A novel actinomycete, designated strain NEAU-Z6T, was isolated from eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) root. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that strain NEAU-Z6T belonged to the genus Nonomuraea , with highest sequence similarity to Nonomuraea monospora PT 708T (98.83 %), Nonomuraea rosea GW 12687T (98.55 %) and Nonomuraea rhizophila YIM 67092T (98.02 %). Sequence similarities between strain NEAU-Z6T and other species of the genus Nonomuraea ranged from 97.94 % ( Nonomuraea candida HMC10T) to 96.30 % ( Nonomuraea wenchangensis 210417T). Key morphological, physiological and chemotaxonomic characteristics of strain NEAU-Z6T were congruent with the description of the genus Nonomuraea . The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 64.51 mol%. DNA–DNA relatedness and comparative analysis of physiological, biochemical and chemotaxonomic data allowed genotypic and phenotypic differentiation of strain NEAU-Z6T from closely related species. Thus, strain NEAU-Z6T represents a novel species of the genus Nonomuraea , for which the name Nonomuraea solani sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NEAU-Z6T ( = CGMCC 4.7037T = DSM 45729T).

During the isolation of bacteria from the Agave L. rhizosphere in northeast Mexico, four strains with similar BOX-PCR patterns were collected. The 16S rRNA gene sequences of all four strains were very similar to each other and that of the type strains of Cupriavidus metallidurans CH34T (98.49 % sequence similarity) and Cupriavidus necator N-1T (98.35 %). The genome of strain ASC-9842T was sequenced and compared to those of other Cupriavidus species. ANIb and ANIm values with the most closely related species were lower than 95%, while the in silico DNA–DNA hybridization values were also much lower than 70 %, consistent with the proposal that they represent a novel species. This conclusion was supported by additional phenotypic and chemotaxonomic analyses. Therefore, the name Cupriavidus agavae sp. nov. is proposed with the type strain ASC-9842T (=LMG 26414T=CIP 110327T).

An ivory/yellow, Gram-stain-negative, short-rod-shaped, aerobic bacterial strain, designated JC2948T, was isolated from a soil sample taken from Gwanak Mountain, Republic of Korea. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain JC2948T belongs to the genus Burkholderia . The test strain showed highest sequence similarities to Burkholderia tropica LMG 22274T (97.6 %), Burkholderia acidipaludis NBRC 101816T (97.5 %), Burkholderia tuberum LMG 21444T (97.5 %), Burkholderia sprentiae LMG 27175T (97.4 %), Burkholderia terricola LMG 20594T (97.3 %) and Burkholderia diazotrophica LMG 26031T (97.1 %). Based on average nucleotide identity (ANI) values, the new isolate represents a novel genomic species as it shows less than 90 % ANI values with other closely related species. Also, other phylosiological and biochemical comparisons allowed the phenotypic differentiation of strain JC2948T from other members of the genus Burkholderia . Therefore, we suggest that this strain should be classified as the type strain of a novel species of the genus Burkholderia . The name Burkholderia monticola sp. nov. (type strain, JC2948T = JCM 19904T = KACC 17924T) is proposed.

A Gram-stain-positive actinobacterial strain, designated ANK073T, was isolated from rhizosphere soil sampled at a spinach farming field in Shinan, Republic of Korea. Cells of strain ANK073T were found to be aerobic, non-motile, non-spore-forming rods which could grow at 20–40 °C (optimum, 30 °C), at pH 6.0–10.0 (optimum, pH 6.5–7.5) and at salinities of 0–4 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0 % NaCl). The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain ANK073T belongs to the genus Agromyces with high sequence similarities to Agromyces humatus CD5T (98.8 %), Agromyces tardus SJ-23T (98.5 %) and Agromyces iriomotensis IY07-20T (98.4 %). The phylogenetic analysis indicated that strain ANK073T formed a distinct phyletic line in the genus Agromyces and the results of DNA–DNA relatedness and phylogenomic analysis based on whole genome sequences demonstrated that strain ANK073T could be separated from its closest relatives in the genus Agromyces . The strain contained 2,4-diaminobutylic acid, glycine, d-glutamic acid and d-alanine in the peptidoglycan. The predominant menaquinones were identified as MK-12 and MK-11, and the major fatty acids were anteiso-C17 : 0, anteiso-C15 :  0 and iso-C15:0. The major polar lipids were identified as diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. The G+C content of the genome was determined to be 70.2 mol%. On the basis of its phenotypic and chemotaxonomic properties and the results of phylogenetic and phylogenomic analyses, strain ANK073T is considered to represent a novel species in the genus Agromyces , for which the name Agromyces humi sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is ANK073T (=KACC 18683T=NBRC 111825T).

Deinococcus species are widely studied due to their utility in bioremediation of sites contaminated with radioactive elements. In the present study, we re-evaluated the taxonomic placement of two species of the genus Deinococcus namely D. swuensis DY59T and D. radiopugnans ATCC 19172T based on whole genome analyses. The 16S rRNA gene analysis revealed a 99.58% sequence similarity between this species pair that is above the recommended threshold value for species delineation. These two species also clustered together in both the 16S rRNA gene and core genome based phylogenies depicting their close relatedness. Furthermore, more than 98% of genes were shared between D. swuensi s DY59T and D. radiopugnans ATCC 19172T. Interestingly, D. swuensis DY59T and D. radiopugnans ATCC 19172T shared high genome similarity in different genomic indices. They displayed an average nucleotide identity value of 97.63%, an average amino acid identity value of 97% and a digital DNA–DNA hybridization value equal to 79.50%, all of which are well above the cut-off for species delineation. Altogether, based on these evidences, D. swuensis DY59T and D. radiopugnans ATCC 19172T constitute a single species. Hence, as per the priority of publication, we propose that Deinococcus swuensis Lee et al. 2015 should be reclassified as a later heterotypic synonym of Deinococcus radiopugnans .

Two strains (J3-AN59T and J3-N84) of Gram-stain-negative, aerobic and rod-shaped bacteria were isolated from the roots of fresh rice plants. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity results showed that the similarity between strains J3-AN59T and J3-N84 was 100 %. Both strains were phylogenetically related to members of the genus Rhizobium , and they were most closely related to Rhizobium tarimense ACCC 06128T (97.43 %). Similarities in the sequences of housekeeping genes between strains J3-AN59T and J3-N84 and those of recognized species of the genus Rhizobium were less than 90 %. The polar lipid profiles of both strains were predominantly composed of phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine and an unknown aminophospholipid. The major cellular fatty acids were summed feature 8 (C18 : 1ω7c and/or C18 : 1ω6c) and C16 : 0. The DNA G+C contents of J3-AN59T and J3-N84 were 55.7 and 57.1 mol%, respectively. The DNA–DNA relatedness value between J3-AN59T and J3-N84 was 89 %, and strain J3-AN59T showed 9 % DNA–DNA relatedness to R. tarimense ACCC 06128T, the most closely related strain. Based on this evidence, we found that J3-AN59T and J3-N84 represent a novel species in the genus Rhizobium and we propose the name Rhizobium rhizoryzae sp. nov. The type strain is J3-AN59T ( = ACCC 05916T = KCTC 23652T).

A novel actinomycete, designated strain NEAU-FHS4T, was isolated from the root of black false hellebore (Veratrum nigrum L.). Strain NEAU-FHS4T formed single spores with smooth surfaces on substrate mycelium. The novel strain contained meso-diaminopimelic as amino acid of the peptidoglycan and xylose and glucose as whole-cell sugars. The predominant menaquinones were MK-10(H6) and MK-10(H8). Mycolic acids were not detected. The diagnostic phospholipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol. The predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, C16 : 0, C18 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. Phenotypic and chemotaxonomic analysis showed that the novel isolate had characteristics typical of members of the genus Plantactinospora . 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis also indicated that strain NEAU-FHS4T belonged to the genus Plantactinospora , with highest sequence similarities to Plantactinospora mayteni YIM 61359T (98.88 %) and Plantactinospora endophytica YIM 68255T (98.85 %). The results of DNA–DNA hybridization and physiological and biochemical tests allowed genotypic and phenotypic differentiation of the novel strain from the most closely related strains. Based on morphological, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data, strain NEAU-FHS4T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Plantactinospora , for which the name Plantactinospora veratri sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NEAU-FHS4T ( = CGMCC 4.7143T = DSM 46718T).

Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences of species currently assigned to the genus Bacillus has shown an extensive intrageneric phylogenetic heterogeneity. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of Bacillus schlegelii ATCC 43741T shows only 82.2–85.9 % sequence similarity to type strains of other members of the genus Bacillus and <88.5 % sequence similarity to recognised species of the most closely related genera, Calditerricola (88.4–88.5 %), Planifilum (87.3–87.8 %) and Caldalkalibacillus (87.2−87.9 %). Furthermore, B. schlegelii ATCC 43741T could not be assigned to an existing family by phylogenetic analysis. The predominant menaquinone was MK-7. The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, one unidentified phospholipid and two unidentified glycolipids. The major fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, C16 : 0, iso-C17 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. Both the polar lipid profile and the fatty acid composition clearly distinguished B. schlegelii DSM 2000T from the type species of the genus Bacillus , Bacillus subtilis . Hence, there is no evidence for a clear phenotypic grouping of this organism into the genus Bacillus nor to the genera Calditerricola , Caldalkalibacillus or Planifilum . A proposal is made to transfer Bacillus schlegelii to a novel genus and species, Hydrogenibacillus schlegelii gen. nov., comb. nov., and to emend the species description. The type strain of the type species is DSM 2000T ( = ATCC 43741T = CCUG 26017T = CIP 106933T).

A Gram-positive filamentous bacterial strain that developed large campanulate sporangia at the ends of sporangiophores on substrate mycelium was isolated from bamboo forest soil in Thailand. According to the results of a polyphasic taxonomic study, our isolate had typical characteristics of members of the genus Actinoplanes . The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis also indicated that strain A-T 6646T belonged to the genus Actinoplanes , being most closely related to Actinoplanes liguriensis DSM 43865T (97.61 %) and Actinoplanes octamycinicus NBRC 14524T (97.52 %). The DNA–DNA relatedness values, which differentiate the new strain from the most closely related species, were significantly below 70 %. The cell-wall peptidoglycan contained meso-diaminopimelic acid. The whole-cell sugars contained xylose and arabinose. The predominant menaquinone was MK-9(H4). The diagnostic phospholipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol. The predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0, iso-C15 : 0 and anteiso-C15 : 0. Following an evaluation of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and genotypic studies, the isolate is proposed to represent a novel species to be named Actinoplanes siamensis sp. nov. The type strain is A-T 6646T ( = BCC 46194T = NBRC 109076T).

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped, aerobic bacterial strain, designated HC2T, was isolated from the phycosphere of Haematococcus lacustris NIES 144 culture. Strain HC2T was able to grow at pH 4.5–8.0, at 4–32 °C and in the presence of 0–2 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain HC2T was affiliated to the genus Mucilaginibacter and shared the highest sequence similarity with Mucilaginibacter lappiensis ANJKI2T (98.20 %) and Mucilaginibacter sabulilitoris SMS-12T (98.06 %). Strain HC2T contained summed feature 3 (C16 : 1 ω7c and/or C16 : 1 ω6c) and iso-C15 : 0 as the major fatty acids (>10.0 %). The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, one unidentified aminophospholipid, one unidentified phospholipid, two unidentified aminolipids and four unidentified lipids. The respiratory quinone was menaquinone 7 (MK-7). The genomic DNA G+C content was 42.0 %. On the basis of the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic characteristics, strain HC2T represents a novel species of the genus Mucilaginibacter, for which the name Mucilaginibacter inviolabilis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HC2T (=KCTC 82084T=JCM 34116T).

A novel endophytic actinomycete, designated strain NEAU-TX2-2T, was isolated from moss and characterized using a polyphasic approach. The isolate was found to have morphological characteristics typical of the genus Microbispora . The isolate formed longitudinally paired spores on the tips of short sporophores that branched from aerial hyphae. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence supported the assignment of the novel strain to the genus Microbispora , and strain NEAU-TX2-2T exhibited 99.08 and 98.62 % gene sequence similarities to Microbispora amethystogenes JCM 3021T and Microbispora rosea subsp. rosea JCM 3006T, respectively. However two tree-making algorithms supported the position that strain NEAU-TX2-2T formed a distinct clade with M. rosea subsp. rosea JCM 3006T. A low level of DNA–DNA relatedness allowed the isolate to be differentiated from M. amethystogenes JCM 3021T and M. rosea subsp. rosea JCM 3006T. Moreover, strain NEAU-TX2-2T could also be distinguished from its closest phylogenetic relatives by morphological and physiological characteristics. Therefore, it is proposed that strain NEAU-TX2-2T represents a novel species of the genus Microbispora for which the name Microbispora bryophytorum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NEAU-TX2-2T ( = CGMCC 4.7138T = DSM 46710T).
