Abstract

A novel actinomycete, designated KLBMP 1284, was isolated from the surface-sterilized stems of a coastal halophyte Lour. collected from the city of Nantong, Jiangsu Province, east China. The strain was found to have morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics typical of members of the genus . Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain KLBMP 1284 revealed that the strain formed a distinct clade within the phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences and the highest sequence similarity (99.43 %) was to NRRL B-1627. 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to other species of the genus was lower than 97 %. Based on DNA–DNA hybridization values and comparison of morphological and phenotypic data, KLBMP 1284 could be distinguished from the closest phylogenetically related species, NRRL B-1627. Thus, based on these data, it is evident that strain KLBMP 1284 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KLBMP 1284 ( = KCTC 19890 = NBRC 108770).
