Repositories: Sequences data were deposited at GenBank database under the
accession numbers MN031302 (16S rRNA gene) and JAHOPH000000000 (AS10T full
genome).
, Figure S1. AS10T colonies observed in M600 agar media.
Figure S2. AS10T growth M600 agar medium at different temperatures, ranging from 5 to 45 ºC with 5 ºC
increments and including also 37 and 55 ºC.
Figure S3. AS10T growth in M600 broth medium prepared with artificial seawater (ASW) without NaCl. Different
concentrations of NaCl, ranging from 0 to 15 % NaCl with 1 % NaCl increments, were tested. The horizontal line
represents the starting concentration of 0.5 McFarland. C+ stands for positive control, where AS10T was grown on
the isolation broth medium.
