In this work, a strain named YPW1 was isolated from the sediments of an artificial mangrove in Yanpu harbor, China. A complete genome of YPW1 was sequenced and assembled. The 16S rRNA gene assigned strain YPW1 into genus Microbulbifer, and the maximum values of average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization of ZHDP1 genome were 90.36 and 68.1, respectively, indicating that YPW1 was a potential new species in genus Microbulbifer. A total of 10 representative genomes from genus Microbulbifer were selected to compare with YPW1. The results showed that the genome of strain YPW1 possessed more carbohydrate-active enzyme genes to transform various recalcitrant polysaccharides into bioavailable monosaccharides than those of the selected genomes. Furthermore, among the selected genomes, YPW1 was the only strain with nitrate, nitrite, and nitric oxide reductases which could appoint nitrous oxide, a powerful greenhouse gas, as the end-product of its denitrification process. Therefore, strain YPW1 was a potential novel member of genus Microbulbifer with special ecological roles in the cycles of carbon and nitrogen in mangrove ecosystems.
