abstract= The crude-oil-degrading strain BAS3T represents a novel Nocardioides species, according to a taxonomic study. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain BAS3T was most similar to that of Nocardioides ganghwensis (IMSNU 14028T; 99 % similarity), but the DNA–DNA relatedness to this type strain was only 32 %. The physiological properties of strain BAS3T differ from those of N. ganghwensis (IMSNU 14028T) and other species of Nocardioides. The diamino acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan of strain BAS3T is ll-diaminopimelic acid and the major menaquinone is MK-8(H4). The name Nocardioides oleivorans sp. nov. is proposed for the novel Nocardioides species, since its type strain, BAS3T (=DSM 16090T=NCIMB 14004T), is able to degrade crude oil.,
