Prauserella shujinwangii sp. nov., from a desert environment Liu, Mei and Zhang, Li and Ren, Biao and Yang, Na and Yu, Xiaoyun and Wang, Jian and Ding, Linxian and Liu, Xueting and Liu, Zhiheng and Goodfellow, Michael and Zhang, Lixin,, 64, 3833-3837 (2014), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/ijs.0.065425-0, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1466-5026, abstract= A Gram-positive, spore-forming, rod-shaped actinomycete, designated XJ46T, was isolated from Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, China and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic analysis. Morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics of XJ46T were identified as being similar to those of members of the genus Prauserella . The phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that XJ46T shared the highest similarity (95.9 %) with Prauserella marina MS498T. Based on its phenotypic characteristics, chemotaxonomic analysis and 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain XJ46T is proposed to represent a novel species of the genus Prauserella , named Prauserella shujinwangii sp. nov. The type strain is XJ46T ( = CGMCC 4.7125T = JCM 19736T)., language=, type=
