A Gram-staining-positive, rod-shaped, endospore-forming, aerobic bacterium (FJAT-17212T) was isolated from the rhizosphere soil of a medical plant, Prunella vulgaris (common selfheal), on the Wuyishan mountain of China. Isolate FJAT-17212T grew at 10–50 °C (optimum 30 °C), pH 5–11 (optimum pH 7) and with 0–6  % (w/v) NaCl (optimum 2  %). Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that isolate FJAT-17212T was a member of the genus Bacillus and was most closely related to Bacillus galactosidilyticus DSM 15595T (97.3  %). DNA–DNA relatedness between isolate FJAT-17212T and B. galactosidilyticus DSM 15595T was low (35.2  % ± 2.3). The diagnostic diamino acid of the peptidoglycan of isolate FJAT-17212T was meso-diaminopimelic acid and the predominant isoprenoid quinone was MK-7 (80.8  %). The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0 (35.7  %), anteiso-C15 : 0 (29.8  %), iso-C14 : 0 (9.9  %) and iso-C16 : 0 (9.9  %) and the DNA G+C content was 39.8  mol%.

A novel strain of Gram-staining-positive actinobacterium, designated strain JR-39T, was isolated from the rhizosphere soil of bamboo (Sasa borealis) sampled in Damyang, Korea, and its taxonomic position was investigated by a polyphasic approach. The isolate formed flexuous chains of spores that were cylindrical and smooth-surfaced. Strain JR-39T grew at 4–37 °C (optimum 28 °C). The pH range for growth was pH 5–10 (optimum pH 6–8) and the NaCl range for growth was 0–5 % (w/v) with optimum growth at 1 % NaCl. The cell-wall peptidoglycan contained ll-diaminopimelic acid, glutamic acid, alanine and glycine. Whole-cell hydrolysates mainly contained glucose, mannose, ribose and rhamnose. Predominant menaquinones were MK-9 (H6), MK-9 (H8) and MK-9 (H4). The major cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0, iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C14 : 0. The G+C content of the DNA was 72.3 ± 0.34 mol%. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain JR-39T belonged to the genus Streptomyces, showing the highest sequence similarity to Streptomyces panaciradicis 1MR-8T (99.4 %), Streptomyces capoamus JCM 4734T (98.8 %), Streptomyces galbus DSM 40089T (98.7 %), Streptomyces longwoodensis LMG 20096T (98.7 %), Streptomyces bungoensis NBRC 15711T (98.7 %) and Streptomyces rhizophilus JR-41T (98.7 %).
