- Abstract
A novel actinomycete, designated strain NEAU-zh8, was isolated from a root of Viola philippica Car collected in China and characterized using a polyphasic approach. 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity studies showed that strain NEAU-zh8 belongs to the genus Micromonospora, being most closely related to Micromonospora chokoriensis 2-9(6) (99.9 %), Micromonospora saelicesensis Lupac 09 (99.3 %) and Micromonospora lupini Lupac 14N (99.0 %). gyrB gene analysis also indicated that strain NEAU-zh8 should be assigned to the genus Micromonospora. The cell-wall peptidoglycan consisted of meso-diaminopimelic acid and glycine. The major menaquinones were MK-10(H), MK-10(H) and MK-10(H). The phospholipid profile contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylinositol. The major fatty acids were iso-C, C and C 10-methyl. A combination of DNA-DNA hybridization results and some physiological and biochemical properties indicated that strain NEAU-zh8 could be readily distinguished from the closest phylogenetic relatives. Therefore, it is proposed that strain NEAU-zh8 represents a novel Micromonospora species, for which the name Micromonospora violae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NEAU-zh8 (=CGMCC 4.7102=DSM 45888).
