The filamentous actinomycete that produces the antibiotic GE23077 was isolated by the Lepetit Research Group from a soil sample collected in Thailand, and it was classified as a member of the genus Actinomadura on the basis of its morphology and cell-wall composition. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that this strain formed a distinct monophyletic line within the genus Actinomadura, and it was most closely related to Actinomadura bangladeshensis DSM 45347T (99.31 % similarity) and Actinomadura mexicana DSM 44485T (98.94 %). The GE23077-producing strain formed an extensively branched, non-fragmented vegetative mycelium; no pseudosporangia were formed and the arthrospores were organized in slightly twisted chains. The cell wall contained meso-2,6-diaminopimelic acid and the diagnostic sugar was madurose. The predominant menaquinone was MK-9(H6), with minor amounts of MK-9(H8) and MK-9(H4). The diagnostic phospholipids were phosphatidylinositol and diphosphatidylglycerol. The major cellular fatty acids were C16 : 0 and tuberculostearic acid (10-methyloctadecanoic acid), followed by minor amounts of C18:1ω9c, C16:1ω7c and 10-methylheptadecanoic acid. The genomic DNA G+C content was 71.77 mol%. Significant differences in the morphological, chemotaxonomic and biochemical data, and the low DNA–DNA relatedness between the GE23077-producing strain and closely related type strains clearly demonstrate that it represents a novel species of the genus Actinomadura , for which the name Actinomadura lepetitiana sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NRRL B-65521T(=LMG 31258T=DSM 109019T).

Taxonomic Approach

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).

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).

A Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, motile, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain Mn1-7T, was isolated from manganese mining soil in Tianjin, China. The closest phylogenetic relatives were Lysinibacillus massiliensis CCUG 49529T (97.2 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), L. xylanilyticus XDB9T (96.7 %), L. sinduriensis JCM 15800T (96.2 %), L. odysseyi NBRC 100172T (95.9 %) and L. boronitolerans NBRC 103108T (95.4 %) (the type species of the genus). DNA–DNA hybridization values for strain Mn1-7T with the type strains of L. massiliensis and L. sinduriensis were 24.9 and 27.7 %, respectively. The genomic DNA G+C content was 38.4 mol%. The major menaquinone was MK-7 and the major fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 and iso-C14 : 0. The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylglycerol. The cell-wall peptidoglycan was type A4α (l-Lys–d-Asp), and the predominant cell-wall sugar was xylose. DNA–DNA hybridization results and comparison of phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characters between strain Mn1-7T and the phylogenetically most closely related strains revealed that the isolate represents a novel species of the genus Lysinibacillus , for which the name Lysinibacillus manganicus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Mn1-7T ( = DSM 26584T = CCTCC AB 2012916T).

A Gram-staining-positive, aerobic, non-motile bacterium, designated strain SJ5-8T, was isolated from seau-jeot (shrimp jeotgal), a traditional fermented seafood in South Korea. Cells were non-spore-forming rods showing catalase- and oxidase-positive reactions. Growth of strain SJ5-8T was observed at 10–37 °C (optimum, 30 °C), at pH 6.0–9.0 (optimum, pH 7.5–8.5) and in the presence of 0–14 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 5 %). Phylogenetic inference based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the strain formed a tight phyletic lineage with members of the genus Brevibacterium . Strain SJ5-8T was most closely related to Brevibacterium yomogidense MN-6-aT, Brevibacterium daeguense 2C6-41T and Brevibacterium salitolerans TRM 415T with similarities of 98.9, 97.5 and 97.4 %, respectively. The DNA–DNA relatedness values between strain SJ5-8T and the type strains of B. yomogidense , B. daeguense and B. salitolerans were 51.7±1.9 %, 22.2±4.0 % and 52.4±3.8 %, respectively. Chemotaxonomic data (major sole isoprenoid quinone, MK-8(H2); major diagnostic diamino acid, meso-diaminopimelic acid; major polyamines, putrescine and cadaverine; major cellular fatty acids, anteiso-C15:0, iso-C15:0 and anteiso-C17:0; major polar lipids, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol; DNA G+C content, 69.3 mol%) also supported the affiliation of strain SJ5-8T to the genus Brevibacterium . Therefore, strain SJ5-8T represents a novel species of the genus Brevibacterium , for which the name Brevibacterium jeotgali sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SJ5-8T ( = KACC 16911T = JCM 18571T).

The 16S Rrna Gene

An actinobacterial strain designated MMS20-R1-14T was isolated from a riverside soil sample. Colonies on agar plates were orange to strong orange brown in colour, which later became black. The cells grew at 10–40 °C (optimum, 37 °C), pH 5.0–11.0 (pH 8.0) and in the presence of 0–4 % NaCl (1 %). The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain MMS20-R1-14T showed highest similarities to Micromonospora wenchangensis CCTCC AA 2012002T (99.51 %) and Micromonospora rifamycinica AM105T (99.37 %). The orthoANI values between strain MMS20-R1-14T and the two type strains were 95.72 and 90.99 %, and the digital DNA–DNA hybridization values were 63.6 and 40.8 %, respectively, thus confirming the distinction of strain MMS20-R1-14T from its mostly related species. The DNA G+C content of strain MMS20-R1-14T was 72.9 mol%. The strain contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as the major cell-wall amino acid, and the characteristic whole-cell sugars were arabinose, xylose, glucose, ribose and rhamnose. The main cellular fatty acids were C18 : 1  ω9c, iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0, the diagnostic polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine, and the predominant menaquinones were MK-10(H4) and MK-10(H6), all of which were consistent with those of Micromonospora . Strain MMS20-R1-14T showed antimicrobial activity against a range of bacterial and yeast species. The genome of the strain was found to contain 33 potential biosynthetic gene clusters for secondary metabolites, thus showing a high potential as a producer of bioactive compounds. On the basis of these phenotypic, genotypic and chemotaxonomic data, strain MMS20-R1-14T merits recognition as representing a novel species of the genus Micromonospora , for which the name Micromonospora humida sp. nov. (type strain=MMS20 R1-14T=KCTC 49541T=JCM 34494T) is proposed.

A novel Gram-stain-positive, spore-forming, aerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium designated strain SD111T that forms red-pigmented colonies was isolated from a marine sediment sample (collected from 5 m depth) from Lakshadweep, India. Strain SD111T grew well on seawater agar at pH 6–10 (optimum pH 7.5±0.2). It showed maximum (97.6 %) 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity and formed a monophyletic clade with Domibacillus robiginosus WS 4628T ( = DSM 25058T). The genomic DNA G+C content was 37.4 mol% and the strain showed 37.7 % DNA–DNA relatedness to D. robiginosus DSM 25058T. The major fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0, C16 : 0, iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0 and MK-6 was the predominant quinone. The polar lipid profile of strain SD111T consisted of unidentified phospholipids (PL1 and PL2), phosphatidylglycerol (PG) and diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG). The cell wall contained meso-diaminopimelic acid and the peptidoglycan was of A1γ type. Glucose and ribose were detected as major cell-wall sugars. Results from polyphasic studies indicated that SD111T represents a novel species of the genus Domibacillus for which the name Domibacillus indicus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SD111T ( = MCC 2255T = DSM 28032T).

A Gram-reaction-positive, non-spore-forming, aerobic actinobacterial strain (2C6-41T) was isolated from the activated sludge from an industrial wastewater treatment plant in Daegu, South Korea. Its taxonomic position was investigated by using a polyphasic approach. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, closest phylogenetic relatives to strain 2C6-41T were Brevibacterium pityocampae DSM 21720T (97.2 %), Brevibacterium salitolerans KCTC 19616T (96.7 %), Brevibacterium album KCTC 19173T (96.2 %) and Brevibacterium samyangense KCCM 42316T (96.2 %). The DNA G+C content of strain 2C6-41T was 66.4 mol%. Chemotaxonomic data, which included MK-8(H2) as the major menaquinone; meso-diaminopimelic acid, glutamic acid and alanine as cell-wall amino acids; ribose, mannose and glucose as major cell-wall sugars; and anteiso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0, C16 : 0 and iso-C15 : 0 as major fatty acids, supported the affiliation of strain 2C6-41T to the genus Brevibacterium . The aromatic ring cleavage enzyme catechol 1,2-dioxygenase was not detected in strain 2C6-41T, but catechol 2,3-dioxygenase was detected. The results of physiological and biochemical tests, and the low level of DNA–DNA relatedness to the closest phylogenetic relative enabled strain 2C6-41T to be differentiated genotypically and phenotypically from recognized species of the genus Brevibacterium . The isolate is therefore considered to represent a novel species in the genus Brevibacterium , for which the name Brevibacterium daeguense sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 2C6-41T ( = KCTC 19800T = JCM 17458T).
