Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that strain NEAU-Z6T belonged to the genus Nonomuraea , with highest sequence similarity to Nonomuraea monospora PT 708T (98.83 %), Nonomuraea rosea GW 12687T (98.55 %) and Nonomuraea rhizophila YIM 67092T (98.02 %). Sequence similarities between strain NEAU-Z6T and other species of the genus Nonomuraea ranged from 97.94 % ( Nonomuraea candida HMC10T) to 96.30 % ( Nonomuraea wenchangensis 210417T). Key morphological, physiological and chemotaxonomic characteristics of strain NEAU-Z6T were congruent with the description of the genus Nonomuraea . The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 64.51 mol%. DNA–DNA relatedness and comparative analysis of physiological, biochemical and chemotaxonomic data allowed genotypic and phenotypic differentiation of strain NEAU-Z6T from closely related species. Thus, strain NEAU-Z6T represents a novel species of the genus Nonomuraea , for which the name Nonomuraea solani sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NEAU-Z6T ( = CGMCC 4.7037T = DSM 45729T). %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijs.0.045617-0
