sp. nov., isolated from plant litter in Vietnam Free

Abstract

Three actinomycetes, designated strains VN05A0342, VN05A0351 and VN05A0415, were isolated from plant-litter samples collected in the north of Vietnam and examined in a polyphasic taxonomic study. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that these isolates were most closely related to the type strain of (98.5 % sequence similarity). Morphological properties (the formation of spore domes and motile spores) and chemotaxonomic data supported the assignment of the three isolates to the genus . The isolates all contained the following: -diaminopimelic acid in the peptidoglycan (with small amounts of the isomer); ribose, mannose, galactose and glucose as the whole-cell sugars; MK-9(H) as the predominant isoprenoid quinone; C and C as the major cellular fatty acids; and phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol as the phospholipids. The high DNA–DNA relatedness (>71 %) among the three isolates showed that they represented a single species. On the other hand, the DNA–DNA relatedness between the novel isolates and all type strains of species was less than 46 %. The physiological properties of our isolates were distinct from those of all of the species with validly published names, e.g. decomposition of -tyrosine and aesculin and the utilization of raffinose and -arabitol. Therefore, strains VN05A0342, VN05A0351 and VN05A0415 represent a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is VN05A0415 (=VTCC-A-0961 =NBRC 104154).
