Abstract:
An actinomycete, strain HBUM 20038(T), was isolated from soil from Ganjiahu Natural Reserve in Xinjiang Province, in north-western China, and then characterized using a polyphasic approach. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis confirmed that strain HBUM 20038(T) was a member of the genus Nocardiopsis, and the morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics of the strain were also consistent with those of species of Nocardiopsis. DNA-DNA hybridization between the strain and related type strains gave relatedness values far below 70%. These results, together with physiological characteristics, showed that strain HBUM 20038(T) represents a novel species within the genus Nocardiopsis, for which the name Nocardiopsis ganjiahuensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HBUM 20038(T) (=DSM 45031(T) =CGMCC 4.3500(T)).
