A Novel Actinomycete from Sugar-cane Bagasse: gen. et sp. nov Free

Abstract

SUMMARY: A new species of nocardioform actinomycete isolated from spontaneously heated sugarcane bagasse is described as gen. et sp. nov. It has affinities with species of both Nocardia and Actinomadura but can be distinguished from both genera by its morphology, sporulation, wall and lipid analyses, antibiotic resistance, degradation and carbon utilization tests.
