Abstract

A novel aerobic soil actinobacterium (strain MB10) belonging to the genus was isolated from rice field soil samples collected from Jagatpur, Orissa, India. Cells were Gram-stain positive, short rod-shaped and motile. The strain was oxidase-negative and catalase-positive. Heterotrophic growth was observed at pH 5.0–11.0 and at 16–37 °C; optimum growth was observed at 28 °C and pH 7.0–9.0. The DNA G+C content was 71.6 mol%. Predominant cellular fatty acids of strain MB10 were iso-C, anteiso-C, C, iso-C and anteiso-C. Cell wall sugars were galactose, glucose and rhamnose. The major isoprenoid quinones were MK-9 (10 %), MK-10 (43 %) and MK-11 (36 %). The peptidoglycan represents the peptidoglycan type B2β. The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phospholipid and unknown glycolipids. 16S rRNA gene sequence identity revealed the strain MB10 clustered within the radiation of the genus and showed 99.2 % similarity with DSM 20145. However, DNA–DNA similarity study was 37.0 % with DSM 20145, the nearest phylogenetic relative. On the basis of phenotypic and chemotaxonomic properties, 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis and DNA–DNA reassociation studies, it is proposed that strain MB10 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed; the type strain is MB10 ( = JCM 16837 = DSM 23396).
