A new species,Xenorhabdus japonicus, is proposed as the bacterial symbiont ofSteinernema kushidaiisolated from field soil in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan.Xenorhabdus japonicuscould be distinguished phenotypically and genetically from otherXenorhabdusspp. The type strain of the species, SK-1, a Gram-negative, facultative anaerobe and peritrichously flagellated rod, has colonies with primary and secondary forms. The strain can be differentiated from the type strain ofXenorhabdus nematophilusby several characters, including the formation of arginine dehydrolase, phenylalanine deaminase and lysine decarboxylase, the assimilation of inosine andL-proline and acid production from inositol. The major cellular fatty acids are 16:0, cyclo 17:0 and 18:1. The ubiquinone system is Q-8. The G+C content of DNA is 45.9 mol%. The DNA of strain SK-1 has 20 to 58% homology with that of the type strains of otherXenorhabdusspp.
