Abstract
Hydrazidase from Microbacterium hydrocarbonoxydans was revealed to catalyze synthetic hydrazide compounds, enabling the bacteria to grow with them as a sole carbon source, but natural substrates have remained unknown. In this study, kinetic analyses of hydrazidase with parabens showed that the compounds can be substrates. Then, methylparaben induced gene expressions of the operon containing hydrazidase and ABC transporter, and the compound as a sole carbon source was able to grow the bacteria. Furthermore, homology search was carried out revealing that several actinomycetes possess hydrazidase homologs in the operon. Among those bacteria, an amidase from Pseudonocardia acaciae was subjected to a kinetic analysis and a structure determination revealing similar but not identical to those of hydrazidase. Since parabens are reported to exist in plants and soil, and several actinomycetes code the homologous operon, the enzymes with those operons may play a physiologically important role for bacterial survival with use of parabens.

Hnini M, Aurag J. Prevalence, diversity and applications potential of nodules endophytic bacteria: a systematic review. Front Microbiol 2024; 15:1386742.

Abstract
Legumes are renowned for their distinctive biological characteristic of forming symbiotic associations with soil bacteria, mostly belonging to the Rhizobiaceae familiy, leading to the establishment of symbiotic root nodules. Within these nodules, rhizobia play a pivotal role in converting atmospheric nitrogen into a plant-assimilable form. However, it has been discerned that root nodules of legumes are not exclusively inhabited by rhizobia; non-rhizobial endophytic bacteria also reside within them, yet their functions remain incompletely elucidated. This comprehensive review synthesizes available data, revealing that Bacillus and Pseudomonas are the most prevalent genera of nodule endophytic bacteria, succeeded by Paenibacillus, Enterobacter, Pantoea, Agrobacterium, and Microbacterium. To date, the bibliographic data available show that Glycine max followed by Vigna radiata, Phaseolus vulgaris and Lens culinaris are the main hosts for nodule endophytic bacteria. Clustering analysis consistently supports the prevalence of Bacillus and Pseudomonas as the most abundant nodule endophytic bacteria, alongside Paenibacillus, Agrobacterium, and Enterobacter. Although non-rhizobial populations within nodules do not induce nodule formation, their presence is associated with various plant growth-promoting properties (PGPs). These properties are known to mediate important mechanisms such as phytostimulation, biofertilization, biocontrol, and stress tolerance, emphasizing the multifaceted roles of nodule endophytes. Importantly, interactions between non-rhizobia and rhizobia within nodules may exert influence on their leguminous host plants. This is particularly shown by co-inoculation of legumes with both types of bacteria, in which synergistic effects on plant growth, yield, and nodulation are often measured. Moreover these effects are pronounced under both stress and non-stress conditions, surpassing the impact of single inoculations with rhizobia alone.

Habitat-related variability in the morphological and taxonomic diversity of microbial communities in two Hungarian epigenic karst caves. FEMS Microbiol Ecol 2023; 99:fiad161.

Abstract
The physical and chemical characteristics of the bedrock, along with the geological and hydrological conditions of karst caves may influence the taxonomic and functional diversity of prokaryotes. Most studies so far have focused on microbial communities of caves including only a few samples and have ignored the chemical heterogeneity of different habitat types such as sampling sites, dripping water, carbonate precipitates, cave walls, cave sediment and surface soils connected to the caves. The aim of the present study was to compare the morphology, the composition and physiology of the microbiota in caves with similar environmental parameters (temperature, host rock, elemental and mineral composition of speleothems) but located in different epigenic karst systems. Csodabogyós Cave and Baradla Cave (Hungary) were selected for the analysis of bacterial and archaeal communities using electron microscopy, amplicon sequencing, X-ray diffraction, and mass spectroscopic techniques. The microbial communities belonged to the phyla Pseudomonadota, Acidobacteriota, Nitrospirota and Nitrososphaerota, and they showed site-specific variation in composition and diversity. The results indicate that morphological and physiological adaptations provide survival for microorganisms according to the environment. In epigenic karst caves, prokaryotes are prone to increase their adsorption surface, cooperate in biofilms, and implement chemolithoautotrophic growth with different electron-donors and acceptors available in the microhabitats.

Abstract
A novel actinomycete, designated strain RS11V-5T, was isolated from rhizosphere soil of Oryza sativa L. collected from Roi Et Province, Thailand, and its taxonomic position was evaluated. Cells of strain RS11V-5T were Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, and non-motile. Whole-cell hydrolysates contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, arabinose, galactose, glucose and ribose. MK-8(H4) was detected as the predominant menaquinone of this strain. The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylmethylethanolamine, phosphatidylethanolamine, hydroxy-phosphatidylmethylethanolamine, hydroxy-phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified phospholipid, an unidentified aminolipid and an unidentified glycolipid. The major fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, C16 : 0 and C16 : 1 ω7c/C16 : 1 ω6c. Phylogenetic analyses based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain RS11V-5T belonged to the genus
Pseudonocardia
and had high 16S rRNA sequence similarity of 99.3 % to
Pseudonocardia kujensis
KCTC 29062T and less than 98.4 % to other members of the genus
Pseudonocardia
. The DNA G+C content of the strain RS11V-5T was 73.3 mol%. Strain RS11V-5T showed 46.5 % digital DNA–DNA hybridization, 92.2 % orthologous average nucleotide identity (OrthoANI), 90.2 % ANI based on blast and 92.7 % ANI based on MUMmer to
P. kujensis
KCTC 29062T. Based its phenotypic, genotypic, phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, strain RS11V-5T represents a novel species of the genus
Pseudonocardia
, for which the name Pseudonocardia terrae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is RS11V-5T (=TBRC 15286T=NBRC 115296T).

Abstract
The genus Pseudonocardia belongs to a group of Actinomycetes, and is a member of the family Pseudonocardiacea. The members of this genus are aerobic, Gram-positive, non-motile bacteria that are commonly found in soil, plant and environment. Although this genus has a low clinical significance; however, it has an important role in biotechnology due to the production of secondary metabolites, some of which have anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-tumour effects. The use of phenotypic tests, such as gelatinase activity, starch hydrolysis, catalase and oxidase tests, as well as molecular methods, such as polymerase chain reaction, are necessary for Pseudonocardia identification at the genus and species levels.

Abstract
An aerobic, non-motile, Gram-stain positive actinomycete, designated strain NEAU-YY211T, was isolated from the rhizosphere soil of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) collected from Zhumadian, Henan Province, mid-eastern China, and characterised taxonomically using a polyphasic approach. Comparative analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that strain NEAU-YY211T belongs to the genus Pseudonocardia, showing high similarities with respect to Pseudonocardia ammonioxydans H9T (99.1%) and Pseudonocardia antitumoralis SCSIO 01299T (99.0%), respectively. The cell wall was found to contain meso-diaminopimelic acid and the whole cell sugars were identified as arabinose and galactose. The predominant menaquinone of strain NEAU-YY211T was identified as MK-8(H4) and the major fatty acids were identified as iso-C16:0, C17:1ω8c and iso-C16:1. The phospholipid profile was found to consist of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylmethylethanolamine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol and an unidentified phospholipid. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was determined to be 72.6 mol%. Levels of DNA-DNA relatedness with P. ammonioxydans JCM 12462T and P. antitumoralis DSM 45322T were 54.5 ± 3.5% and 49.8 ± 2.5% (mean ± SD), respectively. Based on phylogenetic analysis, phenotypic and genotypic data, it is concluded that the isolate can be distinguished from closely related type strains and thus represents a novel species of the genus Pseudonocardia, for which the name Pseudonocardia tritici sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NEAU-YY211T (= DSM 106068T = CGMCC 4.7474T).

Abstract
Plant growth promoting (PGP) bacteria are involved in various interactions known to affect plant fitness and soil quality, thereby increasing the productivity of agriculture and stability of soil. Although the potential of actinobacteria in antibiotic production is well-investigated, their capacity to enhance plant growth is not fully surveyed. Due to the following justifications, PGP actinobacteria (PGPA) can be considered as a more promising taxonomical group of PGP bacteria: (1) high numbers of actinobacteria per gram of soil and their filamentous nature, (2) genome dedicated to the secondary metabolite production (~5 to 10 %) is distinctively more than that of other bacteria and (3) number of plant growth promoter genera reported from actinobacteria is 1.3 times higher than that of other bacteria. Mechanisms by which PGPA contribute to the plant growth by association are: (a) enhancing nutrients availability, (b) regulation of plant metabolism, (c) decreasing environmental stress, (d) control of phytopathogens and (e) improvement of soil texture. Taxonomical and chemical diversity of PGPA and their biotechnological application along with their associated challenges are summarized in this paper.

Abstract
A Gram-stain-positive, aerobic actinomycete, designated strain YIM M13141(T), was isolated from a marine sediment sample from the South China Sea, and its taxonomic position was determined using a polyphasic approach. The strain produced branched substrate mycelium and aerial hyphae, but no diffusible pigments were produced on the media tested. At maturity, substrate mycelium was fragmented and spore chains were formed on aerial hyphae and substrate mycelium. Optimum growth occurred at 28 °C, 1-3% (w/v) NaCl and pH 7.0. Comparative analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that the isolate belongs to the genus Pseudonocardia, showing highest levels of similarity with respect to Pseudonocardia sichuanensis KLBMP 1115(T) (97.1%), Pseudonocardia tetrahydrofuranoxydans K1(T) (97.1%) and Pseudonocardia kunmingensis YIM 63158(T) (97.0%). Whole-organism hydrolysates of the strain contained meso-diaminopimelic acid and the sugars galactose, glucose, mannose and arabinose. The predominant menaquinone was MK-8(H4). The polar lipids detected were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylmethylethanolamine, phosphatidylethanolamine, two unknown phosphoglycolipids and two glycolipids. The major fatty acid was iso-C16 : 0. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 73.1 mol%. DNA-DNA relatedness with P. tetrahydrofuranoxydans DSM 44239(T) was 42.8 ± 3.5% (mean±sd). Based on phylogenetic analysis, phenotypic and genotypic data, it is concluded that the isolate represents a novel species of the genus Pseudonocardia, for which the name Pseudonocardia sediminis sp. nov. is proposed.

Abstract
In recent years, new actinobacterial species have been isolated as endophytes of plants and shrubs and are sought after both for their role as potential producers of new drug candidates for the pharmaceutical industry and as biocontrol inoculants for sustainable agriculture. Molecular-based approaches to the study of microbial ecology generally reveal a broader microbial diversity than can be obtained by cultivation methods. This study aimed to improve the success of isolating individual members of the actinobacterial population as pure cultures as well as improving the ability to characterise the large numbers obtained in pure culture. To achieve this objective, our study successfully employed rational and holistic approaches including the use of isolation media with low concentrations of nutrients normally available to the microorganism in the plant, plating larger quantities of plant sample, incubating isolation plates for up to 16 weeks, excising colonies when they are visible and choosing Australian endemic trees as the source of the actinobacteria. A hierarchy of polyphasic methods based on culture morphology, amplified 16S rRNA gene restriction analysis and limited sequencing was used to classify all 576 actinobacterial isolates from leaf, stem and root samples of two eucalypts: a Grey Box and Red Gum, a native apricot tree and a native pine tree. The classification revealed that, in addition to 413 Streptomyces spp., isolates belonged to 16 other actinobacterial genera: Actinomadura (two strains), Actinomycetospora (six), Actinopolymorpha (two), Amycolatopsis (six), Gordonia (one), Kribbella (25), Micromonospora (six), Nocardia (ten), Nocardioides (11), Nocardiopsis (one), Nonomuraea (one), Polymorphospora (two), Promicromonospora (51), Pseudonocardia (36), Williamsia (two) and a novel genus Flindersiella (one). In order to prove novelty, 12 strains were characterised fully to the species level based on polyphasic taxonomy. One strain represented a novel genus in the family Nocardioides, and the other 11 strains were accepted as novel species. In summary, the holistic isolation strategies were successful in obtaining significant culturable actinobacterial diversity within Australian native trees that includes rare and novel species.

Abstract
Endophytic actinobacteria colonize internal tissues of their host plants and are considered as a rich and reliable source of diverse species and functional microorganisms. In this study, endophytic actinobacterial strain YIM 63111 was isolated from surface-sterilized tissue of the medicinal plant Artemisia annua. We identified strain YIM 63111 as a member of the genus Pseudonocardia. A. annua seedlings grown under both sterile and greenhouse conditions were inoculated with strain YIM 63111. The growth of A. annua seedlings was strongly reduced when YIM 63111 was inoculated at higher concentrations under sterile conditions. However, no growth inhibition was observed when A. annua was grown under greenhouse conditions. Using an enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) expressing YIM 63111 strain, we also observed the endophytic colonization of A. annua seedling using confocal laser-scanning microscopy. The transcription levels of the key genes involved in artemisinin biosynthesis were investigated using real time RT-PCR, revealing that cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (CYP71AV1) and cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (CPR) expression were up-regulated in A. annua upon inoculation with strain YIM 63111 under certain conditions. The up-regulation of these genes was associated with the increased accumulation of artemisinin. These results suggest that endophytic actinobacteria effectively stimulate certain plant defense responses. Our data also demonstrate the use of Pseudonocardia sp. strain YIM 63111 as a promising means to enhance artemisinin production in plants.

Abstract
A novel actinomycete, designated PA3(T), was isolated from an oil refinery wastewater treatment plant, located in Palos de la Frontera, Huelva, Spain, and characterized taxonomically by using a polyphasic approach. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the isolate formed a distinct subclade in the Pseudonocardia tree together with Pseudonocardia asaccharolytica DSM 44247(T). The chemotaxonomic properties of the isolate, for example, the presence of MK-8 (H(4)) as the predominant menaquinone and iso-C(16:0) as the major fatty acid, are consistent with its classification in the genus Pseudonocardia. DNA:DNA pairing experiments between the isolate and the type strain of P. asaccharolytica DSM 44247(T) showed that they belonged to separate genomic species. The two strains were readily distinguished using a combination of phenotypic properties. Consequently, it is proposed that isolate PA3(T) represents a novel species for which the name Pseudonocardia hispaniensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is PA3(T) (= CCM 8391(T) = CECT 8030(T)).

Abstract
A novel actinomycete strain, designated YIM 63587T, was isolated from surface-sterilized roots of Artemisia annua L. collected from Yunnan province, south-west China. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain YIM 63587T was affiliated to the genus Pseudonocardia. 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities between strain YIM 63587T and type strains of species of the genus Pseudonocardia were 96.6–93.8 %. The diagnostic cell-wall diamino acid in the peptidoglycan layer of strain YIM 63587T was meso-diaminopimelic acid and the whole-cell sugars were arabinose, galactose, mannose and ribose. The predominant menaquinone was MK-8(H4) (97.7 %). The phospholipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylmethylethanolamine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol mannosides, phosphatidylinositol and an unknown phospholipid. The major cellular fatty acids (>5 %) were iso-C16 : 0 (44.7 %), iso-C14 : 0 (10.3 %), iso-C16 : 1 H (9.8 %) and iso-C15 : 0 (7.7 %). The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 68.2 mol%. On the basis of phylogenetic, physiological and chemotaxonomic data, strain YIM 63587T represents a novel species of the genus Pseudonocardia, for which the name Pseudonocardia artemisiae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YIM 63587T ( = DSM 45313T = CCTCC AA 208081T).

Abstract
Two actinomycetes, designated MN08-A0270T and MN08-A0297T, were isolated from soil from the area around Khuvsgul Lake, Khuvsgul province, Mongolia, and subjected to phenotypic and genotypic characterization. They produced well-developed, branched substrate hyphae and, similar to closely related species of the genus Pseudonocardia, produced zigzag-shaped aerial hyphae by acropetal budding and blastospores. A comparative analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strains MN08-A0270T and MN08-A0297T formed two distinct clades within the genus Pseudonocardia and were respectively most closely related to Pseudonocardia yunnanensis NBRC 15681T (97.3 % similarity) and Pseudonocardia thermophila IMSNU 20112T (97.1 %). Chemotaxonomic characteristics, including cell-wall diaminopimelic acid, whole-cell sugars, fatty acid components and major menaquinones, suggested that the two organisms belonged to the genus Pseudonocardia. Strains MN08-A0270T and MN08-A0297T could be differentiated from each other and from closely related species of the genus Pseudonocardia by physiological and biochemical characteristics, predominant fatty acids, menaquinones and whole-cell sugar components. Combined with the results of a broad range of phenotypic tests and DNA–DNA hybridization data and phylogenetic analysis, these results support the conclusion that these strains represent two novel species of the genus Pseudonocardia, for which we propose the names Pseudonocardia mongoliensis sp. nov. (type strain MN08-A0270T = NBRC 105885T = VTCC D9-25T) and Pseudonocardia khuvsgulensis sp. nov. (type strain MN08-A0297T = NBRC 105886T = VTCC D9-26T).

Abstract
A novel strain, designated EUM 374T, was isolated from the root of a native Australian eucalyptus tree, Eucalyptus microcarpa, and subjected to a range of morphological, phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic analyses. The strain was Gram-reaction-positive with well-developed aerial mycelia, which fragmented into rod-shaped spores that had unique knobby protrusions on the spore surface. Substrate mycelia were not present in the media used. Strain EUM 374T grew as a film on the surface of static liquid culture medium but did not grow under shaking conditions. Phylogenetic evaluation based on 16S rRNA gene sequences identified the new isolate as belonging to the family Pseudonocardiaceae with sequence similarities of 96.1 and 96.3 % to Pseudonocardia acaciae GMKU095T and Pseudonocardia spinosispora LM 141T, respectively, and 93–96 % sequence similarity to other members of the genus Pseudonocardia. The results of comprehensive phylogenetic analyses, including physiological and biochemical tests, differentiated strain EUM 374T from related members of the genus Pseudonocardia. Based on the phenotypic, phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic evidence, strain EUM 374T represents a novel species of the genus Pseudonocardia, for which the name Pseudonocardia eucalypti sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is EUM 374T ( = DSM 45351T = ACM 5285T).

Abstract
A novel strain, designated YIM 61452T, was isolated from the stem of Maytenus austroyunnanensis collected from the tropical rainforest of Xishuangbanna, Yunnan Province, south-west China. The strain was characterized taxonomically by using a polyphasic approach. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain YIM 61452T belonged to the genus Pseudonocardia and was most closely related to Pseudonocardia alni IMSNU 20049T (99.5 %), Pseudonocardia antarctica DVS 5a1T (99.5 %) and Pseudonocardia carboxydivorans Y8T (99.4 %). The chemotaxonomic properties of strain YIM 61452T, for example MK-8(H4) as the predominant quinone system and iso-C16 : 0 and iso-C16 : 1 H as the major fatty acids, were also consistent with its classification within the genus Pseudonocardia. Strain YIM 61452T could be differentiated from closely related species of the genus Pseudonocardia by phenotypic and genotypic analysis. DNA–DNA hybridization experiments between strain YIM 61452T and closely related reference strains further confirmed that strain YIM 61452T represented a novel taxon of the genus Pseudonocardia. Therefore, strain YIM 61452T represents a novel species, for which the name Pseudonocardia tropica sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YIM 61452T (=DSM 45199T=CCTCC AA 208018T).

Abstract
A Gram-positive, aerobic, actinobacterial strain with rod-shaped spores, designated YIM 63158(T), was isolated from the surface-sterilized roots of Artemisia annua L. collected from Yunnan province, south-west China. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain YIM 63158(T) belonged to the genus Pseudonocardia. The closest neighbours were 'Pseudonocardia sichuanensis' KLBMP 1115 (99.9 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), Pseudonocardia adelaidensis EUM 221(T) (99.1 %) and Pseudonocardia zijingensis DSM 44774(T) (98.8 %); sequence similarities to other members of the genus Pseudonocardia ranged from 98.6 to 94.4 %. The chemotaxonomic characteristics, such as the cell-wall diaminopimelic acid, whole-cell sugars, fatty acid components and major menaquinones, suggested that the isolate belonged to the genus Pseudonocardia. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 73.3 mol%. On the basis of physiological, biochemical and chemotaxonomic data, including low DNA-DNA relatedness between the isolate and other members of the genus Pseudonocardia, it is proposed that strain YIM 63158(T) represents a novel species in this genus, with the name Pseudonocardia kunmingensis sp. nov. The type strain is YIM 63158(T) ( = DSM 45301(T) = CCTCC AA 208078(T)). [corrected].

Abstract
A novel actinomycete, designated strain VN05A0561T, was isolated from plant litter collected at Ba Be National Park, Vietnam. The substrate mycelia and spore chains fragmented in a manner similar to nocardioform actinomycetes; the spores had smooth surfaces and were rod-shaped. Strain VN05A0561T had the following chemotaxonomic characteristics: meso-diaminopimelic acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan, arabinose and galactose as characteristic sugars, MK-8(H4) as the major isoprenoid quinone, phosphatidylcholine as the diagnostic phospholipid and iso-C16 : 0 as the major cellular fatty acid. Strain VN05A0561T shared low levels of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (<97 %) with the type strains of recognized species of the genus Pseudonocardia and could be differentiated from its closest phylogenetic relatives based on phenotypic characteristics. These results suggested that strain VN05A0561T represents a novel species of the genus Pseudonocardia, for which the name Pseudonocardia babensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is VN05A0561T (=VTCC-A-1757T=NBRC 105793T).

Abstract
A novel isolate, designated strain KLBMP 1115(T) was isolated from the surface-sterilized root of oil-seed plant Jatropha curcas L. collected from Sichuan Province, south-west China. Characterization of the isolate was based on a polyphasic approach. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain KLBMP 1115(T) belongs to the phylogenetic cluster of the genus Pseudonocardia and was most closely related to Pseudonocardia adelaidensis EUM 221(T) (98.9%) and Pseudonocardia zijingensis DSM 44774(T) (98.6%), whereas the DNA-DNA relatedness values between strain KLBMP 1115(T) and the two type strains were 47.3 and 39.7%, respectively. Levels of lower similarities to the type strains of other recognized Pseudonocardia species ranged from 94.4 to 98.4%. The diagnostic diamino acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan was meso-diaminopimelic acid. The predominant respiratory quinone was MK-8(H(4)). The major fatty acids of strain KLBMP 1115(T) was iso-C(16:0). The chemotaxonomic properties of strain KLBMP 1115(T) were consistent with those shared by members of the genus Pseudonocardia. On the basis of the phenotypic features and the DNA-DNA hybridization data, strain KLBMP 1115(T) represents a novel species of the genus Pseudonocardia, for which the name Pseudonocardia sichuanensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KLBMP 1115(T) (=KCTC 19781(T) = CCTCC AA 2010002(T)).

Abstract
The novel strain GMKU 370(T) was isolated from roots of a Thai jasmine rice plant (Oryza sativa L. 'KDML 105') collected from Pathum Thani Rice Research Center, Pathum Thani province, Thailand. A phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain GMKU 370(T) formed a distinct clade within the genus Actinoallomurus. Strain GMKU 370(T) contained meso-diaminopimelic acid and lysine in the cell-wall peptidoglycan and galactose and madurose as whole-cell sugars. No mycolic acids were detected. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9(H(6)) and MK-9(H(8)). The polar phospholipids consisted of phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol. These chemical properties reveal that strain GMKU 370(T) belongs to the genus Actinoallomurus. Strain GMKU 370(T) is distinct from the phylogenetically closely related type strains Actinoallomurus iriomotensis NBRC 103685(T) and Actinoallomurus coprocola NBRC 103688(T) (99.20 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to both) in terms of differences in phenotypic characteristics and DNA-DNA relatedness (51 and 17 %, respectively). It is proposed that strain GMKU 370(T) represents a novel species of the genus Actinoallomurus, for which the name Actinoallomurus oryzae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is GMKU 370(T) ( = BCC 31373(T) = NBRC 105246(T)).
