Abstract

A novel actinobacterium, designated strain NEAU-yn17, was isolated from a soil sample collected at the wastewater discharge site of a pesticide factory in Harbin, northern China, and characterized using a polyphasic approach. Morphological and chemotaxonomic properties of strain NEAU-yn17 were consistent with the description of the genus , such as the spore arrangement, the diamino acid of the peptidoglycan, the whole-cell hydrolysates, the predominant menaquinone and the phospholipid profile. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences demonstrated that strain NEAU-yn17 should also be classified in the genus , with DSM 45456 (99.52 % sequence similarity) and JCM 12329 (99.04 %) as the nearest phylogenetic relatives. A combination of DNA–DNA hybridization results and some phenotypic characteristics indicated that strain NEAU-yn17 can be distinguished from its closest relatives. Therefore, strain NEAU-yn17 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NEAU-yn17 ( = CGMCC 4.7097 = DSM 45878).
