    Abstract: A Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterial strain named PB-CS01 
  which is bioluminescence-positive was isolated from contaminated commercial 
  pork that probably had been exposed to seafood. Optimal growth of strain PB-CS01 
  requires the presence of 3.0% (w/v) NaCl and a temperature of 20°C. Phylogenetic 
  analysis based on <I>16S rRNA</I> gene sequences of strain PB-CS01 and other 
  <I>Photobacterium</I> species showed that the novel isolate belongs to the genus 
  <I>Photobacterium</I>. Sequence similarity analysis between PB-CS01 and other 
  species indicates that the closest relatives of strain PB-CS01 are<I> Photobacterium 
  phosphoreum</I> ATCC 11040 (99.9%), <I>Photobacterium kishitanii </I>pjapo.1.1 
  (99.8%) and <I>Photobacterium iliopiscarium</I> ATCC 51760 (99.5%). The most 
  abundant fatty acids were summed feature 3 (50.77%; C<SUB>16:1</SUB>&#969;7c 
  and/or C<SUB>16:1</SUB>&#969;6c) and C<SUB>16:0</SUB> (15%). The fatty acid 
  profile is similar to that of the genus <I>Photobacterium</I> but this report 
  is the first to describe C<SUB>16:1</SUB>&#969;6c as one of the compositions 
  of summed feature 3 of the genus <I>Photobacterium</I>. The G+C content of the 
  genomic DNA of strain PB-CS01 was 44.8 mol%. Overall, strain PB-CS01 is a novel 
  <I>Photobacterium</I> species.
