Abstract

Melaminivora [Me.la.mi.ni.vo'ra. N.L. neut. n. melaminum melamine; L. v. voro to eat, to devour; N.L. fem. n. Melaminivora melamine eating]. Proteobacteria / Betaproteobacteria / Burkholderiales / Comamonadaceae / Melaminivora Rods 2.0–3.5‐μm long and 0.5–0.9‐μm wide. Motile by a single unipolar flagellum. Gram‐negative. Nonsporulating. Aerobe. Nitrate is reduced to nitrite. Mesophilic, with the ability to grow between 15 and 50°C, pH 6–9.5, and at NaCl concentrations up to 7%. Chemoorganotroph. Catalase‐ and cytochrome c oxidase‐positive. The respiratory quinone is ubiquinone 8. The major fatty acids are summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω7c/iso‐C15:0 2‐OH), C16:0, and C18:1 ω7c. C10:0 3‐OH is also present. Predominant polar lipids are phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, and diphosphatidylglycerol. DNA G + C content (mol%): 69.5–69.6 (HPLC). Type species: Melaminivora alkalimesophila Wang et al. 2014bVP.
