Taxonomic Approach

A filamentous actinomycete strain, designated GW9-2T, was isolated from a soil sample collected from the Fildes Peninsula, King George Island, West Antarctica. The strain was identified using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The strain grew slowly on most media tested, producing small amounts of aerial mycelia and no diffusible pigments on most media tested. The strain grew in the presence of 0–12 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 2–4 %), at pH 9.0–11.0 (optimum, pH 9.0) and 10–37 °C (optimum, 28 °C). The isolate contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, no diagnostic sugars and MK-9(H4) as the predominant menaquinone. The major phospholipids were phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylmethylethanolamine. The major fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0, C18 : 1ω9c, iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C17 : 0. DNA–DNA relatedness was 37.6 % with Nocardiopsis lucentensis DSM 44048T, the nearest phylogenetic relative (97.93 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity). On the basis of the results of a polyphasic study, a novel species, Nocardiopsis fildesensis sp. nov., is proposed. The type strain is GW9-2T ( = CGMCC 4.7023T = DSM 45699T = NRRL B-24873T).

A facultatively alkaliphilic actinomycete strain, designated EGI 80088T, was isolated from a saline-alkali soil sample from Xinjiang province, north-west China, and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic characterization. Strain EGI 80088T formed fragmented aerial hyphae and short spore chains, and rod-like spores aggregated at maturity. Whole-cell hydrolysates of the isolate contained ll-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid, and glucosamine, mannose, galactose, glucose and rhamnose as the marker sugars. The major fatty acids identified (>5 %) were anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 0, summed feature 4 (iso-C17 : 1I/anteiso-C17 : 1B), iso-C16 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. The predominant menaquinone was MK-9(H4). The G+C content of the genomic DNA of strain EGI 80088T was 70.6 mol%. EGI 80088T showed the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to its closest phylogenetic neighbour Haloactinopolyspora alba YIM 93246T (98.5 %). The DNA–DNA relatedness value of the strain EGI 80088T and H. alba YIM 93246T was 59.3±5.2 %. On the basis of morphological, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic characteristics and DNA–DNA hybridization data, strain EGI 80088T represents a novel species of the genus Haloactinopolyspora , for which the name Haloactinopolyspora alkaliphila sp. nov. (type strain EGI 80088T = BCRC 16946T = JCM 19128T) is proposed. The description of the genus Haloactinopolyspora has also been emended.

Actinomycete 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).

Genotypic Characteristics

Three novel actinomycete strains, designated as DR6-1T, DR6-2 and DR6-4, isolated from the roots of Dendrobium heterocarpum Lindl in Thailand were studied using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The strains grew at 20–37 °C, at pH 5–10 and with 5 % (w/v) NaCl. They contained meso-diaminopimelic acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan and MK-9(H4) was a major menaquinone. Arabinose and galactose were the major sugars in the cell wall. The predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0 and iso-C15 : 0. The detected polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, hydroxyphosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylglycerol. Strains DR6-1T, DR6-2 and DR6-4 shared 99.9–100 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity and were closely related to Amycolatopsis echigonensis JCM 21831T (98.7-98.8%). The approximate genome size of strain DR6-1T was 9.6 Mb with a G+C content of 69.6 mol%. The ANIb and dDDH values between genomic sequences of strain DR6-1T and Amycolatopsis echigonensis JCM21831T, Amycolatopsis rubida JCM 10871T and Amycolatopsis nivea KCTC 39515T were 90.55, 92.25, 92.60%, and 47.20, 52.10 and 52.50%, respectively. Based on the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and genotypic characteristics, it has been concluded that strains DR6-1T, DR6-2 and DR6-4 represent a novel species of the genus Amycolatopsis for which the name Amycolatopsis dendrobii sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DR6-1T (=JCM 33742T=KCTC 49546T=TISTR 2840T).

A novel actinomycete strain, 7402J-48T, was isolated from an air sample collected from Jeju island, Republic of Korea. Cells were Gram-positive, aerobic, flagellated, short rods. Strain 7402J-48T showed highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (98.6 %) with Angustibacter luteus TT07R-79T, and had relatively low sequence similarities (below 95.1 %) with other members of the family Kineosporiaceae . The cell wall of strain 7402J-48T contained alanine, glutamic acid and 2,6-diaminopimelic acid, suggesting A1γ-type peptidoglycan. The menaquinones were MK-9(H4) and MK-8(H4). The acyl type of the cell-wall muramic acid was acetyl. Diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol mannoside and an unknown lipid were present. The cellular fatty acid profile comprised a large amount of anteiso-C15 : 0, moderate amounts of C16 : 0, summed feature 3 (including C16 : 1ω7c and/or C16 : 1ω6c), C17 : 0, iso-C15 : 0, C16 : 0 N alcohol and C17 : 1ω8c, and small amounts of other fatty acids. The DNA G+C content of strain 7402J-48T was 73 mol%. Based on its phenotypic and genotypic characteristics, strain 7402J-48T ( = KACC 15527T = NBRC 108730T) is proposed as the type strain of a novel species, Angustibacter aerolatus sp. nov. An emended description of the genus Angustibacter is provided.

Actinomycete Strain

An actinomycete, strain D1T, was isolated from a freshwater sediment sample collected from the San Pablo river in the La Risueña community, Santiago de Cuba province, Cuba. The strain was identified as a member of the genus Nocardiopsis by means of a polyphasic taxonomic study. It produced a light yellow non-fragmented substrate mycelium, a white well-developed aerial mycelium and straight to flexuous hyphae. No specific spore chains were observed. Strain D1T contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, no diagnostic sugars, and MK-10(H2), MK-10(H4), MK-10 and MK-10(H6) as predominant menaquinones, but not phosphatidylcholine as diagnostic polar lipid of the genus Nocardiopsis . The predominant fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, 10-methyl-C18 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. Strain D1T showed the highest degree of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Nocardiopsis synnematoformans DSM 44143T (99.8 %), Nocardiopsis dassonvillei subsp. albirubida NBRC 13392T (99.8 %) and Nocardiopsis dassonvillei subsp. dassonvillei DSM 43111T (99.6 %). A genomic OrthoANIu value between D1T and N. dassonvillei subsp. dassonvillei DSM 43111T of 97.63 % and a dDDH value of 78.9 % indicated that strain D1T should be classified in N. dassonvillei . However, phenotypic characteristics distinguished strain D1T from its nearest neighbour taxon. On basis of these results we propose to classify strain D1T (=LMG 30468T=CECT 30033T) as a representative of a novel subspecies of the genus Nocardiopsis , for which the name Nocardiopsis dassonvillei subsp. crassaminis subsp. nov. is proposed. In addition, the genomic distance between N. dassonvillei subsp. albirubida NBRC 13392T and N. dassonvillei subsp. dassonvillei DSM 43111T as determined through OrthoANIu (93.64 %) and dDDH (53.40 %), along with considerable phenotypic and chemotaxonomic differences reported in earlier studies, indicated that the classification of this taxon as Nocardiopsis alborubida Grund and Kroppenstedt 1990 is to be preferred over its classification as N. dassonvillei subsp. albirubida Evtushenko et al. 2000.

A Gram-stain-positive and motile bacterial strain, designated IB182363T, was isolated from surface seawater of the South China Sea. Cells grew at pH 5.0–9.5 (optimum, pH 7.0–8.0), 20–40 °C (optimum, 30 °C) and with 1–8 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 2–4 %). On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain IB182363T was affiliated to the genus Paenibacillus and the closest phylogenetically related species was Paenibacillus ginsengarvi DSM18677T with 96.9 % sequence similarity. The values of whole genome average nucleotide identity analysis and digital DNA–DNA hybridization between the isolate and the closely related type strains were less than 86.3 and 25.6 %, respectively. Chemotaxonomic analysis revealed that strain IB182363T possessed meso-diaminopimelic acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan and contained menaquinone MK-7 as the predominant isoprenoid quinone. The major cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0, C16 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0. The polar lipids comprised phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, one unidentified glycolipid, two unidentified aminolipids, two unidentified phospholipids and four unidentified aminophospholipids. The genomic DNA G+C content was 54.5 mol%. On the basis of the above results, strain IB182363T represents a novel species of the genus Paenibacillus , for which we propose the name Paenibacillus oceani sp. nov. with the type strain IB182363T (=MCCC 1K04630T=JCM 34214T).

A novel actinobacterium, strain A8036T, isolated from soil, was investigated by using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The organism formed extensively branched substrate hyphae that generated spiral chains of spores with irregular surfaces. The cell wall contained meso-diaminopimelic acid (type III) and cell-wall sugars were glucose, madurose, mannose and ribose. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9(H6) and MK-9(H4). The phospholipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylinositol mannosides. The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, C17 : 1 cis9, C16 : 0, C15 : 0 and 10-methyl C17 : 0. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, the closest phylogenetic neighbours of strain A8036T were Actinomadura meyerae DSM 44715T (99.23 % similarity), Actinomadura bangladeshensis DSM 45347T (98.9 %) and Actinomadura chokoriensis DSM 45346T (98.3 %). However, DNA–DNA relatedness and phenotypic data demonstrated that strain A8036T could be clearly distinguished from the type strains of all closely related Actinomadura species. Strain A8036T is therefore considered to represent a novel species of the genus Actinomadura , for which the name Actinomadura geliboluensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is A8036T ( = DSM 45508T = KCTC 19868T).

Enrichment cultures inoculated with hydrothermally influenced nearshore sediment from Papua New Guinea led to the isolation of an arsenic-tolerant, acidophilic, facultatively aerobic bacterial strain designated PNG-AprilT. Cells of this strain were Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, motile and did not form spores. Strain PNG-AprilT grew at temperatures between 4 °C and 40 °C (optimum 30–37 °C), at pH 3.5 to 8.3 (optimum pH 5–6) and in the presence of up to 2.7 % NaCl (optimum 0–1.0 %). Both arsenate and arsenite were tolerated up to concentrations of at least 0.5 mM. Metabolism in strain PNG-AprilT was strictly respiratory. Heterotrophic growth occurred with O2 or nitrate as electron acceptors, and aerobic lithoautotrophic growth was observed with thiosulfate or nitrite as electron donors. The novel isolate was capable of N2-fixation. The respiratory quinones were Q-8 and Q-7. Phylogenetically, strain PNG-AprilT belongs to the genus Burkholderia and shares the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with the type strains of Burkholderia fungorum (99.8 %), Burkholderia phytofirmans (98.8 %), Burkholderia caledonica (98.4 %) and Burkholderia sediminicola (98.4 %). Differences from these related species in several physiological characteristics (lipid composition, carbohydrate utilization, enzyme profiles) and DNA–DNA hybridization suggested the isolate represents a novel species of the genus Burkholderia , for which we propose the name Burkholderia insulsa sp. nov. The type strain is PNG-AprilT ( = DSM 28142T = LMG 28183T).
