Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that strain NEAU-LZC 7T belonged to the genus Lentzea , with highest sequence similarity to Lentzea violacea JCM 10975T (98.1 %). Morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics of the strain also supported its assignment to the genus Lentzea . However, DNA–DNA relatedness, physiological and biochemical data showed that strain NEAU-LZC 7T could be distinguished from its closest relative. Therefore, strain NEAU-LZC 7T represents a novel species of the genus Lentzea , for which the name Lentzea soli sp. nov. is proposed, with NEAU-LZC 7T (=CCTCC AA 2017027T=JCM 32384T) as the type strain., language=, type=
