Abstract

A novel actinomycete, designated strain A31, was isolated from the surface of weathered biotite in Susong, Anhui Province, China. The organism grew optimally at 30 °C, at pH 8.0 and with 1 % (w/v) NaCl. Strain A31 had A3α as the cell-wall peptidoglycan type and galactose, mannose and rhamnose as whole-cell sugars. Anteiso-C and anteiso-C were the major cellular fatty acids and MK-9(H) was the predominant respiratory quinone. In addition, the total polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine and four glycolipids. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain A31 was 70.8 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain A31 was related most closely to LC13 (98.3 % similarity), DSM 20127 (98.2 %), CW 59 (98.1 %), CW 108 (97.8 %), ‘ ’ MPKL 26 (97.3 %), LC10 (97.1 %) and ‘’ SYP-B575 (96.7 %). DNA–DNA hybridization studies with the new isolate showed relatedness values of 16.0–56.6 % with its six closest neighbours. Based on phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic analysis, strain A31 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is A31 ( = DSM 28245 = CCTCC AB 2014068).
