An endophytic actinobacterium, strain TMS7T, was isolated from the stem of a Thai medicinal plant collected from the grounds of the Phujong-Nayoa National park, Ubon Ratchathani province, Thailand. As a result of a polyphasic taxonomy study, this strain was identified as a member of the genus Micromonospora . This strain was a Gram-stain-positive, aerobic actinobacterium with well-developed substrate mycelium with hyphae forming a single microspore was non-motile. Stran TMS7T was identified according to its 16S rRNA gene sequence as a new member of the genus Micromonospora . The closest phylogenetic members sharing a similarity were Micromonospora chersina DSM 44151T at 99.4 % and Micromonospora rosaria DSM 803T, Micromonospora tulbaghiae TVU1T, Micromonospora inositola DSM 43819T and Micromonospora endolithica DSM 44398T all at 99.2 %. Chemotaxonomic data including cell wall components, major menaquinones and major fatty acids confirmed the affiliation of strain TMS7T to the genus Micromonospora . The results of the phylogenetic analysis, addition to physiological and biochemical studies in combination with DNA–DNA hybridization, allowed the genotypic and phenotypic differentiation of strain TMS7T and the most closely related species with validly published names. The name proposed for the novel species is Micromonospora terminaliae sp. nov. The type strain is TMS7T (=DSM 101760T=NRRL B-65345T).

A novel strain belonging to the genus Promicromonospora , designated HM 533T, was isolated from soil in Kerman Province, Iran. It produced long and branched hyphae on ISP 2 medium that developed into a large number of irregular-shaped spores. It showed optimal growth at 25–30 °C and pH 5.0–8.0 with 0–4 % (w/v) NaCl. The peptidoglycan type of strain HM 533T was A4α l-Lys–l-Ala–d-Glu. Whole-cell hydrolysates of strain HM 533T contained the sugars ribose, glucose and galactose. The main phospholipids were phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, two unknown glycolipids and an unknown phospholipid. MK-9(H4) and MK-9(H2) were the predominant menaquinones. The fatty acids pattern was mainly composed of the saturated branched-chain acids anteiso-C15 : 0 and iso-C15 : 0. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed the highest pairwise sequence identity (99.5–97.1 %) with the members of the genus Promicromonospora . Based on phenotypic and genotypic features, strain HM 533T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Promicromonospora , for which the name Promicromonospora kermanensis is proposed with strain HM 533T (=DSM 45485T=UTMC 00533T=CECT 8709T) as the type strain.

A novel endophytic actinomycete with antifungal activity, designated strain NEAU-JXY5T, was isolated from the root of Parathelypteris beddomei (Bak.) Ching.

The peptidoglycan contained glutamic acid, aspartic acid, alanine and lysine, with the last named being the diagnostic diamino acid. The cell-wall acyl type was acetyl. The major polar lipids of the isolate were phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositolmannoside, two unknown phospholipids and an unknown phosphoglycolipid. Whole-cell sugars of the isolate were galactose, glucose and ribose. The DNA G+C content of the genomic DNA was 75.2 mol%. Based on the results of phylogenetic, physiological and biochemical analyses and DNA–DNA hybridization experiments, the isolate was considered to represent a novel species of a new genus in the family Promicromonosporaceae , for which the name Krasilnikoviella muralis gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Krasilnikoviella muralis is T6220-5-2bT (=JCM 28789T=NCIMB 15040T).

The aim of this study was to reclarify the taxonomic relationship among Streptomyces hygroscopicus subsp. hygroscopicus , Streptomyces endus and Streptomyces sporocinereus . Whole genome shotgun sequencing was performed for the type strains of these three taxa. Average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values among the three taxa were greater than the thresholds for bacterial species delineation, indicating that they belong to the same genomospecies. In addition, the phenotypic data previously reported also support the synonymy. Therefore, S. endus and S. sporocinereus should be reclassified as later heterotypic synonyms of S. hygroscopicus subsp. hygroscopicus .

A Gram-stain-positive, non-spore-forming actinobacterium, strain 9H-4T, isolated from the choana of a garden warbler (Sylvia borin) was studied to examine its taxonomic position.

DNA–DNA hybridizations confirmed its novel species identity based on 39 and 46 % DNA–DNA relatedness with A. flavum DSM 19355T and A. tamlense DSM 19087T, respectively. The predominant menaquinone of strain 9H-4T was MK-9(H4). The peptidoglycan contained ll-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid.

The DNA G+C content of strain 9H-4T was 70.8 mol%. The distinct genotypic, chemotaxonomic, physiological and biochemical characteristics support the classification of strain 9H-4T as a representative of a novel species of the genus Aeromicrobium , for which the name Aeromicrobium choanae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 9H-4T (=ZIM B1021T=LMG 29165T=CCM 8650T).
