The novel strain GMKU 370T was isolated from roots of a Thai jasmine rice plant (Oryza sativa L. ‘KDML 105’) collected from Pathum Thani Rice Research Center, Pathum Thani province, Thailand. A phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain GMKU 370T formed a distinct clade within the genus Actinoallomurus. Strain GMKU 370T contained meso-diaminopimelic acid and lysine in the cell-wall peptidoglycan and galactose and madurose as whole-cell sugars. No mycolic acids were detected. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9(H6) and MK-9(H8). The polar phospholipids consisted of phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol. These chemical properties reveal that strain GMKU 370T belongs to the genus Actinoallomurus. Strain GMKU 370T is distinct from the phylogenetically closely related type strains Actinoallomurus iriomotensis NBRC 103685T and Actinoallomurus coprocola NBRC 103688T (99.20 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to both) in terms of differences in phenotypic characteristics and DNA–DNA relatedness (51 and 17 %, respectively). It is proposed that strain GMKU 370T represents a novel species of the genus Actinoallomurus, for which the name Actinoallomurus oryzae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is GMKU 370T ( = BCC 31373T  = NBRC 105246T).

A novel actinomycete, designated strain RM287T, was isolated from surface-sterilized roots of Samanea saman (Jacq.) Merr., collected from Bangkok, Thailand. The status of the novel strain was determined using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the organism formed a distinct phyletic line within the radiation of the genus Amycolatopsis. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity indicated that strain RM287T was most closely related to Amycolatopsis mediterranei IMSNU 20056T (97.4 %), A. rifamycinica DSM 46095T (97.2 %), A. kentuckyensis NRRL B-24129T (97.2 %), A. pretoriensis DSM 44654T (97 %) and A. australiensis DSM 44671T (97 %). The novel organism was found to have chemical properties typical of members of the genus Amycolatopsis such as meso-diaminopimelic acid as the dignostic diamino acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan and arabinose and galactose as the diagnostic sugars. The major menaquinone was MK-9(H4). The major fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0 iso-C15 : 0, iso 2-OH-C16 : 0 and iso-C17 : 0. The DNA G+C content was 71.7 mol%. Phenotypic data clearly distinguished the novel isolate from its closest relatives. The combined genotypic and phenotypic data indicated that strain RM287T represented a novel species of the genus Amycolatopsis. The proposed name for this organism is Amycolatopsis samaneae sp. nov., with the type strain RM287T ( = TISTR 1919T = BCC 35842T = NBRC 106095T).

A marine actinomycete strain, designated KSW2-15T, was isolated from a dried seaweed sample collected from a sandy beach on the coast of Jeju in the Republic of Korea. The organism produced non-motile, non-endospore-forming, Gram-positive, coccoid cells. The colonies were circular, translucent and yellow in colour with entire margins. meso-Diaminopimelic acid was present as the diamino acid of the peptidoglycan. The acyl type of the muramic acid was acetyl. Mycolic acids were not present. The predominant menaquinone was MK-8(H4). The polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol and diphosphatidylglycerol. The major cellular fatty acids were of the saturated, unsaturated and iso-branched methyl types. The DNA G+C content was 74 mol%. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain KSW2-15T formed a loose association with ‘Candidatus Nostocoida limicola’, within the radiation of the family Intrasporangiaceae of the suborder Micrococcineae. The organism showed the highest levels of sequence similarity with ‘Candidatus Nostocoida limicola’ (96.1 %), Terrabacter tumescens (96.1 %) and Terrabacter terrae (96.0 %). The levels of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between the isolate and members of other genera of the family Intrasporangiaceae were in the range 92.1–95.5 %. On the basis of the polyphasic evidence, the isolate should be classified within a novel genus and species, for which the name Phycicoccus jejuensis gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed.

A Gram-positive, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming bacterium (Gsoil 346T) was isolated from the soil of a ginseng field in South Korea and was characterized in order to determine its taxonomic position. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequences, strain Gsoil 346T was shown to belong to the genus Nocardioides in the family Nocardioidaceae, with the most closely related species being Nocardioides aquiterrae GW-9T (96.6 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity); however, the strain clustered in a distinct branch of the phylogenetic tree with Nocardioides kongjuensis A2-4T (96.2 %), Nocardioides aromaticivorans H-1T (96.1 %), Nocardioides nitrophenolicus NSP41T (96.1 %) and Nocardioides simplex ATCC 15799T (95.9 %). Strain Gsoil 346T was characterized chemotaxonomically and found to have ll-2,6-diaminopimelic acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylglycerol as the major polar lipids, MK-8(H4) as the predominant menaquinone and iso-C16 : 0, C18 : 1 ω9c and C17 : 1 ω8c as the major fatty acids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA of the novel strain was 73.0 mol%. These chemotaxonomic properties supported the placement of strain Gsoil 346T in the genus Nocardioides. The results of physiological and biochemical tests, along with the phylogenetic analysis, allowed strain Gsoil 346T to be differentiated genotypically and phenotypically from recognized species of the genus Nocardioides. Therefore, strain Gsoil 346T represents a novel species, for which the name Nocardioides panacisoli sp. nov. is proposed, with Gsoil 346T (=KCTC 19470T=DSM 21348T) as the type strain.

A novel actinomycete strain, designated KLBMP 1356T, was isolated from the root of halophyte Tamarix chinensis Lour. collected from the coastal area of Jiangsu province, PR China. The isolate was characterized using a polyphasic approach. Comparative analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that strain KLBMP 1356T was phylogenetically related to members of the family Pseudonocardiaceae and formed a distinct monophyletic clade between the genera Amycolatopsis (93.1–94.7 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), Prauserella (93.6–95.1 %) and Saccharomonospora (93.2–94.3 %). The isolate displayed long spore chains containing rod-shaped and smooth-surfaced spores. Strain KLBMP 1356T contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid, and galactose, arabinose and glucose as the whole-cell sugars. The major menaquinone was MK-9(H4) and the fatty acid profile was characterized by the predominance of iso-C16 : 0, C17 : 1ω8c, C17 : 1ω6c and C17 : 0. The polar lipids comprised diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, unknown aminophospholipids and an unknown glycolipid. Mycolic acids were not present. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 67.2 mol%. On the basis of the evidence from this polyphasic study, strain KLBMP 1356T is considered to represent a novel species of a new genus in the family Pseudonocardiaceae, for which the name Tamaricihabitans halophyticus gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of the type species is KLBMP 1356T ( = DSM 45765T = NBRC 109361T).

Two novel actinomycete strains, designated KB2-4T and KB9-2, were isolated from soil samples. Both isolates formed finger-shaped sporangia on short sporangiophores that emerged directly from substrate hyphae. The cell-wall peptidoglycan contained glutamic acid, glycine, alanine and meso-diaminopimelic acid; the whole-cell sugars were galactose, glucose, mannose, rhamnose, ribose and xylose. The diagnostic phospholipid was phosphatidylethanolamine. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9(H8) and MK-9(H6). Mycolic acids were not detected. The predominant cellular fatty acids (>20 %) were iso-C16 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. For both strains, the G+C content of the genomic DNA was about 72 mol%. The morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics of the two strains were typical of members of the genus Dactylosporangium. Phylogenetic analysis using 16S rRNA gene sequences also indicated that these strains should be classified in the genus Dactylosporangium and showed that the closest relative was Dactylosporangium salmoneum NRRL B-16294T (99.1 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity). DNA–DNA relatedness and some physiological and biochemical properties indicated that the isolates could be readily distinguished from their closest phylogenetic relatives. On the basis of these phenotypic and genotypic data, the isolates represent a novel species, for which the name Dactylosporangium tropicum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is strain KB2-4T ( = BCC 34760T  = JCM 15673T).

A Gram-positive, aerobic, actinobacterial strain with rod-shaped spores, designated YIM 63158T, was isolated from the surface-sterilized roots of Artemisia annua L. collected from Yunnan province, south-west China. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain YIM 63158T belonged to the genus Pseudonocardia. The closest neighbours were ‘Pseudonocardia sichuanensis’ KLBMP 1115 (99.9 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), Pseudonocardia adelaidensis EUM 221T (99.1 %) and Pseudonocardia zijingensis DSM 44774T (98.8 %); sequence similarities to other members of the genus Pseudonocardia ranged from 98.6 to 94.4 %. The chemotaxonomic characteristics, such as the cell-wall diaminopimelic acid, whole-cell sugars, fatty acid components and major menaquinones, suggested that the isolate belonged to the genus Pseudonocardia. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 73.3 mol%. On the basis of physiological, biochemical and chemotaxonomic data, including low DNA–DNA relatedness between the isolate and other members of the genus Pseudonocardia, it is proposed that strain YIM 63158T represents a novel species in this genus, with the name Pseudonocardia kunmingensis sp. nov. The type strain is YIM 63158T ( = DSM 45301T  = CCTCC AA 208081T).
