A novel actinomycete strain, A-T 4600T, which developed cylindrical sporangia containing a longitudinal pair of motile spores forming singly or in bundles on short ramifications of the aerial mycelium, was isolated from soil collected from an evergreen forest in Thailand. The cell-wall peptidoglycan contained meso-diaminopimelic acid. The whole-cell sugars contained ribose, madurose, mannose and glucose. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9(H2). Mycolic acids were not detected. The diagnostic phospholipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylmethylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol mannoside, diphosphatidylglycerol and aminophosphoglycolipid. The predominant cellular fatty acids were unsaturated C17 : 1, C18 : 1, saturated C16 : 0, and C17 : 0. The G+C content of the DNA was 70.8 mol%. Phenotypic and chemotaxonomic analyses showed that the isolate had the typical characteristics of members of the genus Planobispora . Furthermore, 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis also indicated that this strain belonged to the genus Planobispora but as a putative novel species. DNA–DNA relatedness values that differentiate the isolate from previously described members of the genus Planobispora were significantly below 70 %. Following an evaluation of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and genotypic studies, it is proposed that the isolate represents a novel species, Planobispora siamensis sp. nov.; the type strain is A-T 4600T ( = BCC 39469T = NBRC 107568T).

A novel actinomycete strain, designed MW4-36T, was isolated from tropical forest soil in Nakhon Sawan Province, Thailand. Morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics of this strain clearly demonstrated that it belongs to the genus Dactylosporangium . The strain 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 including 3-hydroxy-meso-diaminopimelic acid; arabinose, glucose, rhamnose, ribose and xylose were found as whole-cell sugars. The diagnostic phospholipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol; no phosphatidylcholine was found. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9(H8) and MK-9(H6). Mycolic acids were not detected. The predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 72.9 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences also indicated that the strain should be classified in the genus Dactylosporangium and showed that the closest relative was Dactylosporangium maewongense JCM 15933T (99.4 % similarity). These taxonomic data revealed that strain MW4-36T could be readily distinguished from its phylogenetically closest relative. On the basis of these phenotypic and genotypic data, strain MW4-36T is considered to represent a novel species, for which the name Dactylosporangium siamense sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is MW4-36T ( = BCC 34901T = NBRC 106093T).

During a bioprospection of bacteria with antimicrobial activity, the actinomycete strain A38T was isolated from a sediment sample of the Carpintero river located in the Gran Piedra Mountains, Santiago de Cuba province (Cuba). This strain was identified as a member of the genus Micromonospora by means of a polyphasic taxonomy study. Strain A38T was an aerobic Gram-positive filamentous bacterium that produced single spores in a well-developed vegetative mycelium. An aerial mycelium was absent. The cell wall contained meso-diaminopimelic acid and the whole-cell sugars were glucose, mannose, ribose and xylose. The major cellular fatty acids were isoC15:0, 10 methyl C17:0, anteiso-C17:0 and iso-C17:0. The predominant menaquinones were MK-10(H4) and MK-10(H6). Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that this strain was closely related to Micromonospora tulbaghiae DSM 45142T (99.5 %), Micromonospora citrea DSM 43903T (99.4 %), Micromonospora marina DSM 45555T (99.4 %), Micromonospora maritima DSM 45782T (99.3 %), Micromonospora sediminicola DSM 45794T (99.3 %), Micromonospora aurantiaca DSM 43813T (99.2 %) and Micromonospora chaiyaphumensis DSM 45246T (99.2 %). The results of OrthoANIu analysis showed the highest similarity to Micromonospora chalcea DSM 43026T (96.4 %). However, the 16S rRNA and gyrB gene sequence-based phylogeny and phenotypic characteristics provided support to distinguish strain A38T as a novel species. On the basis of the results presented here, we propose to classify strain A38T (=LMG 30467T=CECT 30034T) as the type strain of the novel species Micromonospora fluminis sp. nov.

Two novel bacterial strains were isolated from tropical rain forest soil from Thailand. Strains A-T 0875T and A-T 1383T stained Gram-positive and were filamentous bacteria that developed cylindrical sporangia containing four oval- to rod-shaped spores at the ends of short sporangiophores on branched aerial mycelium. The cell-wall peptidoglycan contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, glutamic acid and alanine as cell-wall amino acids; whole-cell hydrolysates contained rhamnose, madurose, glucose, galactose and 3-O-methylmannose as whole-cell sugars. The predominant menaquinone was MK-9(H4). Mycolic acids were not detected. The diagnostic phospholipid was phosphatidylethanolamine. The predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0 and 10-methyl-C17 : 0. For both strains, the G+C content of the genomic DNA was 71 mol%. Phenotypic and chemotaxonomic analyses showed that the characteristics of the two isolates were typical of members of the genus Planotetraspora. Furthermore, 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis also indicated that the strains belonged to the genus Planotetraspora but as representatives of two novel species. Following an evaluation of our phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and genotypic studies, two novel species are proposed, Planotetraspora kaengkrachanensis sp. nov. (type strain A-T 0875T=BCC 24832T=NBRC 104272T) and Planotetraspora phitsanulokensis sp. nov. (type strain A-T 1383T=BCC 26045T=NBRC 104273T).

The taxonomic position of a novel aerobic, Gram-positive actinobacteria, designated strain RB5T, was determined using a polyphasic approach. The strain, isolated from the gut of the fungus-farming termite Macrotermes natalensis, showed morphological, physiological and chemotaxonomic properties typical of the genus Streptomyces . Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, the closest phylogenetic neighbour of RB5T was Streptomyces polyrhachis DSM 42102T (98.87 %). DNA–DNA hybridization experiments between strain RB5T and S. polyrhachis DSM 42102T resulted in a value of 27.4 % (26.8 %). The cell wall of strain RB5T contained ll-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic amino acid. Mycolic acids and diagnostic sugars in whole-cell hydrolysates were not detected. The strain produced the following major phospholipids: diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol-mannoside and phosphatidylserine. The menaquinone profile showed hexa- and octahydrogenated menaquinones containing nine isoprene units [MK-9(H6) and MK-9(H8)]. The strain exhibited a fatty acid profile containing the following major fatty acids: 12-methyltridecanoic acid (iso-C14 : 0) 12-methyltetradecanoic acid (anteiso-C15 : 0), 13-methyltetradecanoic acid (iso-C15 : 0) and 14-methylpentadecanoic acid (iso-C16 : 0). Here, we propose a novel species of the genus Streptomyces – Streptomyces smaragdinus with the type strain RB5T (=VKM Ac-2839T=NRRL B65539T).

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 novel actinomycete, strain FMN03T, was isolated from a soil sample collected from Yuga Zapadnaya South-West Forest Park, Moscow, Russia. The isolate had chemical and morphological properties typical of members of the genus Nonomuraea and formed a distinct 16S rRNA gene subclade with the type strains Nonomuraea roseoviolacea subsp. carminata NBRC 15903T and Nonomuraea roseoviolacea subsp. roseoviolacea NBRC 14098T. The organism formed extensively branched substrate and aerial hyphae, which generated spiral chains of spores with smooth surfaces. The cell wall contained meso-diaminopimelic acid and the whole cell sugars were glucose, galactose and trace amounts of madurose, mannose and xylose. The polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, hydroxyphosphatidylethanolamine, four unidentified phospholipids, four unidentified glycolipids and one unidentified lipid. The predominant menaquinone was MK-9(H4). The major fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0 2-OH, C17 : 0 10-methyl, C17 : 1 cis9 and iso-C16 : 0. Analyses of its morphological, physiological and biochemical characteristics, together with DNA–DNA relatedness data, confirmed that strain FMN03T is a representative of a novel species of the genus Nonomuraea , which is distinct from closely related reference strains. Strain FMN03T ( = DSM 45913T = KCTC 29233T) is proposed as the type strain of a novel species, for which the name Nonomuraea muscovyensis sp. nov. is proposed.

A novel actinomycete, strain DS3030T, was isolated from a deep sediment sample, collected from the southern Black Sea coast, Turkey, and was examined using a polyphasic approach. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain DS3030T was shown to belong to the genus Saccharomonospora and to be related most closely to Saccharomonospora marina XMU15T (99.6 % similarity). Sequence similarities with other strains of the genus Saccharomonospora were lower than 97.0 %. The organism had chemical and morphological features typical of the genus Saccharomonospora . The cell wall of the novel strain contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, arabinose and galactose as diagnostic sugars. The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylinositol mannoside. The predominant menaquinone was MK-9(H4). Major fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 2-OH and C16 : 1 cis 9. Phenotypic data clearly distinguished the new isolate from its closest relative, S. marina XMU15T. The combined genotypic and phenotypic data and low DNA–DNA relatedness with its closest related strain reveal that strain DS3030T represents a novel species of the genus, for which the name Saccharomonospora amisosensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DS3030T ( = DSM 45685T = KCTC 29069T = NRRL B-24885T).

Two actinobacterial strains, CPCC 203464T and CPCC 203448, isolated from surface-sterilized stems of medicinal plants were subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. These two aerobic organisms formed pale yellow colonies on tryptic soy agar (TSA). Cells were Gram-stain-positive, non-acid-fast, non-motile, rod- or coccoid-like elements. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strains CPCC 203464T and CPCC 203448 were most closely related to the type strains of the species of the genus Williamsia . Chemotaxonomic properties such as containing meso-diaminopimelic acid in the cell wall, arabinose, galactose and ribose being the whole-cell hydrolysate sugars, phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG), phosphatidylglycerol (PG) and phosphatidylinositol (PI) as the phospholipids, and C16 : 0, 10-methyl C18 : 0, C18 : 1ω9c, C16 : 1ω7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH as major fatty acids supported the affiliation of strains CPCC 203464T and CPCC 203448 to the genus Williamsia . The DNA–DNA hybridization values in combination with differentiating chemotaxonomic and physiological characteristics strongly suggested that these two isolates should be classified as representatives of a novel species of the genus Williamsia . The name Williamsia sterculiae sp. nov. is proposed, with strain CPCC 203464T ( = DSM 45741T = KCTC 29118T) as the type strain.

A novel actinomycete strain, designated TRM 46012T, was isolated from sediment of Aiding Lake in Tulufan Basin (42° 64′ N 89° 26′ E), north-west China. The strain was aerobic and Gram-staining-positive with an optimum NaCl concentration for growth of 0–5 % (w/v). The isolate had sparse aerial mycelium and produced bud-shaped spores at the end of the aerial mycelium on ISP medium 4. The isolate contained ll-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid and ribose as the major whole-cell sugar. The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol mannoside, one unidentified phospholipid and three unidentified glycolipids. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9(H6), MK-9(H8) and MK-9(H4). The major fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0 and anteiso-C15 : 0. The G+C content of the DNA was 74.4 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis showed that strain TRM 46012T had 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 95.7 % with the most closely related species with a validly published name, Streptomyces cheonanensis , and it could be distinguished from all species in the genus Streptomyces by using the data from this polyphasic taxonomic study. On the basis of these data, strain TRM 46012T should be designated as a representative of a novel species of the genus Streptomyces , for which the name Streptomyces aidingensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is TRM 46012T ( = CGMCC 4.5739T = NBRC 108211T).

A Gram-staining-positive, filamentous bacterium, which developed large globose sporangia at the ends of long sporangiophores on aerial mycelium, was isolated from dry soil collected in a deciduous forest in Thailand. The cell-wall peptidoglycan of the novel bacterium, which was designated strain A-T 1846T, contained meso-diaminopimelic acid and the whole-cell sugars comprised rhamnose, ribose, mannose, glucose and galactose. The predominant menaquinone was MK-9(H4). Mycolic acids were not detected. The identified phospholipids were phosphatidylmethylethanolamine, phosphatidylethanolamine, hydroxyphosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol. The predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 2-OH and C16 : 0 10-methyl. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 72 mol%. The phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics of the novel strain resembled those of established members of the genus Kutzneria . Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences also indicated that this strain belonged to the genus Kutzneria but as a representative of a putative novel species. In hybridization experiments, the DNA–DNA relatedness values recorded between the novel strain and established members of the genus Kutzneria all fell well below 70 %. Based on the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and genotypic evidence and the results of the DNA–DNA hybridizations, strain A-T 1846T represents a novel species in the genus Kutzneria , for which the name Kutzneria buriramensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is A-T 1846T ( = BCC 29373T  = NBRC 107931T). An emended description of the genus Kutzneria is provided.
