A novel endophytic actinomycete, designated strain p1410T, was isolated from the root of cattail pollen (Typha angustifolia L.) and characterized using a polyphasic approach. The strain had morphological characteristics and chemotaxonomic properties identical to those of members of the genus Nonomuraea . It produced spiral chains of spores on aerial mycelium as well as forming a pseudosporangium. Whole-cell hydrolysates contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, glucose, ribose and madurose. The menaquinones detected were MK-9(H2), MK-9(H4) and MK-9(H0). The major fatty acids were 10-methyl C17 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 and C17 : 0. The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylmethylethanolamine, phosphatidylethanolamine, hydroxyphosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol mannoside and an unknown glycolipid. The DNA G+C content of the draft genome sequence, consisting of 11.4 Mbp, was 70.9 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain p1410T belongs to the genus Nonomuraea with the highest sequence similarity to Nonomuraea candida HMC10T (98.6 %), but phylogenetically clustered with Nonomuraea endophytica YIM 65601T (98.4 %) and Nonomuraea longicatena NRRL 15532T (98.3 %). Based on its phenotypic characteristics, DNA–DNA relatedness and average nucleotide identity, the strain is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Nonomuraea , for which the name Nonomuraea typhae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is p1410T (=CCTCC AA 2019044T=JCM 33461T).

A Gram-stain-positive, spore-forming actinomycete strain (HKI0641T) was isolated from a soil sample collected in the Black Forest, Germany. During screening for antimicrobial natural products this bacterium was identified as a producer of the antibiotic telomycin. Morphological characteristics and chemotaxonomic data indicated that the strain belonged to the genus Micromonospora . The peptidoglycan of strain HKI0641T contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, and the fatty acid profile consisted predominantly of anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 and C16 : 0. MK-10(H4), MK-10(H2) and MK-10 were identified as the major menaquinones. To determine the taxonomic positioning of strain HKI0641T, we computed a binary tanglegram of two rooted phylogenetic trees that were based upon 16S rRNA and gyrB gene sequences. The comparative analysis of the two common classification methods strongly supported the phylogenetic affiliation with the genus Micromonospora , but it also revealed discrepancies in the assignment at the level of the genomic species. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis identified Micromonospora coxensis DSM 45161T (99.1 % sequence similarity) and Micromonospora marina DSM 45555T (99.0 %) as the nearest taxonomic neighbours, whereas the gyrB sequence of strain HKI0641T indicated a closer relationship to Micromonospora aurantiaca DSM 43813T (95.1 %). By means of DNA–DNA hybridization experiments, it was possible to resolve this issue and to clearly differentiate strain HKI0641T from other species of the genus Micromonospora . The type strains of the aforementioned species of the genus Micromonospora could be further distinguished from strain HKI0641T by several phenotypic properties, such as colony colour, NaCl tolerance and the utilization of carbon sources. The isolate was therefore assigned to a novel species of the genus Micromonospora , for which the name Micromonospora schwarzwaldensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HKI0641T ( = DSM 45708T = CIP 110415T).

Strain VN07A0015T was isolated from soil collected on Cat Ba Island, Vietnam. The taxonomic position of strain VN07A0015T was near Streptomyces aomiensis M24DS4T (98.5 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity) and Streptomyces scabrisporus NBRC 100760T (95.6 %), and it clustered within them; however, this cluster was distant from the type strains of other species of the genus Streptomyces . The aerial mycelia of strain VN07A0015T were greyish and formed imperfect spiral spore chains (retinaculiaperti type) with smooth-surfaced spores. The morphological features of strain VN07A0015T were different from those of the type strains of S. aomiensis and S. scabrisporus . The chemotaxonomic characteristics of strain VN07A0015T were typical for all members of the genus Streptomyces , which possessed ll-type diaminopimelic acid, menaquinone MK-9(H6, H8) and the major fatty acids iso-C16 : 0 and iso-C15 : 0. DNA–DNA relatedness between strain VN07A0015T and S. aomiensis NBRC 106164T was less than 30 %. In addition, some physiological and biochemical traits differed from those of S. aomiensis . Therefore, we propose that strain VN07A0015T be classified in the genus Streptomyces as a representative of Streptomyces catbensis sp. nov. (type strain VN07A0015T = VTCC-A-1889T = NBRC 107860T).

Two Gram-stain-positive, non-endospore-forming actinobacteria (Ca8Tand Ca14) were isolated from a bioreactor with extensive phosphorus removal. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity comparisons, strains Ca8T and Ca14 were shown to belong to the genus Gordonia and were most closely related to Gordonia hirsuta DSM 44140T (98.0 % sequence similarity) and Gordonia hydrophobica DSM 44015T (97.2 %). In comparison with the sequences of the type strains of all other species of the genus Gordonia tested, similarities were below 97 %. The quinone systems of the strains were determined to consist predominantly of MK-9H2. The polar lipid profile for both organisms consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phospatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylinositol mannoside. Whole-organism hydrolysates contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as the diamino acid of the peptidoglycan; mycolic acids were detected as well. These chemotaxonomic traits and the major fatty acids, which were C16 : 1 cis-9, C16 : 0 and C18 : 1 and tuberculostearic acid strongly supported the grouping of strains Ca8T and Ca14 into the genus Gordonia . The two strains showed a DNA–DNA similarity of 96 %. DNA–DNA hybridizations of strain Ca8T with G. hirsuta DSM 44140T and G. hydrophobica DSM 44015T resulted in values of 26.3 and 25.0 %, respectively. These results and those of the physiological and biochemical tests allowed a clear phenotypic differentiation of strains Ca8T and Ca14 from the most closely related species of the genus Gordonia . It is concluded that strains Ca8T and Ca14 represent a novel species, for which the name Gordonia phosphorivorans sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain Ca8T ( = DSM 45630T = CCUG 61533T = CCM 7957T = LMG 26648T).
