Aestuariibacter salexigens gen. nov., sp. nov. and Aestuariibacter halophilus sp. nov., isolated from tidal flat sediment, and emended description of Alteromonas macleodii
More LessTwo strictly aerobic, halophilic strains of the γ-Proteobacteria, designated JC2042T and JC2043T, were obtained from a sediment sample of getbol, the Korean tidal flat. Comparative 16S rDNA sequence studies revealed that the test strains were related most closely to the type strains of the genera Alteromonas (93·5–95·5 %) and Glaciecola (91·1–93·3 %). Phylogenetic analyses demonstrated that strains JC2042T and JC2043T formed a distinct monophyletic clade within the family Alteromonadaceae and clustered distantly with the genera Alteromonas and Glaciecola. Physiological, biochemical and chemotaxonomic data also indicated that the two getbol isolates were significantly different from members of these two genera and others with validly published names. Cells were rod-shaped and motile with a polar flagellum. The major isoprenoid quinone was Q8. The predominant cellular fatty acids were C16 : 0, C18 : 1 ω7c and a mixture of C16 : 1 ω7c and iso-C15 : 0 2-OH. DNA G+C contents were 48–54 mol%. On the basis of this polyphasic study, Aestuariibacter gen. nov. is proposed with two novel species, Aestuariibacter salexigens sp. nov. (type strain, JC2042T=IMSNU 14006T=KCTC 12042T=DSM 15300T) and Aestuariibacter halophilus sp. nov. (type strain, JC2043T=IMSNU 14007T=KCTC 12043T=DSM 15266T). Aestuariibacter salexigens is the type species of the genus. In addition, an emended description of Alteromonas macleodii is proposed.

Amycolatopsis palatopharyngis sp. nov., a potentially pathogenic actinomycete isolated from a human clinical source
More LessThe taxonomic position of an actinomycete, strain 1BDZT, isolated from a clinical human source was determined using a polyphasic approach. Phylogenetic analysis based on almost complete 16S rDNA sequences showed that this organism consistently formed a distinct line with the Amycolatopsis methanolica subclade within the genus Amycolatopsis, and shared moderately low 16S rDNA similarity (<96·5 %) with other species. The organism was also found to have chemical and morphological properties typical of members of the genus Amycolatopsis. A range of phenotypic characteristics readily distinguished this strain from representatives of all species of Amycolatopsis with validly published names. On the basis of these data, a novel species, Amycolatopsis palatopharyngis sp. nov., is proposed to accommodate strain 1BDZT (=AS 4.1729T=PCM 2600T).

Bacillus shackletonii sp. nov., from volcanic soil on Candlemas Island, South Sandwich archipelago
A sample of mossy soil taken from the eastern lava flow of northern Candlemas Island, South Sandwich archipelago, yielded six isolates of aerobic, endospore-forming bacteria. Miniaturized routine phenotypic tests and other observations, amplified rDNA restriction analysis and SDS-PAGE analysis suggested that the strains represent a novel taxon. 16S rDNA sequence comparisons support the proposal of a novel species, Bacillus shackletonii sp. nov., the type strain of which is LMG 18435T (=CIP 107762T).

Nocardia tenerifensis sp. nov.
More LessA Gram-positive, non-spore-forming bacterium (GW39-1573T) was isolated from soil of the Spanish island of Tenerife. 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity studies showed that strain GW39-1573T belonged to the genus Nocardia and was most closely related to Nocardia brasiliensis (98·0 %), Nocardia beijingensis (97·3 %), Nocardia transvalensis (97·5 %), Nocardia asteroides (97·2 %) and Nocardia farcinica (97·0 %). Strain GW39-1573T could be distinguished from all other validly described Nocardia species by sequence similarity values of less than 97 %. Chemotaxonomic data [major menaquinone: MK-8(H4, ω-cycl); major polar lipids: diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol mannoside and an unknown glycolipid and an unknown phospholipid; major fatty acids: C16 : 0, C18 : 1 ω9c and 10 methyl C16 : 0] and the presence of mycolic acids supported the affiliation of strain GW39-1573T to the genus Nocardia. The results of DNA–DNA hybridizations and physiological and biochemical tests allowed genotypic and phenotypic differentiation of strain GW39-1573T from those related species that showed 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of greater than 97 %. Strain GW39-1573T merits species status, and the name Nocardia tenerifensis is proposed with the type strain GW39-1573T (=DSM 44704T=CIP 107929T).

Bifidobacterium psychraerophilum sp. nov. and Aeriscardovia aeriphila gen. nov., sp. nov., isolated from a porcine caecum
More LessIn a previous study that was based primarily on 16S rDNA sequencing, two groups of bifidobacteria that had been recovered from a pig caecum were proposed to belong to two novel species, termed ‘Bifidobacterium pyschroaerophilum’ and ‘Bifidobacterium aerophilum’. In this study, based on DNA G+C content and partial heat-shock protein 60 (HSP60) gene sequences, the assignment of ‘B. pyschroaerophilum’, corrected to Bifidobacterium pyschraerophilum, to the genus Bifidobacterium was confirmed. The DNA G+C content of ‘B. aerophilum’ was relatively low, which was consistent with its segregation into subcluster II of the 16S rDNA phylogenetic tree. Based on partial 16S rDNA and HSP60 gene sequences, the species was transferred to a novel genus and reclassified as Aeriscardovia aeriphila gen. nov., sp. nov. Biochemical profiles and growth parameters were established for both novel species. Interestingly, each had a high tolerance to oxygen and grew on agar media under aerobic conditions, a trait that may relate to their caecal habitat. Under aerobic growth conditions, the short-rod morphology of A. aeriphila lengthened considerably. This appeared to arise from incomplete cell division. In addition, B. pyschraerophilum was unusual in that it grew at temperatures as low as 4 °C. On the basis of genetic, phylogenetic and phenotypic data, the identities of Bifidobacterium pyschraerophilum sp. nov. (type strain, T16T=LMG 21775T=NCIMB 13940T) and Aeriscardovia aeriphila gen. nov., sp. nov. (type strain, T6T=LMG 21773T=NCIMB 13939T) are confirmed.

Rhodococcus gordoniae sp. nov., an actinomycete isolated from clinical material and phenol-contaminated soil
The taxonomic relationships of two actinomycetes provisionally assigned to the genus Rhodococcus were determined using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The generic assignment was confirmed by 16S rRNA gene similarity data, as the organisms, strains MTCC 1534 and W 4937T, were shown to belong to the Rhodococcus rhodochrous subclade. These organisms had phenotypic properties typical of rhodococci; they were aerobic, Gram-positive, weakly acid-fast actinomycetes that showed an elementary branching-rod–coccus growth cycle and contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, arabinose and galactose in whole-organism hydrolysates, N-glycolated muramic acid residues, dehydrogenated menaquinones with eight isoprene units as the predominant isoprenologue and mycolic acids that co-migrated with those extracted from the type strain of R. rhodochrous. The strains had identical phenotypic profiles and belong to the same genomic species, albeit one distinguished from Rhodococcus pyridinivorans, with which they formed a distinct phyletic line. They were also distinguished from representatives of all of the species classified in the R. rhodochrous 16S rRNA gene tree using a set of phenotypic features. The genotypic and phenotypic data show that the strains merit recognition as a novel species of Rhodococcus. The name proposed is Rhodococcus gordoniae sp. nov., with the type strain W 4937T (=DSM 44689T=NCTC 13296T).

Anaerotruncus colihominis gen. nov., sp. nov., from human faeces
Phenotypic and phylogenetic studies were performed on two isolates of an unidentified Gram-positive, anaerobic, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped bacterium that was isolated from human faeces. The organisms were catalase-negative, produced acetic and butyric acids as end products of metabolism and possessed a DNA G+C content of approximately 54 mol%. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequencing demonstrated that the two isolates were related closely to each other and formed a hitherto unknown sublineage within the Clostridium leptum rRNA cluster of organisms. Based on phylogenetic and phenotypic evidence, it is proposed that the unknown bacterium should be classified in a novel genus as Anaerotruncus colihominis gen. nov., sp. nov. The type strain of Anaerotruncus colihominis is WAL 14565T=CCUG 45055T=CIP 107754T.

Reclassification of Brevibacillus brevis strains NCIMB 13288 and DSM 6472 (=NRRL NRS-887) as Aneurinibacillus danicus sp. nov. and Brevibacillus limnophilus sp. nov.
More LessComparison of the hypervariable region (269–279 bases in length) at the 5′ end of the 16S rDNA sequences of 29 bacterial strains that were identified previously as Brevibacillus brevis showed that 13 strains clustered with Aneurinibacillus species, eight strains clustered with Bacillus species and eight strains clustered with Brevibacillus species. Based on DNA–DNA hybridization results, 27 strains, not including [Brevibacillus brevis] NCIMB 13288 and [Brevibacillus brevis] DSM 6472, were reidentified as Aneurinibacillus migulanus, Aneurinibacillus thermoaerophilus, Bacillus methanolicus, Bacillus oleronius, Brevibacillus agri, Brevibacillus brevis and Brevibacillus parabrevis. [Brevibacillus brevis] NCIMB 13288, which was located in the Aneurinibacillus cluster, showed low DNA–DNA relatedness (<14 %) and low 16S rDNA sequence similarity (96·8–97·9 %) to other Aneurinibacillus species. [Brevibacillus brevis] DSM 6472, which was located in the Brevibacillus cluster, also showed low DNA–DNA relatedness (<12 %) and low 16S rDNA sequence similarity (95·4–98·8 %) to other Brevibacillus species. These genotypic and phylogenetic data, plus phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, suggest that [Brevibacillus brevis] NCIMB 13288 (=IAM 15048) and [Brevibacillus brevis] DSM 6472 (=NRRL NRS-887) represent novel species of the genera Aneurinibacillus and Brevibacillus, respectively, for which the names Aneurinibacillus danicus sp. nov. and Brevibacillus limnophilus sp. nov. are proposed.

Tepidibacter formicigenes sp. nov., a novel spore-forming bacterium isolated from a Mid-Atlantic Ridge hydrothermal vent
More LessA novel anaerobic, Gram-positive, sporulating and strictly chemoorganoheterotrophic bacterium, designated strain DV1184T, was isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal vent sample from the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. The cells were short, straight rods (4 μm long and 0·8 μm wide) and were motile with peritrichous flagella. They grew between 35 and 55 °C (optimum, 45 °C), between pH 5·0 and 8·0 (optimum, 6·0) and at 20–60 g sea salts l−1 (optimum sea salts concentration, 30 g l−1). Strain DV1184T was able to ferment yeast extract, tryptone, peptone, glucose, sucrose, maltose and pyruvate. The main fermentation products from glucose were (in decreasing order) formate, acetate and ethanol. The genomic DNA G+C content was 29 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene located the strain within cluster XI of the lineage that encompasses the genus Clostridium and related genera in the bacterial domain. On the basis of 16S rDNA sequence comparison and physiological and biochemical characteristics, it is proposed that the isolate should be described as a novel species, Tepidibacter formicigenes sp. nov. The type strain is DV1184T (=CIP 107893T=DSM 15518T).

Streptococcus minor sp. nov., from faecal samples and tonsils of domestic animals
Nine isolates, which were obtained from tonsils, anal swabs and faeces of dogs and from tonsils of a cat and a calf, constituted a homogeneous but unidentified taxon after screening with tRNA intergenic length polymorphism analysis and whole-cell protein fingerprinting. 16S rDNA sequence analysis classified representative strains in the genus Streptococcus. Highest sequence similarity (95·9 %) was obtained with Streptococcus ovis. Growth characteristics, biochemical features, DNA–DNA hybridization and DNA G+C contents of selected strains demonstrated that they represent a single, novel streptococcal species. The name Streptococcus minor sp. nov. is proposed for the novel species; the type strain (ON59T=LMG 21734T=CCUG 47487T) was isolated from a dog tonsil.

Nocardiopsis aegyptia sp. nov., isolated from marine sediment
An actinomycete, strain SNG49T, was isolated from marine sediment of Abu Qir Bay, on the western seashore of Alexandria, Egypt. The bacterium was aerobic and Gram-positive. It produced beige to light-yellow aerial mycelium, brown substrate mycelium and straight to flexuous hyphae, but no specific spore chains. 16S rDNA sequence analysis and chemotaxonomic markers were consistent with classification of strain SNG49T in the genus Nocardiopsis, i.e. meso-diaminopimelic acid; no diagnostic sugars; phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylmethylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol as polar lipids; menaquinones of the MK-10 series from MK-10(H0) to MK-10(H8); and iso/anteiso-branched and 10-methyl-branched fatty acids, the principal fatty acids being anteiso-17 : 0 and tuberculostearic acid. Nocardiopsis lucentensis and Nocardiopsis alba are the phylogenetic neighbours of strain SNG49T, respectively showing 98·8 and 98·7 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity; however, moderate DNA–DNA reassociation values between these two species and strain SNG49T (44 and 60 %, respectively) showed that strain SNG49T could be clearly separated from them. These data, together with distinct physiological traits, led to the conclusion that this isolate represents a novel species within the genus Nocardiopsis, for which the name Nocardiopsis aegyptia is proposed. The type strain is SNG49T (=DSM 44442T=NRRL B-24244T).

Deinococcus indicus sp. nov., an arsenic-resistant bacterium from an aquifer in West Bengal, India
More LessAn arsenic- and radiation-resistant bacterium, strain Wt/1aT, was isolated from water from an arsenic-contaminated aquifer located in the Chakdah district of West Bengal, India. The bacterium stains Gram-negative and is rod-shaped, non-motile, non-sporulating and red-pigmented. Cell-wall peptidoglycan contains ornithine as the diamino acid, MK-8 is the major menaquinone, C15 : 1 and C16 : 1 are the major fatty acids and the DNA G+C content of the organism is 65·8 mol%. Based on these phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, strain Wt/1aT was identified as a member of the genus Deinococcus. Strain Wt/1aT exhibited maximum 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (95 %) with Deinococcus grandis; however, strain Wt/1aT exhibited only 14 % similarity to D. grandis IAM 13005T at the DNA–DNA level. Furthermore, strain Wt/1aT (compared to D. grandis IAM 13005T) is more resistant to arsenate and arsenite, is positive for arginine dihydrolase, utilizes a number of carbon sources and exhibits quantitative differences in fatty acid composition and qualitative differences in lipid composition. Strain Wt/1aT is identified as a novel species of the genus Deinococcus, for which the name Deinococcus indicus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Deinococcus indicus is Wt/1aT (=MTCC 4913T=DSM 15307T).

Genetic evidence that Weissella kimchii Choi et al. 2002 is a later heterotypic synonym of Weissella cibaria Björkroth et al. 2002
More LessThe taxonomic positions of Weissella kimchii and Weissella cibaria were examined using phenotypic tests, 16S rRNA gene sequencing and DNA–DNA hybridization. The two species displayed very similar sugar-fermentation patterns and produced the d-form of lactic acid. Phylogenetic analysis showed that W. cibaria is the closest neighbour of W. kimchii, sharing about 99·7 % similarity in the 16S rRNA gene sequence. DNA–DNA hybridization experiments further reinforced these results, demonstrating a 98·2 % reassociation level between W. cibaria LMG 17699T and W. kimchii DSM 14295T. On the other hand, strain RO5, an isolate from paddy rice silage, exhibited 99·4 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity and a DNA reassociation level of more than 97 % with both type strains. Therefore, it is proposed that the species W. kimchii should be reclassified as W. cibaria.

Isolation from oil reservoirs of novel thermophilic anaerobes phylogenetically related to Thermoanaerobacter subterraneus: reassignment of T. subterraneus, Thermoanaerobacter yonseiensis, Thermoanaerobacter tengcongensis and Carboxydibrachium pacificum to Caldanaerobacter subterraneus gen. nov., sp. nov., comb. nov. as four novel subspecies
Novel thermophilic, anaerobic, Gram-positive, rod-shaped bacteria, strains SL9 and OCA1, were isolated from oilfields in France and Australia, respectively. Both strains, together with Thermoanaerobacter yonseiensis KB-1T (=DSM 13777T), Thermoanaerobacter tengcongensis MB4T (=DSM 15242T) and Carboxydibrachium pacificum JMT (=DSM 12653T), possessed genomic (DNA–DNA hybridization studies) and phylogenetic similarities with Thermoanaerobacter subterraneus SEBR 7858T (=DSM 13054T), which was isolated recently from an oilfield reservoir in south-west France. Marked phenotypic differences exist between the three oilfield isolates (T. subterraneus, strain OCA1 and strain SL9): they include temperature range for growth and substrates used. Differences were also observed in the DNA G+C contents of all organisms. Similarly to T. subterraneus, strains SL9 and OCA1, and also T. yonseiensis, T. tengcongensis and Carboxydibrachium pacificum, produced acetate and l-alanine as major end products of glucose metabolism [0·8–1·0 mol l-alanine produced (mol glucose consumed)−1] and reduced thiosulfate, but not sulfate, to sulfide. Because of these significant metabolic and phylogenetic differences between the oilfield isolates (T. subterraneus, strain OCA1 and strain SL9), T. yonseiensis, T. tengcongensis and Carboxydibrachium pacificum and other Thermoanaerobacter species, it is proposed to reassign them as a novel genus and species, Caldanaerobacter subterraneus gen. nov., sp. nov., comb. nov., with the creation of four novel subspecies, Caldanaerobacter subterraneus subsp. subterraneus subsp. nov., comb. nov., Caldanaerobacter subterraneus subsp. yonseiensis subsp. nov., comb. nov., Caldanaerobacter subterraneus subsp. tengcongensis subsp. nov., comb. nov. and Caldanaerobacter subterraneus subsp. pacificus subsp. nov., comb. nov.

Microbacterium ulmi sp. nov., a xylanolytic, phosphate-solubilizing bacterium isolated from sawdust of Ulmus nigra
A xylanolytic and phosphate-solubilizing bacterium isolated from sawdust of Ulmus nigra in Salamanca was characterized by a polyphasic approach. The novel strain, designated XIL02T, was Gram-positive, aerobic, catalase- and oxidase-negative, rod-shaped and non-motile. Phylogenetically and chemotaxonomically, it was related to members of the genus Microbacterium. According to 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, it is closely related to Microbacterium arborescens and Microbacterium imperiale; however, DNA–DNA hybridization showed reassociation values less than 70 % with the type strains of these species. In chemotaxonomic analyses, the major menaquinones detected were MK-12, MK-13 and MK-11 and the major fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0; the peptidoglycan was of the type B2β. The G+C content determined was 69 mol%. Based on the present data, it is proposed that strain XIL02T (=LMG 20991T=CECT 5976T) be classified as the type strain of a novel Microbacterium species, for which the name Microbacterium ulmi sp. nov. is proposed.

Yania halotolerans gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel member of the suborder Micrococcineae from saline soil in China
A novel coccoid, halotolerant actinobacterium, designated strain YIM 70085T, was isolated from a soil sample that was collected in Xinjiang Province, China, and characterized by using a polyphasic approach. Optimum growth temperature was 28 °C and growth occurred optimally in culture media that contained 10 % KCl. The peptidoglycan type was A4α, l-lys–gly–l-Glu. Whole-cell sugars consisted of xylose, mannose and galactose. Phospholipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, one unknown phospholipid, one unknown glycolipid and traces of phosphatidylinositol. Menaquinones were MK-8 (83 %), MK-7 (12 %) and MK-9 (15 %). Predominant fatty acids were i-C15 : 0 (44·29 %), ai-C15 : 0 (35·60 %) and ai-C17 : 0 (9·74 %). The DNA G+C content was 53·5 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain YIM 70085T occupies a branch that is distinct from, although very close to, the family Micrococcaceae in the suborder Micrococcineae. Based on its phenotypic characteristics, phylogenetic position (as determined by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis) and 16S rDNA signature nucleotide data, it is concluded that the isolate represents a novel member of the suborder Micrococcineae, for which the name Yania halotolerans gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YIM 70085T (=CCTCC AA001023T=DSM 15476T).

Cellulomonas xylanilytica sp. nov., a cellulolytic and xylanolytic bacterium isolated from a decayed elm tree
More LessA Gram-positive, aerobic, non-motile bacterium was isolated from a decayed elm tree. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rDNA sequences revealed 99·0 % similarity to Cellulomonas humilata. Chemotaxonomic data that were determined for this isolate included cell-wall composition, fatty acid profiles and polar lipids; the results supported the placement of strain XIL11T in the genus Cellulomonas. The DNA G+C content was 73 mol%. The results of DNA–DNA hybridization with C. humilata ATCC 25174T, in combination with chemotaxonomic and physiological data, demonstrated that isolate XIL11T should be classified as a novel Cellulomonas species. The name Cellulomonas xylanilytica sp. nov. is proposed, with strain XIL11T (=LMG 21723T=CECT 5729T) as the type strain.

Reclassification of Lactobacillus kefirgranum Takizawa et al. 1994 as Lactobacillus kefiranofaciens subsp. kefirgranum subsp. nov. and emended description of L. kefiranofaciens Fujisawa et al. 1988
Fourteen homofermentative lactic acid bacteria that were isolated from kefir grains and kefir fermented milks were assigned to either Lactobacillus kefiranofaciens or Lactobacillus kefirgranum, based on their characteristic morphotypes, phenotypic features and SDS-PAGE profiles of whole-cell proteins. Further genotypic analyses on representative strains from both taxa demonstrated that L. kefiranofaciens and L. kefirgranum share 100 % 16S rDNA sequence similarity and belong phylogenetically to the Lactobacillus acidophilus species group. DNA–DNA binding values of >79 % and analogous DNA G+C contents of 37–38 mol% showed that the strains studied belonged to one species: L. kefirgranum is a later synonym of L. kefiranofaciens. An emended description is proposed for L. kefiranofaciens. Due to the specific morphological and biochemical characteristics of these taxa in kefir grain formation, it is proposed that L. kefirgranum should be reclassified as L. kefiranofaciens subsp. kefirgranum subsp. nov.

Xylanibacterium ulmi gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel xylanolytic member of the family Promicromonosporaceae
A bacterial strain designated XIL08T was isolated from an elm tree affected by Dutch elm disease. Strain XIL08T is Gram-positive, aerobic, rod-shaped and non-motile. The complete 16S rDNA sequence of this micro-organism was obtained and phylogenetic analysis based on the neighbour-joining method indicated that the closest related organism belongs to the genus Xylanimonas of the family Promicromonosporaceae, suborder Micrococcineae. Cell-wall analyses revealed the presence of type A4α, l-lys–l-ala–d-Glu peptidoglycan. The cell-wall sugars found were rhamnose in large amounts, fucose, mannose and galactose and traces of arabinose and glucose. HPLC analysis of menaquinones revealed two peaks, the main peak corresponding to MK-9(H4) and the smaller one to MK-8(H4). The major fatty acid found was anteiso-C15 : 0. Mycolic acids were absent. The polar lipids detected were phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylinositol mannosides. The G+C content of the DNA was 72 mol%. Isolate XIL08T hydrolysed xylan but not cellulose. Growth was observed with many carbohydrates including acetate and xylan as the only carbon source. Catalase activity was not detected. The data from this polyphasic study suggest that this bacterium belongs to a novel genus of the family Promicromonosporaceae. It is proposed that isolate XIL08T (=LMG 21721T=CECT 5731T) be classified in a new genus, Xylanibacterium gen. nov., as the type strain of Xylanibacterium ulmi sp. nov.

Nocardia inohanensis sp. nov., Nocardia yamanashiensis sp. nov. and Nocardia niigatensis sp. nov., isolated from clinical specimens
More LessComparative 16S rDNA studies on six strains of actinomycete isolated from clinical specimens revealed that they belong to the genus Nocardia and are closely related to Nocardia seriolae, Nocardia otitidiscaviarum, Nocardia uniformis, Nocardia pseudobrasiliensis and Nocardia crassostreae. However, the novel organisms consistently formed a clade distinct from that of the five latter species. Determination of DNA–DNA relatedness indicated that these strains could be classified under three novel species. Based on their phenotypic and phylogenetic characters, three novel species of the genus Nocardia are established: Nocardia inohanensis sp. nov. for IFM 0092T (=NBRC 100128T=JCM 11891T=DSM 44667T), Nocardia yamanashiensis sp. nov. for IFM 0265T (=NBRC 100130T=JCM 11893T=DSM 44669T) and Nocardia niigatensis sp. nov. for IFM 0330T (=NBRC 100131T=JCM 11894T=DSM 44670T), IFM 0260, IFM 0636 and IFM 0833.
