Cells exhibited cream–white aerial mycelium and orange–yellow to yellow–brown substrate mycelium. The substrate mycelium fragmented into rod-shaped elements, and the aerial mycelium formed long chains of spores. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain YIM 45505T was related most closely to Pseudonocardia oroxyli DSM 44984T (98.5 % similarity) and Pseudonocardia halophobica IMSNU 21327T (97.5 %). The G+C content of the DNA of strain YIM 45505T was 74.1 mol%. Combined with results of DNA–DNA hybridization and phenotypic tests, these data revealed that strain YIM 45505T represents a novel species of the genus Pseudonocardia, for which the name Pseudonocardia ailaonensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YIM 45505T (=KCTC 19315T =DSM 44979T).", }
