Sumario:[EN]Strain CRRU44T was isolated from the stems of Rubus ulmifolius plants growing in Salamanca (Spain). The phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence places this strain within the family Rhizobiaceae showing that it is equidistant to the type species of several genera from this family with similarity values ranging from 91.0 to 96.3 %. Strain CRRU44T formed a divergent lineage which clustered with Endobacterium cereale RZME27T, Neorhizobium galegae HAMBI540T and Pseudorhizobium pelagicum R1-200B4T. The phylogenomic analysis showed that strain CRRU44T was equal to or more distant from the remaining genera of the family Rhizobiaceae than other genera among them. The calculated average nucleotide identity based on blast and average amino acid identity values with respect to the type species of all genera from the family Rhizobiaceae were lower than 78.5 and 76.5 %, respectively, which are the currently cut-off values proposed to differentiate genera within this family. All these results together with those from phenotypic and chemotaxonomic analyses support that strain CRRU44T represents a novel species of a novel genus within the family Rhizobiaceae, for which the name Ferranicluibacter rubi gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed (type strain CRRU44T=CECT 30117T=LMG 31822T).
