Streptomyces cadmiisoli sp. nov., a novel actinomycete isolated from cadmium-contaminated soil Li, Kaiqin and Tang, Xinke and Zhao, Jiarong and Guo, Yihui and Tang, Yongjie and Gao, Jian,, 69, 1024-1029 (2019), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/ijsem.0.003262, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1466-5026, abstract= A novel Streptomyces strain, ZFG47T, isolated from a cadmium-contaminated soil sample, was taxonomically studied in detail. Strain ZFG47T formed long, flexuous spiral spore chains consisting of elliptoid spores with spiny surfaces. The cell-wall hydrolysates contained ll-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid. The major menaquinones consisted of MK-9(H2), MK-9(H4) and MK-9(H8). The major polar lipids contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol mannosides. The predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, C16 : 0 and anteiso-C15 : 0. The 16S rRNA gene sequence-based phylogenetic analysis indicated that this strain belongs to the genus Streptomyces , showing the highest sequence similarity to Streptomyces koyangensis VK-A60T (98.7 %). However, the digital DNA–DNA hybridization value, the average nucleotide identity value and the MLSA evolutionary distance between this strain and S. koyangensis VK-A60T showed that it belonged to a distinct species. Furthermore, the novel isolate could be distinctly differentiated from S. koyangensis VK-A60T by morphological, physiological and biochemical characteristics. On the basis of the evidence from this polyphasic study, it is concluded that strain ZFG47T represents a novel species of the genus Streptomyces , for which the name Streptomyces cadmiisoli sp. nov. is proposed, with strain ZFG47T (CICC 11050T=JCM 32897T) as the type strain., language=, type=
