Abstract

A novel endophytic actinomycete, designated strain NEAU-365, was isolated from the root of collected from Nanjing, Jiangsu, PR China. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequencing showed that strain NEAU-365 belonged to the genus but clearly differs from the currently recognized species Z350 (99.31 %), NEAU-KD1 (98.82 %) and MUSC 201 (97.78 %). Phylogenetic tree analysis revealed that strain NEAU-365 clustered with the type strains of the genus . The genome size was 4.1 Mbp with a DNA G+C content of 71.2 mol%. Digital DNA–DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values between the genome sequence of strain NEAU-365 and those of Z350(27.5 and 84.0 %), NEAU-KD1(23.4 and 80.9 %) and MUSC 201(20.9 and 77.7 %) were below the recommended thresholds for species delineation. Cells were observed to be irregular cocci shaped. The cell wall contained -diaminopimelic acid and the whole-cell sugars were galactose and rhamnose. The polar lipids consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphoglycolipid and three unidentified phospholipids. The predominant menaquinone was detected as MK-9(H). The major fatty acids were C, C, C ω9 and 10-methyl C. On the basis of genotypic and phenotypic differences from members of the genus , a novel species, sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NEAU-365 (=CCTCC AA 2021033=JCM 35005).
