sp. nov., isolated from the gorgonian coral, Free

Abstract

An actinobacterial strain, SCSIO 10427, was isolated from a gorgonian coral sample collected from Weizhou Island, Guangxi province, China, and its taxonomic position was investigated using a polyphasic approach. The organism was found to have a range of chemical and morphological properties consistent with its classification in the genus . Phylogenetic analysis indicated that 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between strain SCSIO 10427 and type strains of other recognized members of the genus was lower than 98.4 %. Furthermore, phenotypic characteristics revealed that the strain differed from the currently recognized species of the genus . Therefore, strain SCSIO 10427 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SCSIO 10427 ( = CCTCC AA 2011010 = DSM 45611).
