Abstract
A novel actinobacterium, designated strain NEAU-7082T, was isolated from rhizosphere soil of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and characterized by using a polyphasic approach. Morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics confirmed the affiliation of strain NEAU-7082T to the genus Glycomyces . 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain NEAU-7082T belonged to the genus Glycomyces and was closely related to Glycomyces mayteni JCM 16217T (99.0 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), Glycomyces sambucus DSM 45047T (98.4 %), Glycomyces scopariae DSM 44968T (98.3 %), Glycomyces paridis DSM 102295T (98.1 %), Glycomyces artemisiae NBRC 109773T (98.0 %) and Glycomyces dulcitolivorans DSM 105121T (97.9 %). Phylogenetic analysis using the 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that the strain formed a stable clade with G. mayteni JCM 16217T and clustered with G. sambucus DSM 45047T, G. scopariae DSM 44968T, G. artemisiae NBRC 109773T and G. dulcitolivorans DSM 105121T in the genus Glycomyces . The cell wall contained meso-diaminopimelic acid and the whole-cell hydrolysates were glucose and xylose. The polar lipid profile consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), glycolipid (GL), phosphatidylinositol mannoside (PIM) and an unidentified lipid (UL). The menaquinones were MK-11(H4), MK-11 and MK-10. Major fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. These chemotaxonomic data substantiated the affiliation of strain NEAU-7082T to the genus Glycomyces . The DNA G+C content was 71.3 mol%. A combination of DNA–DNA hybridization results and some phenotypic characteristics demonstrated that strain NEAU-7082T could be distinguished from its closest relatives. Therefore, strain NEAU-7082T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Glycomyces , for which the name Glycomyces albidus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NEAU-7082T (=CCTCC AA 2019045T=JCM 33458T).
