During our previous study, strain NEAU-J3T was classified as representing a novel genus ‘ Wangella ’ within the family Micromonosporaceae . Nevertheless, it is a great pity the name cannot be validated as the proposed genus name is illegitimate (Principle 2 of the ICNP). In this study, we describe Jidongwangia as a novel genus within the family Micromonosporaceae and a polyphasic approach was used to provide evidence to support the classification. The G+C content of the genomic DNA of the type strain is 71.6 %. Digital DNA–DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity (ANI) values could be used to differentiate NEAU-J3T from its related type strains. The phenotypic, genetic and chemotaxonomic data also indicated that NEAU-J3T occupies a branch separated from those of known genera in the family Micromonosporaceae . Therefore, NEAU-J3T represents a novel species of a novel genus in the family Micromonosporaceae , for which the name Jidongwangia harbinensis gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Jidongwangia harbinensis is NEAU-J3T (= CGMCC 4.7039T = DSM 45747T).
A Gram-stain-positive, aerobic actinobacterium, designated strain NEAU-24T, was isolated from saline-alkali soil collected from Daqing City, Heilongjiang Province, PR China. Strain NEAU-24T was found to produce abundant substrate mycelia but no aerial hyphae. The substrate mycelia formed irregular pseudosporangia consisting of nuciform spores, and the surface of the spores was smooth. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain NEAU-24T clustered with Pseudosporangium ferrugineum 3-44-a(19)T, Couchioplanes caeruleus subsp. azureus DSM 44103T and C. caeruleus subsp. caeruleus DSM 43634T within the family Micromonosporaceae and was most closely related to P. ferrugineum 3-44-a(19)T (99.17 %). The strain contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as the cell-wall diamino acid and MK-9(H6) as the menaquinone. The whole cell sugar profile consisted of glucose, galactose, xylose and arabinose. The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified phospholipid, phosphatidylinositol and an unidentified lipid. The major fatty acids were summarized as C16 : 0, C15 : 0, C17 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 and iso-C17 : 0. The low digital DNA–DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values could differentiate strain NEAU-24T from its related type strains. The phenotypic, genetic and chemotaxonomic data also indicated that strain NEAU-24T occupied a branch separated from those of known genera in the family Micromonosporaceae. In addition, genomic analysis confirmed that strain NEAU-24T had the potential to produce chitinase. Therefore, strain NEAU-24T represents a novel species of a new genus and species in the family Micromonosporaceae, for which the name Nucisporomicrobium flavum gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Nucisporomicrobium flavum is NEAU-24T (=CCTCC AA 2020016T=JCM 33973T).
A novel lignin-degrading actinobacterium, designated NEAU-G5T, was isolated from pumpkin rhizosphere soil collected from field in Mudanjiang, Heilongjiang Province, northeast China, and characterized using polyphasic approach. The prior 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities and phylogenic analysis showed that strain NEAU-G5T exhibited close phylogenetic relatedness to Nocardia miyunensis NBRC 108239T (98.82 %), Nocardia nova NBRC 15556T (98.75 %), Nocardia jiangxiensis NBRC 101359T (98.68 %) and Nocardia macrotermitis RB20T (98.61 %). Morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics indicated that strain NEAU-G5T could be assigned to the genus Nocardia . The polar lipids consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, an unidentified phospholipid and an unidentified lipid. The predominant menaquinone was MK-8(H4, ω-cycl). The major fatty acids (>10 %) were identified as C16 : 0, C18 : 1 ω9c, 10-methyl C18 : 0 and C18 : 0. Mycolic acids were present. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain NEAU-G5T was 68 mol%. Moreover, based on digital DNA–DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values, strain NEAU-G5T could be differentiated from its reference strains. In addition, an azure B plate decolorization test and genomic analysis indicated that strain NEAU-G5T had the ability to degrade lignin. On the basis of polyphasic characteristics, strain NEAU-G5T represents a novel species of the genus Nocardia , with the name Nocardia albiluteola sp. nov. The type strain is NEAU-G5T (=CCTCC AA 2021018T=DSM 110547T).
