  abstract = {{B}acterial strains from {Z}n-{P}b mine tailings were isolated by trapping with {A}nthyllis vulneraria, a legume-host suitable for mine substratum phytostabilisation. {S}equence analysis of the 16{S} r{RNA} gene and three housekeeping genes (atp{D}, dna{K} and rec{A}) showed that they were related to those of the genus {A}minobacter. {DNA}-{DNA} relatedness of representative isolates supported the placement of novel strains in {A}minobacter as a new species. {P}henotypic data emphasize their differentiation from the other related species of {A}minobacter and {M}esorhizobium. {A}minobacter isolates exhibited nod{A} sequences tightly related with {M}. loti as the closest nod{A} relative. {B}y contrast, their nod{A} sequences were highly divergent from those of {M}. metallidurans, another species associated with {A}. vulneraria that carries two complete copies of nod{A}. {T}herefore, the novel bacterial strains efficient on {A}. vulneraria represented the first occurrence of legume symbionts in the genus {A}minobacter. {T}hey represent a new species for which the name {A}minobacter anthyllidis sp. nov. is proposed (type strain {STM}4645({T}) = {LMG}26462({T}) = {CFBP}7437({T})).},
