Abstract

A novel actinomycete, designated strain GUI 15, isolated from the root nodules of a plant was characterized taxonomically by using a polyphasic approach. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain GUI 15 showed highest similarity to TJ2-2 (98.7 %) and TT 97-42 (98.5 %). Phylogenetic analysis based on the gyrase B gene also supported the close relationship of these three strains, but indicated that strain GUI 15 should be assigned to the genus . Chemotaxonomic results confirmed the position of the isolate in the genus , but revealed differences at the species level. The novel strain could be distinguished from recognized species by using a combination of physiological and biochemical tests. Based on these observations, strain GUI 15 is considered to represent a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is GUI 15 (=DSM 45175=LMG 24546).
