-003T (97.1%). In DNA-DNA hybridization tests, the DNA relatedness between strain MAH-19T and its close phylogenetic neighbours was below 45.0%. The novel strain MAH-19T has a draft genome size of 5,335,442 bp (14 contigs), annotated with 4963 protein-coding genes, 44 tRNA and 6 rRNA genes. The genomic DNA G+C content was determined to be 42.7 mol%. The predominant isoprenoid quinone of strain MAH-19T was identified as MK-7. The major fatty acids were identified as C15:0 iso and summed feature 3 (comprising C16:1ω7c and/or C16:1ω6c). The DNA-DNA hybridization results and results of the genotypic analysis, in combination with chemotaxonomic and physiological data, demonstrated that strain MAH-19T represents a novel species within the genus Mucilaginibacter, for which the name Mucilaginibacter corticis sp. nov. is proposed, with MAH-19T (= KACC 19745T = CGMCC1.13657T) as the type strain.
