Physiological And Biochemical

A novel actinobacterium, designated strain H14505T, was isolated from a soil sample collected in Hong Yuan, Sichuan, southwest PR China. The temperature, pH and NaCl ranges for growth were determined to be 15–35 °C (optimum, 28 °C), 6.0–8.0 (optimum, pH 7.0) and 0–2 % (w/v; optimum without NaCl), respectively. The polar lipdis detected for strain H14505T were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, glycolipid and four unidentified lipids. The predominant menaquinones of strain H14505T were MK-9(H4) and MK-9(H6), and the prevalent fatty acids (>10 %) were C18 : 1 ω9c, C17 : 1 ω8c, summed feature 5 (anteiso-C18 : 0/ C18 : 2 ω6,9c) and C16 : 0. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene and whole-genome sequences indicated that strain H14505T showed high similarity to Catellatospora vulcania NEAU-JM1T (99.0 %) and Catellatospora paridis NEAU-CL2T (99.0 %), and formed a monophyletic clade within the the genus Catellatospora in the phylogenetic trees. However, the average nucleotide indentity and DNA–DNA hybridization values between strain H14505T and closely related Catellatospora species showed that it belonged to a distinct species. Furthermore, the results of morphological, physiological and biochemical tests allowed further phenotypic differentiation of strain H14505T from its closest relatives. Thus, it is proposed that strain H14505T represents a novel species of the genus Catellatospora , for which the name Catellatospora sichuanensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Catellatospora sichuanensis is H14505T (=JCM 32394T=CICC 11042T).

Novel Bacteria

Two novel bacteria, designated strains Gsoil 634T and Dae 20T, were isolated in South Korea from soil of a ginseng field and freshwater sediment, respectively and were characterized by a polyphasic approach to clarify their taxonomic positions. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that, although they probably represented two distinct species (indicated by a sequence similarity of 96.6 %), both strain Gsoil 634T and strain Dae 20T belonged to the genus Sphingomonas and were most closely related to ‘Sphingomonas humi’ PB323 (97.8 % and 96.7 % sequence similarity, respectively), Sphingomonas kaistensis PB56T (96.8 % and 96.7 %), Sphingomonas astaxanthinifaciens TDMA-17T (96.6 % and 95.4 %) and Sphingomonas jaspsi TDMA-16T (95.6 % and 95.8 %). For both novel strains, the major ubiquinone was Q-10, the major polyamine was homospermidine, the major cellular fatty acids included summed feature 7 (C18 : 1ω7c, C18 : 1ω9t and/or C18 : 1ω12t), C17 : 1ω6c and C16 : 0, and the polar lipids included sphingoglycolipid. These chemotaxonomic data supported the affiliation of both strains to the genus Sphingomonas . However, the DNA–DNA relatedness value between strain Gsoil 634T and ‘Sphingomonas humi’ PB323T was 31 %. Moreover, the results of physiological and biochemical tests allowed the phenotypic differentiation of strains Gsoil 634T and Dae 20T from established members of the genus Sphingomonas . Based on these data, the two isolates represent two novel species in the genus Sphingomonas , for which the names Sphingomonas ginsengisoli sp. nov. (type strain Gsoil 634T = KCTC 12630T = DSM 18094T = LMG 23739T) and Sphingomonas sediminicola sp. nov. (type strain Dae 20T  = KCTC 12629T = DSM 18106T = LMG 23592T) are proposed.

A novel Streptomyces strain (SSL-25T) was isolated from mangrove soil sampled at QinzhouBay, PR China. The isolate was observed to be Gram-stain-positive and to form greyish-white aerial mycelia that differentiated into straight spore chains with smooth-surfaced spores on International Streptomyces Project 2 medium. The cell-wall peptidoglycan was determined to contain ll-diaminopimelicacid. The cell-wall sugars were glucose and mannose. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9 (H6), MK-9 (H8) and MK-9 (H4). The major polar lipids contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol mannoside and several unidentified phospholipids. The predominant cellular fatty acids were C16:0, iso-C16:0 and summed feature 3 (C16:1ω7c/C16:1ω6c). The genome size of strain SSL-25T was 8.1 Mbp with a G+C content of 71.5 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that strain SSL-25T is closely related to Streptomyces tsukubensis NRRL 18488T (99.4 % sequence similarity). However, the digital DNA–DNA hybridization (39.8 %) and average nucleotide identity (91.3 %) values between them showed that it represents a distinct species. Furthermore, the results of morphological, physiological and biochemical tests allowed further phenotypic differentiation of strain SSL-25T from S. tsukubensis NRRL 18488T. Therefore, based on these results, it is concluded that strain SSL-25T represents a novel Streptomyces species, for which the name Streptomyces qinzhouensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SSL-25T (=CICC 11054T=JCM33585T).

Seven Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped bacteria were isolated from Lebeckia ambigua root nodules and authenticated on this host. Based on the 16S rRNA gene phylogeny, they were shown to belong to the genus Burkholderia , with the representative strain WSM5005T being most closely related to Burkholderia tuberum (98.08 % sequence similarity). Additionally, these strains formed a distinct group in phylogenetic trees based on the housekeeping genes gyrB and recA. Chemotaxonomic data including fatty acid profiles and analysis of respiratory quinones supported the assignment of the strains to the genus Burkholderia . Results of DNA–DNA hybridizations, and physiological and biochemical tests allowed genotypic and phenotypic differentiation of our strains from the closest species of the genus Burkholderia with a validly published name. Therefore, these strains represent a novel species for which the name Burkholderia sprentiae sp. nov. (type strain WSM5005T = LMG 27175T = HAMBI 3357T) is proposed.

The taxonomic position of strain JL-22T, isolated from litter of a bamboo (Sasa borealis) forest, was determined using a polyphasic approach. The organism had phenotypic and morphological properties consistent with it being a member of the genus Streptomyces . Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that strain JL-22T was closely related to Streptomyces prunicolor NRRL B-12281T (99.2 %), Streptomyces galilaeus JCM 4757T (99.0 %) and Streptomyces chartreusis NBRC 12753T (99.0 %). However, the results of DNA–DNA hybridization and physiological and biochemical tests showed that strain JL-22T could be differentiated from its closest phylogenetic relatives both genotypically and phenotypically. Based on phenotypic and genotypic data, strain JL-22T represents a novel species of the genus Streptomyces , for which the name Streptomyces graminifolii sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is JL-22T ( = KACC 17180T = NBRC 109806T).

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).

Five Gram-stain-negative, catalase- and oxidase-positive, rod-shaped and motile strains (FT50WT, FT80WT, FT92WT, FT94W and FT135WT) were isolated from a subtropical stream in PR China. Comparisons based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strains FT50WT, FT94W and FT135WT take strain Duganella sacchari Sac-22T, and strains FT80WT and FT92WT take strain Duganella ginsengisoli DCY83T as their closest neighbour in the phylogenetic trees, respectively. The G+C contents of strains FT50WT, FT80WT, FT92WT, FT94W and FT135WT were 63.3, 62.4, 62.8, 63.8 and 60.8 %, respectively. The reconstructed phylogenomic tree based on concatenated 92 core genes showed that strains FT50WT, FT80WT, FT94W and FT135WT clustered together with species of the genus Duganella , but strains FT92WT and D. ginsengisoli KCTC 42409T were located in the clades of the genus Massilia . The calculated pairwise average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH) values among strains FT50WT, FT80WT, FT92WT, FT94W, FT135WT and related strains were in the ranges of 75.6–87.8% and 20.3–33.8% except that the values between strains FT50WT and FT94W were 98.7 and 89.2%, respectively. The respiratory quinone of these five strains was Q-8. The major fatty acids were C16 : 1  ω7c, C16 : 0, C18 : 1  ω7c and C12 : 0. The polar lipids included phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and one unidentified phospholipid. Considering the distinct phylogenetic relationships of D. ginsengisoli with species of the genus Massilia in the phylogenomic tree, it was reasonable to transfer D. ginsengisoli to the genus Massilia as Massilia ginsengisoli comb. nov. Combining the results of phylogenomic analysis, ANI and dDDH data, and a range of physiological and biochemical characteristics together, strains FT50WT and FT94W should belong to the same species and be assigned to genus Duganella with strains FT80WT and FT135WT together, and strain FT92WT should be assigned to the genus Massilia , for which the names Duganella lactea sp. nov. (type strain FT50WT=GDMCC 1.1674T=KACC 21466T), Duganella guangzhouensis sp. nov. (FT80WT=GDMCC 1.1678T=KACC 21470T), Duganella flavida sp. nov.

Strain THG-B117T grew well at 25–30 °C and at pH 6.0–8.0 in the absence of NaCl on nutrient agar. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, strain THG-B117T was shown to belong to the family Xanthomonadaceae and be related to Dyella japonica XD53T (98.7 % similarity), Dyella terrae JS14-6T (98.0 %), Dyella koreensis BB4T (96.9 %), Dyella soli JS12-10T (96.9 %) and Dyella thiooxydans ATSB10T (96.7 %). DNA–DNA hybridization experiments showed that DNA relatedness between strain THG-B117T and its phylogenetically closest neighbours was below 45.1 %. The G+C content of the genomic DNA of strain THG-B117T was 64.8 mol%. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, unidentified aminolipids, unidentified aminophospholipids and unidentified phospholipids. Phenotypic and chemotaxonomic data (major ubiquinone was Q-8, and major fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0, iso-C17 : 0 and iso-C17 : 1ω9c) supported the affiliation of strain THG-B117T with the genus Dyella . The results of physiological and biochemical tests suggested that strain THG-B117T was different genotypically and phenotypically from recognized species of the genus Dyella , and represents a novel species of this genus. The name Dyella kyungheensis sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain THG-B117T ( = KACC 16981T = JCM 18747T).

A facultatively anaerobic, Gram-stain-positive, spore-forming Bacillus strain, 17-SMS-01T, isolated from spent mushroom substrate in the Fangshan District, Beijing, PR China, was initially identified as a Bacillus cereus group species based on 16S rRNA gene sequences. Strain 17-SMS-01T had the highest sequence similarities to Bacillus wiedmannii FSL W8-0169T (99.9 %), Bacillus albus N35-10-2T (99.9 %), Bacillus luti TD41T (99.9 %) and Bacillus proteolyticus TD42T (99.9 %). However, the average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA–DNA hybridization (DDH) values between strain 17-SMS-01T and the most closely related species were less than the previously proposed cut-off values of 96 % (ANI) and 70 % (DDH) for differentiating species within the genus, suggesting that this strain represents a novel Bacillus group species. The fatty acid profile of strain 17-SMS-01T, which showed a predominance of iso-C15 : 0 and anteiso-C15 : 0, supported the allocation of the strain to the genus Bacillus . The predominant menaquinone was MK-7 (100%). The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidyl ethanolamine, phosphatidyl glycerol, an unidentified aminophospholiped and unidentified lipids. The DNA G+C content of the novel strain was 35.0 mol%. The results of physiological and biochemical tests also allowed the phenotypic differentiation of strain 17-SMS-01T from the most closely related recognized species. On the basis of the phylogenetic and phenotypic evidence, strain 17-SMS-01T represents a novel Bacillus species, for which the name Bacillus fungorum sp. nov. is proposed. Type strain of the novel species is 17-SMS-01T (=MCCC 1K03483T=KCTC 33949T).

A novel moderately halophilic, filamentous actinobacterium, designated as XMNu-373T, was isolated from a saline–alkaline soil sample collected from the Mongolia Plateau, Dongwu County, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, PR China. The isolate grew optimally at 28‒37 °C, pH 7.0‒8.0 and with 2–5 % (w/v) NaCl. The substrate mycelia fragmented into rod-like elements, and the white aerial mycelia formed spore chains at maturity. The predominant menaquinone was MK-9(H4). The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, three unidentified phosphoglycolipids, an unidentified aminophospholipid, two phosphatidylinositol mannosides, four unidentified phospholipids, phosphatidylglycerol and two unidentified lipids. The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0 and anteiso-C15 : 0. The genomic DNA G+C content was 66.2 mol%. It shared high 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities to Phytoactinopolyspora halotolerans YIM 96448T (96.1 %) and Phytoactinopolyspora endophytica EGI 60009T (96.0 %). Phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain XMNu-373T resided in the clade of family Jiangellaceae , and it formed a monophyletic branch distinct from four other recognized type species in the subclade of the genus Phytoactinopolyspora . On the basis of polyphasic taxonomic evidence, strain XMNu-373T represents a novel species of the genus Phytoactinopolyspora , for which the name Phytoactinopolyspora mesophila sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is XMNu-373T (=JCM 33740T=CGMCC 4.7654T).
