Abstract
A novel actinobacterial strain, SB3-45T, was isolated from soil of Cynanchum wilfordii rhizosphere, Jaecheon-si, Chungcheongbuk-do, Republic of Korea. Strain SB3-45T, was Gram-stain-positive, aerobic and coccoid to short rod-shaped bacterium. Growth occurred at 4–37 °C (optimum 28 °C), pH 5–8 (optimum pH 7) and 0–2.5 % NaCl (optimum 0%). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that strain SB3-45T belonged to the genus Nocardioides and was closely related to Nocardioides opuntiae OS-21T (96.2%) and Nocardioides panacihumi Gsoil 616T (95.9%). ll-DAP as the diamino acid in the peptidoglycan and the menaquinone MK-8(H4) as the predominant isoprenoid quinone were detected. The polar lipids of strain SB3-45T were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol and unidentified phospholipid. The major cellular fatty acids (>5%) of strain SB3-45T were iso-C16 : 0, C18 : 1 ω9c and C17 : 0. Based on phylogenetic, physiological and chemotaxonomic characteristics, strain SB3-45T represents a novel species of the genus Nocardioides, for which the name Nocardioides cynanchi sp.nov. is proposed. The type strain is SB3-45T (=KCTC 49133T=NBRC 114107T).
