Schumannella

Abstract Schu.man.nel'la. N.L. fem. dim. n. Schumannella , named after Peter Schumann, a German microbiologist, who contributed to the taxonomy of actinobacteria. Aerobic, nonmotile, and non‐spore‐forming actinobacteria that produce single, straight, and rod‐shaped cells that are Gram‐stain‐positive. Chemoorganotrophic. Positive for catalase but negative for oxidase. The characteristic chemotaxonomic markers are menaquinones MK‐11, MK‐10, and MK‐9; 2,4‐diaminobutyric acid as the diamino acid in the peptidoglycan; and anteiso‐C15:0 and iso‐C16:0 as major fatty acids in the cell membrane. The genus is represented by a single species, Schumannella luteola . Belongs to the family Microbacteriaceae and is phylogenetically related to the genera Protaetiibacter , Herbiconiux , and Humibacter . DNA G + C content (mol%) : 71.6 (WGS). Type species : Schumannella luteola An et al. 2008, VL125.
