Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain YIM 79486T should be assigned to the genus Laceyella and formed a monophyletic clade with the type strain Laceyella putida KCTC 3666T (98.7 % similarity). Strain YIM 79486T formed white aerial mycelium and brown substrate mycelium. Abundant endospores were produced on short sporophores. Cell-wall peptidoglycan contained meso-diaminopimelic acid. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9 and MK-8. The genomic DNA G+C content observed for strain YIM 79486T was 47.8 mol%. Based on low DNA–DNA hybridization data, chemotaxonomic characteristics and differential physiological properties, strain YIM 79486T is considered to represent a novel species within the genus Laceyella , for which the name Laceyella thermophila sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YIM 79486T (=CCTC AB 2015040T=NBRC 110772T).", }
