A Gram-stain-positive, novel actinobacterium, designated strain JL-6T, was isolated from the litter of a bamboo (Sasa borealis) forest in Damyang, Korea. Strain JL-6T had white‐grey, smooth, cylindrical spores that were borne in straight, long spore-chains. The novel strain grew aerobically at 15–28 °C (optimum, 28 °C), pH 4.0–8.0 (optimum, pH 5.5) and with 0–1.5 % (w/v) NaCl. The cell-wall peptidoglycan contained ll-diaminopimelic acid, glutamic acid, alanine and glycine. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9(H6) and MK-9(H8). Whole-cell hydrolysates mainly contained glucose and ribose. Phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylcholine were the diagnostic phospholipids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 72.8 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain JL-6T belonged to the genus Streptomyces with sequence similarities ranging from 97.3 % to 98.3 %. However, DNA–DNA hybridization between JL-6T and the closest related strain, Streptomyces turgidiscabies , ATCC 700248T and other closely related species in the genus Streptomyces showed <50 % relatedness. Based on these observations, strain JL-6T is proposed to represent a novel species of the genus Streptomyces , for which the name Streptomyces graminilatus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is JL-6T ( = KACC 16470T = NBRC 108882T).

A yellow-pigmented bacterial strain, designated LL01T, was isolated from hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH)-contaminated soil at Spolana Neratovice, a former Czech producer of lindane. A neighbour-joining tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain LL01T occupied a distinct phylogenetic position in the Sphingobium cluster, showing highest similarity to Sphingobium rhizovicinum CC-FH12-1T (98.5 %). The DNA G+C content of strain LL01T was 66.1 mol%. The predominant respiratory pigment was ubiquinone Q-10. The polar lipid profile of strain LL01T also corresponded to those reported for other Sphingobium species (phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine, phosphatidyldimethylethanolamine, sphingoglycolipids), supporting its identification as a member of the genus Sphingobium . Spermidine was the major polyamine observed. The results obtained from DNA–DNA hybridization and biochemical and physiological tests clearly distinguished strain LL01T from closely related species of the genus Sphingobium . Therefore, strain LL01T represents a novel species of the genus Sphingobium , for which the name Sphingobium czechense sp. nov. is proposed (type strain LL01T = CCM 7979T = DSM 25410T).

A novel anaerobic, Fe(III)-reducing, hydrogenogenic, carboxydotrophic bacterium, designated strain Ug1T, was isolated from a volcanic acidic hot spring in southern Kyushu Island, Japan. Cells of the isolate were rod-shaped (1.0–3.0 µm long) and motile due to peritrichous flagella. Strain Ug1T grew chemolithoautotrophically on CO (100 % in the gas phase) with reduction of ferric citrate, amorphous iron (III) oxide, 9,10-anthraquinone 2,6-disulfonate, thiosulfate or elemental sulfur. No carboxydotrophic growth occurred with sulfate, sulfite, nitrate or fumarate as electron acceptor. During growth on CO, H2 and CO2 were produced. Growth occurred on molecular hydrogen as an energy source and carbon dioxide as a sole carbon source. Growth was observed on various organic compounds under an N2 atmosphere with the reduction of ferric iron. The temperature range for carboxydotrophic growth was 50–70 °C, with an optimum at 65 °C. The pH25 °C range for growth was 4.6–8.6, with an optimum between 6.0 and 6.5. The doubling time under optimum conditions using CO with ferric citrate was 1.5 h. The DNA G+C content was 42.2 mol%. Analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences demonstrated that this strain belongs to the thermophilic carboxydotrophic bacterial genus Carboxydothermus , with sequence similarities of 94.1–96.6 % to members of this genus. The isolate can be distinguished from other members of the genus Carboxydothermus by its ability to grow with elemental sulfur or thiosulfate coupled to CO oxidation. On the basis of phylogenetic analysis and unique physiological features, the isolate represents a novel species of the genus Carboxydothermus for which the name Carboxydothermus pertinax sp. nov. is proposed; the type strain of the novel species is Ug1T ( = DSM 23698T = NBRC 107576T).
