Actinomycete Strain

A Gram-stain-positive, aerobic actinomycete, strain YIM 60513T, was isolated from the stem of Gloriosa superba L. collected from tropical rainforest at Xishuangbanna, Yunnan Province, south-west China. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain YIM 60513T belonged to the genus Saccharopolyspora and was closely related to Saccharopolyspora gregorii NCIB 12823T (99.1 % similarity) and Saccharopolyspora cebuensis SPE 10-1T (97.3 % similarity). Data for the predominant quinone [MK-9(H4)], major fatty acids (iso-C16 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0 and C17 : 1 cis9) and G+C content of the genomic DNA (71.6 mol%) were similar to those for members of the genus Saccharopolyspora. The level of DNA–DNA relatedness between strain YIM 60513T and S. gregorii NCIB 12823T was 43 %. The combination of phylogenetic analysis, phenotypic differences, chemotaxonomic characteristics and DNA–DNA hybridization data supported the view that strain YIM 60513T should be distinguished from S. gregorii NCIB 12823T and S. cebuensis SPE 10-1T. Strain YIM 60513T therefore represents a novel species of the genus Saccharopolyspora, for which the name Saccharopolyspora gloriosae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YIM 60513T (=KCTC 19243T =CCTCC AA 207006T).

A Gram-staining-positive, white-coloured, aerobic, non-motile, catalase-positive and oxidase-negative, endophytic actinobacterium, designated strain EGI 6500322T, was isolated from the surface-sterilized root of the halophyte Salsola affinis C. A. Mey collected from Urumqi, Xinjiang province, north-west China. Growth occurred at 5–35 °C (optimum 25–30 °C), at pH 5–10 (optimum pH 7–8) and with 0–13 % NaCl (w/v) (optimum 0–5 %). The predominant menaquinone was MK-9 (93.1 %). The major cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C15:0 (49.5 %) and iso-C15:0 (15.1 %). The cell-wall peptidoglycan contained lysine, alanine and glutamic acid. The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, two unknown phospholipids and one unknown glycolipid. The DNA G+C content of strain EGI 6500322T was 62.0 mol%. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, the nearest phylogenetic neighbours of strain EGI 6500322T were identified as Arthrobacter ardleyensis DSM 17432T (98.38 %) and Arthrobacter bergerei DSM 16367T (98.37 %). The DNA–DNA relatedness between strain EGI 6500322T and Arthrobacter ardleyensis DSM 17432T and Arthrobacter bergerei DSM 16367T was 53.4 ± 4.1 % and 30.5 ± 1.7 %, respectively. On the basis of the phylogenetic analysis, chemotaxonomic data, physiological characteristics and DNA–DNA hybridization data, strain EGI 6500322T should represent a novel species of the genus Arthrobacter, for which the name Arthrobacter endophyticus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is EGI 6500322T ( = KCTC 29490T = JCM 30091T).

Gene Sequence Analysis

Several strains isolated from Cytisus villosus nodules have been characterized based on their diverse genetic, phenotypic and symbiotic characteristics. According to 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, the isolates formed a group that was closely related to Bradyrhizobium canariense BTA-1T with 99.4 % similarity. Analysis of three housekeeping genes, recA, atpD and glnII, suggested that the C. villosus strains represent a novel Bradyrhizobium species most closely related to B. canariense BTA-1T with similarities of 94.2, 96.7 and 94.5 %, respectively. All these differences were congruent with DNA–DNA hybridization analysis, which revealed 31 % relatedness between a representative strain (CTAW11T) isolated from C. villosus nodules and B. canariense BTA-1T. Phenotypic differences among the strains isolated from C. villosus and B. canariense were based on assimilation of carbon and nitrogen sources. The nodC and nifH genes of strain CTAW11T were phylogenetically related to those of strains belonging to bv. genistearum and divergent from those of bv. glycinearum and, accordingly, they do not nodulate soybean. Based on the genotypic and phenotypic data obtained in this study, our strains should be classified as representatives of a novel species for which the name Bradyrhizobium cytisi sp. nov. is proposed; the type strain is CTAW11T ( = LMG 25866T = CECT 7749T).

A bacterium designated strain Liujia-146T was isolated in the Tainan area of southern Taiwan from root nodules of the aquatic legume Neptunia oleracea. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain Liujia-146T was highly similar to Labrys monachus VKM B-1479T (97.8 %) and Labrys methylaminiphilus JLW10T (95.5 %) and belonged to the order Rhizobiales in the Alphaproteobacteria. On the basis of phylogenetic analysis, DNA–DNA hybridization data, physiological and biochemical characteristics and fatty acid compositions, the organism was shown to belong to the genus Labrys whilst representing a novel species within this genus. We propose to classify strain Liujia-146T (=BCRC 17578T=LMG 23578T) as the type strain of Labrys neptuniae sp. nov.

A novel Gram-stain-positive, coccoid actinobacterium, designated strain Sco-D01T, was isolated from volcanic ash collected from Oreum (a parasitic volcanic cone) on Jeju Island, Republic of Korea. Cells were aerobic, oxidase-negative and catalase-positive. Colonies were vivid yellow, circular, smooth and convex. The diagnostic diamino acid in the cell wall was ll-diaminopimelic acid. The predominant menaquinone was MK-8(H4). The polar lipids were phosphatidylinositol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine and an unknown phospholipid. The fatty acid profile was represented by large amounts of saturated, unsaturated, 10-methyl and hydroxyl components. The DNA G+C content of strain Sco-D01T was 72.0 mol%. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain Sco-D01T belonged to the family Nocardioidaceae and formed a distinct sublineage within the radiation of the genus Marmoricola. The level of DNA–DNA relatedness between strain Sco-D01T and its closest phylogenetic relative, Marmoricola aurantiacus DSM 12652T, was 30.2 % (35.4 % in duplicate measurements). On the basis of phenotypic and DNA–DNA hybridization data, strain Sco-D01T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Marmoricola, for which the name Marmoricola scoriae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Sco-D01T (=KCTC 19597T=DSM 22127T).

An actinomycete strain, DMKUA 205T, was isolated from a soil sample collected from the Sakaerat Biosphere Reserve in Nakhonratchasima Province, Thailand. The novel strain produced short chains of non-motile spores on the tips of long sporophores branching from the vegetative hyphae. The morphological and chemotaxonomic properties of this new isolate corresponded to those of members of the genus Herbidospora. Furthermore, 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that the strain was closely related to members of the genus Herbidospora. Phenotypic properties and DNA–DNA relatedness values differentiated the new strain from its closest phylogenetic relatives Herbidospora yilanensis 0351M-12T (35–54 % DNA–DNA relatedness) and Herbidospora daliensis 0385M-1T (58–65 % relatedness). On the basis of phenotypic, genotypic and phylogenetic data, strain DMKUA 205T could be clearly distinguished from the type strains of H. yilanensis and H. daliensis. Therefore, strain DMKUA 205T represents a novel species, for which the name Herbidospora sakaeratensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is strain DMKUA 205T ( = BCC 11662T = NBRC 102641T). In addition, the DNA–DNA hybridization results from this study revealed that Streptosporangium claviforme is a later synonym of Herbidospora cretacea.

An actinomycete, strain I06-2230T, was isolated from rhizosphere soil of the plant Cephalotaxus fortunei, collected from Yunnan province, south China. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the isolate belongs to the genus Actinopolymorpha. Cells grew on agar surfaces, with no penetration even after prolonged cultivation. Aerial hyphae were absent. Cells were irregularly shaped and remained attached as chains or aggregates. Chemotaxonomic data, which showed ll-diaminopimelic acid in the cell wall, glucose as the whole-cell sugar, type PI phospholipids and MK-9(H4) as the predominant menaquinone, supported the affiliation of strain I06-2230T to the genus Actinopolymorpha. The major fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 and iso-C16 : 1 H. The genomic DNA G+C content was 69.3 mol%. DNA–DNA hybridization data, in combination with chemotaxonomic, physiological and biochemical data, demonstrated that strain I06-2230T should be classified as representing a novel species of the genus Actinopolymorpha. The name Actinopolymorpha cephalotaxi sp. nov. is proposed, with strain I06-2230T (=DSM 45117T=CCM 7466T=KCTC 19293T) as the type strain.

An actinomycete, strain RI109-Li102T, was isolated from a lichen sample obtained from Rishiri Island in Japan. Cells of strain RI109-Li102T were Gram-positive, aerobic and non-motile and formed bud-like spore chains. The isolate grew with 0–3 % (w/v) NaCl, at pH 5–9 and at 10–30 °C (optimum 30 °C). The whole-cell hydrolysate contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, arabinose and galactose. The predominant menaquinone was MK-8(H4) and the diagnostic phospholipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol and diphosphatidylglycerol. The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0 and iso-C16 : 1 H. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain RI109-Li102T was most closely related to Actinomycetospora corticicola 014-5T (99.0 % rRNA gene sequence similarity) and Actinomycetospora chiangmaiensis YIM 0006T (98.4 %). However, DNA–DNA hybridization assays, as well as physiological and biochemical analyses, showed that strain RI109-Li102T could be differentiated from its closest phylogenetic relatives. It is proposed that strain RI109-Li102T ( = NBRC 106356T  = KCTC 19782T) be classified as the type strain of a novel species, with the name Actinomycetospora rishiriensis sp. nov.

A novel actinomycete, strain N3-7T, was isolated from a natural cave in Jeju, Republic of Korea, using a dilution method and was subjected to characterization using polyphasic taxonomy. A 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that the organism belonged to the phylogenetic cluster of the genus Actinocorallia and was most closely related to Actinocorallia glomerata and Actinocorallia longicatena (97.6 and 97.5 % similarity, respectively). The main chemotaxonomic properties of strain N3-7T, such as the principal amino acid of the peptidoglycan, the predominant menaquinone and the polar lipid profile, supported classification in the genus Actinocorallia. The organism was readily differentiated from Actinocorallia species with validly published names on the basis of a broad range of phenotypic properties. Thus the isolate represents a novel species of the genus Actinocorallia, for which the name Actinocorallia cavernae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is strain N3-7T (=JCM 13278T=NRRL B-24429T).

An ivory-coloured bacterium, designated strain 5YN7-3T, was isolated from a wetland, Yongneup, Korea. Cells of the strain were aerobic, Gram-stain-negative, non-motile and short rods. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis demonstrated that strain 5YN7-3T belongs to the order Rhizobiales of the class Alphaproteobacteria and is closely related to Kaistia soli 5YN9-8T (97.8 %), Kaistia granuli Ko04T (97.6 %) and Kaistia adipata Chj404T (97.4 %). Strain 5YN7-3T showed DNA–DNA hybridization values of 28, 22 and 35 % with K. granuli Ko04T, K. soli 5YN9-8T and K. adipata Chj404T, respectively. The major fatty acids were C18 : 1 ω7c (51.2 %), C19 : 0 cyclo ω8c (25.0 %), C18 : 0 (12.9 %) and C16 : 0 (10.8 %) (>10 % of total fatty acids). Ubiquinone-10 was the major isoprenoid quinone and the DNA G+C content was 66.5 mol%. The phenotypic characteristics in combination with 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis and DNA–DNA hybridization data clearly define strain 5YN7-3T as a novel species of the genus Kaistia, for which the name Kaistia terrae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 5YN7-3T (=KACC 12910T =DSM 21341T).
