A novel actinomycete, designated strain EURKPP3H10T, was isolated from surface-sterilized roots of Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehnh., collected from Kamphaengphet Silvicultural Research Station, Kamphaengphet province, Thailand. The taxonomic position of strain EURKPP3H10T was studied using a polyphasic approach. Phylogenetic evaluation based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain EURKPP3H10T belongs to the genus Cryptosporangium, with the highest sequence similarity to Cryptosporangium cibodasense LIPI11-2-Ac046T (99.2 %). Colonies of strain EURKPP3H10T were orange yellow. Spherical sporangia with motile spores were observed. The strain contained meso-diaminopimelic acid and acofriose, arabinose, galactose, glucose, mannose, xylose and ribose in whole-cell hydrolysates. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9(H8) and MK-9(H6). The major fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, C17 : 1ω8c, C18 : 1ω9c and C17 : 0. The polar lipids of the strain were phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol and unknown lipids. The DNA G+C content of the genomic DNA was 71.5 mol%. Based on comparative analysis of physiological, biochemical and chemotaxonomic data, including DNA-DNA hybridization, strain EURKPP3H10T represents a novel species of the genus Cryptosporangium, for which the name Cryptosporangium eucalypti sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is EURKPP3H10T (=BCC 77605T=NBRC 111482T).
A polyphasic approach was used to verify the novel actinomycete, strain 1SM4-01T, isolated from mangrove sediment collected from Ranong Province, Thailand. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the organism was a member of the genus Nonomuraea and was most closely related to Nonomuraea syzygii GKU 164T (98.7 % sequence similarity), Nonomuraea rhizophila YIM 67092T (98.4 %), Nonomuraea solani NEAU-Z6T (98.4 %), Nonomuraea monospora PT708T (98.3 %) and Nonomuraea thailandensis KC-061T (98.2 %). The strain produced branching aerial mycelium which differentiated into straight chains of rough-surfaced spores borne at the end of a short sporophore. The whole-cell hydrolysates contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid, with madurose, mannose and ribose as the main sugars. MK-9(H4) was a major menaquinone of this strain. The acyl type of peptidoglycan was N-acetyl. The predominant cellular fatty acids were C17 : 1ω8c and iso-C16 : 0. Phospholipids consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, hydroxy-phosphatidylethanolamine, hydroxy-phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol mannoside, aminophospholipids and unidentified lipids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 70.4 mol%. On the basis of phenotypic characteristics, DNA-DNA relatedness and phylogenetic distinctiveness, strain 1SM4-01T represents a novel species of the genus Nonomuraea, for which the name Nonomuraea purpurea sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 1SM4-01T (=BCC 60397T=NBRC 109647T).
A filamentous actinomycete, designated strain 1SS5-02T, was isolated from mangrove sediment collected from Ranong province, Thailand. The strain formed aerial and substrate mycelia composed of long, branched hyphae. Aerial mycelia differentiated into non-motile, rod-shaped spores. The organism contained meso-diaminopimelic acid and no diagnostic sugars in whole-cell hydrolysates. The predominant menaquinones were MK-11(H4), MK-11(H6) and MK-11(H8). Polar lipids comprised phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, two unidentified phospholipids and four unidentified lipids. The major fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, C18 : 1ω9c, 10-methyl C18 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 73.5 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain 1SS5-02T belonged to the genus Nocardiopsis. The strain showed the highest degree of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with 'Nocardiopsis mangrovei' HA11166 (97.9 %) and Nocardiopsis trehalosi VKM Ac-942T (97.8 %). However, strain 1SS5-02T could be distinguished from its nearest phylogenetic relatives in the genus Nocardiopsis on the basis of DNA-DNA relatedness values and the combination of phenotypic properties. On the basis of polyphasic taxonomy, strain 1SS5-02T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Nocardiopsis, for which the name Nocardiopsis sediminis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 1SS5-02T (=BCC 75410T=NBRC 110934T).
