Abstract

A Gram-stain-positive, non-spore-forming actinobacterial strain, designated CPCC 204077, was isolated from the surface-sterilized root of a medicinal plant (Thunb.) collected from Sichuan Province, south-west China. The peptidoglycan type of strain CPCC 204077 was detected as A4α with an -Lys–-Ser–-Asp interpeptide bridge. Galactose, glucose, rhamnose and ribose were the sugar compositions in the whole-cell hydrolysates. MK-8(H) was the only menaquinone. The polar lipid profile consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, one unidentified phospholipid and one unidentified glycolipid. The major fatty acid was iso-C. The genomic DNA G+C content was 71.0 mol%. The phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain CPCC 204077 stood for a distinct lineage within the family alongside the genera , and , with the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities to Mer 29717 (95.0 %), PC IW02 (95.0 %), 39 (94.9 %) and HKI 0089 (94.7 %), and less than 94.7 % sequence similarities to all other species. Signature nucleotides in the 16S rRNA sequence showed that the strain contained the family-specific 16S rRNA signature nucleotides and a genus-specific diagnostic nucleotide signature pattern. Combining the genotypic and phenotypic analyses, we propose that strain CPCC 204077 represents a novel species of a new genus in the family with the name gen. nov., sp. nov. Strain CPCC 204077 (=NBRC 110719=DSM 29531) is the type strain of the type species.
