The taxonomic position of a soil isolate, strain Z6T, was established using a polyphasic approach. The organism showed a range of chemical and morphological properties consistent with its classification in the genus Lechevalieria. An almost complete 16S rRNA gene sequence determined for the strain was aligned with corresponding sequences of representatives of the genus Lechevalieria and related taxa using three tree-making algorithms. The organism formed a distinct phyletic line within the evolutionary radiation occupied by the genus Lechevalieria and was more closely related to the type strain of Lechevalieria aerocolonigenes than to that of Lechevalieria flava. Strain Z6T could be distinguished from both these strains using DNA–DNA relatedness data and by a combination of phenotypic properties. The combined genotypic and phenotypic data show that strain Z6T should be assigned to the genus Lechevalieria as a representative of a novel species. The name proposed for this new taxon is Lechevalieria fradiae sp. nov. The type strain is Z6T (=CGMCC 4.3506T=JCM 14205T).

The taxonomic position of a soil isolate, strain 276T, was established using a polyphasic approach. The organism showed a range of chemical and morphological properties consistent with its classification in the genus Nocardia. An almost complete 16S rRNA gene sequence determined for the strain was aligned with corresponding sequences of representatives of the genus Nocardia and related taxa using three tree-making algorithms. The organism formed a distinct phyletic line within the evolutionary radiation occupied by the genus Nocardia and was most closely related to the type strain of Nocardia abscessus. However, the two strains shared a low DNA–DNA relatedness value and were readily distinguished using a combination of phenotypic properties. The combined genotypic and phenotypic data show that strain 276T should be assigned to the genus Nocardia as a novel species. The name proposed for this new taxon is Nocardia xishanensis sp. nov. The type strain is 276T (=CGMCC 4.1860T=JCM 12160T).

Ultramafic Soil

The taxonomic position of an actinomycete isolated from a hypermagnesian ultramafic soil was examined using a polyphasic approach. The strain, designated SBHR OA6T, was shown to have chemical and morphological properties typical of members of the genus Nocardia. The organism was most closely associated with Nocardia asteroides using 16S rRNA gene sequence data. It showed a distinctive set of phenotypic properties that distinguished it from representatives of all species with validly published names classified in the genus Nocardia. The combined genotypic and phenotypic data show that strain SBHR OA6T (=DSM 44717T=NCIMB 13955T) merits description as the type strain of a novel Nocardia species, Nocardia neocaledoniensis sp. nov.

Bacterium Strain

A Gram-positive, aerobic bacterium, strain SA6T, was isolated from marine sediment taken at a depth of 20 cm on the seashore of Lianyungang, Jiangsu Province, China. Strain SA6T contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, no diagnostic sugars, type PIII phospholipids, and MK-10(H2) and MK-10(H4) as the predominant menaquinones. The organism showed a range of chemical and morphological properties consistent with its classification in the genus Nocardiopsis. The almost-complete 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain SA6T was aligned with corresponding sequences of representatives of the genus Nocardiopsis and related taxa by using two tree-making algorithms. Strain SA6T formed a distinct phyletic line within the evolutionary radiation occupied by the genus Nocardiopsis and was related most closely to the type strain of Nocardiopsis lucentensis. Strain SA6T could be distinguished from its nearest phylogenetic relatives in the genus Nocardiopsis based on DNA–DNA relatedness data and a combination of phenotypic properties. Strain SA6T should therefore be assigned to the genus Nocardiopsis as a representative of a novel species, for which the name Nocardiopsis flavescens sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SA6T ( = CGMCC 4.5723T  = JCM 17424T).

The taxonomic status of an actinomycete isolated from sediment collected from the Mariana Trench was established using a combination of genotypic and phenotypic data. Isolate MT8T had chemotaxonomic and morphological properties consistent with its classification in the genus Williamsia, and formed a distinct phyletic line in the 16S rRNA gene tree together with the type strain of Williamsia muralis. The isolate was readily distinguished from the latter, and from representatives of other Williamsia species, using DNA–DNA relatedness and phenotypic criteria. Predominant cellular fatty acids were oleic, palmitic and tuberculostearic acids and a hexadecenoic acid. The DNA G+C content was 65.2 mol%. It is apparent that the isolate belongs to a novel species of Williamsia. Strain MT8T (=DSM 44944T=NCIMB 14085T) was thus considered to be the type strain of a novel species in the genus Williamsia, for which the name Williamsia marianensis sp. nov. is proposed.

Groin Abscess

A coryneform strain, 06-1773OT (=WAL 19168T), derived from a groin abscess sample was characterized using phenotypic and molecular taxonomic methods. Comparative analyses revealed more than 3 % divergence of the 16S rRNA gene sequence and about 10 % divergence of the partial rpoB gene sequence from the type strain of Corynebacterium glucuronolyticum. The strain could also be differentiated from C. glucuronolyticum by a set of phenotypic properties. A DNA–DNA relatedness study between strain WAL 19168T and C. glucuronolyticum CCUG 35055T showed a relatedness value of 13.3 % (13.7 % on repeat analysis). The genotypic and phenotypic data show that the strain merits classification within a novel species of Corynebacterium. We propose the name Corynebacterium pyruviciproducens sp. nov. for the novel species. The type strain is 06-1773OT (=WAL 19168T =CCUG 57046T =ATCC BAA-1742T).

Type Strains

A soil isolate, strain CC-AB07T, was characterized using a polyphasic approach. This organism had chemotaxonomic and morphological properties consistent with its classification in the genus Gordonia. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that the novel strain formed a monophyletic branch at the periphery of the evolutionary radiation occupied by the genus Gordonia, its closest neighbours being the type strains of Gordonia alkanivorans, Gordonia amicalis, Gordonia bronchialis, Gordonia desulfuricans, Gordonia polyisoprenivorans and Gordonia rhizosphera. The novel isolate was distinguished from all of these type strains using a range of phenotypic properties and by gyrB gene sequence analysis. It was evident from the genotypic and phenotypic data that strain CC-AB07T should be classified as representing a novel species in the genus Gordonia, for which the name Gordonia soli sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CC-AB07T (=BCRC 16810T=DSM 44995T).

A novel actinomycete was isolated from radiation-polluted soil collected from Xinjiang in north-western China. The isolate, strain R24T, was found to have chemical and morphological properties associated with members of the genus Lechevalieria. An almost-complete 16S rRNA gene sequence of the isolate was aligned with corresponding sequences from representatives of the genus Lechevalieria and related taxa, using three tree-making algorithms, and was shown to form a distinct phyletic line in the Lechevalieria phylogenetic tree. DNA–DNA relatedness and phenotypic data served to distinguish strain R24T from members of the three Lechevalieria species with validly published names. The genotypic and phenotypic data show that the isolate should be classified as a novel species within the genus Lechevalieria. The name proposed for this taxon is Lechevalieria xinjiangensis sp. nov. The type strain is R24T (=CGMCC 4.3525T=DSM 45081T).

The taxonomic position of a Streptomyces strain isolated from an extreme hyper-arid soil sample collected from the Atacama Desert was determined using a polyphasic approach. The strain, isolate C60T, had chemical and morphological features typical of members of the genus Streptomyces and formed a distinct phyletic line in the Streptomyces 16S rRNA gene tree, together with the type strain of Streptomyces radiopugnans . The two strains were distinguished readily using a combination of phenotypic properties and by a DNA–DNA relatedness value of 23.17 (±0.95) %. On the basis of these genotypic and phenotypic data, it is proposed that isolate C60T ( = CGMCC 4.7018T = KACC 15492T) be classified in the genus Streptomyces as Streptomyces atacamensis sp. nov.

The taxonomic position of an actinomycete isolated from a brown hypermagnesian ultramafic soil was examined using a polyphasic approach. The organism, which was designated SBHS Strp1T, was found to have chemical and morphological properties typical of Amycolatopsis strains. It was most closely associated with Amycolatopsis kentuckyensis, Amycolatopsis lexingtonensis, Amycolatopsis rifamycinica, Amycolatopsis pretoriensis and Amycolatopsis tolypomycina on the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence data, and showed a unique pattern of phenotypic properties that distinguished it from the type strains of these taxa. The combined genotypic and phenotypic data show that the organism merits description as a novel species of Amycolatopsis. The name proposed for the novel species is Amycolatopsis plumensis sp. nov.; the type strain is SBHS Strp1T (=DSM 44776T=NRRL B-24324T).

Using Data

The taxonomic position of a soil isolate, strain BK147T, was established using data from a polyphasic study. The organism showed a combination of chemotaxonomic and morphological characteristics consistent with its classification in the genus Actinomadura . It formed a distinct phyletic line in the phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences of members of the genus Actinomadura and was most closely, albeit loosely, related to Actinomadura bangladeshensis DSM 45347T, Actinomadura meyerae DSM 44715T and Actinomadura napierensis NRRL B-24319T but was readily distinguished from these strains using a range of phenotypic properties. Based on the combined genotypic and phenotypic data it is proposed that isolate BK147T ( = KACC 20919T = NCIMB 14771T = NRRL B-24852T) be classified as the type strain of a novel species of the genus Actinomadura , for which the name Actinomadura xylanilytica sp. nov. is proposed.
