Abstract:
A novel actinomycete, designated strain VN05A0561 T , 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 VN05A0561 T had the following chemotaxonomic characteristics: meso -diaminopimelic acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan, arabinose and galactose as characteristic sugars, MK-8(H 4 ) as the major isoprenoid quinone, phosphatidylcholine as the diagnostic phospholipid and iso-C 16 : 0 as the major cellular fatty acid. Strain VN05A0561 T 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 VN05A0561 T represents a novel species of the genus Pseudonocardia , for which the name Pseudonocardia babensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is VN05A0561 T (=VTCC-A-1757 T =NBRC 105793 T ).
