Strain YIM DR4008T could grow at temperatures ranging from 10 to 50 °C (optimum 28–30 °C), at pH 5.0–11.0 (optimum pH 7.0) and in the presence of up to 4 % (w/v) NaCl. Sequence analysis of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene revealed that strain YIM DR4008T shared highest similarity (95.0 %) with Streptomyces griseoplanus NBRC 12779T and <95 % similarity with other known members of the genera Streptomyces , Kitasatospora and Streptacidiphilus . The diagnostic cell-wall diamino acid of strain YIM DR4008T was found to be ll-diaminopimelic acid. The whole-cell hydrolysates contained a major amount of galactose and mannose along with a small proportion of fucose, glucose, rhamnose and ribose. The polar lipids consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol mannosides and three unidentified phospholipids. The respiratory menaquinones were MK-9(H6) and MK-9(H8), while the major cellular fatty acids (>10 %) were anteiso-C15 : 0, C16 : 0, iso-C16 : 0, iso-C15 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. The genomic DNA G+C content was determined to be 75.3 mol%. Based on the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and molecular characteristics, strain YIM DR4008T is proposed to be recognized as a novel species of a new genus in the family Streptomycetaceae , with the name Allostreptomyces psammosilenae gen. nov., sp. nov. The type strain of the type species is YIM DR4008T (=DSM 42178T=CGMCC 4.7247T). An emended description of the family Streptomycetaceae is also provided.", }
