| amycolatopsis halophila sp. nov., a halophilic actinomycete isolated from a salt lake. | a novel halophilic actinomycete, designated strain yim 93223(t), was isolated from a salt lake in xinjiang province, north-west china, and was subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. the isolate grew at 25-45 degrees c, at ph 6-8 and in the presence of 1-15 % (w/v) nacl; no growth was observed in the absence of nacl. strain yim 93223(t) contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, glutamic acid and alanine as cell-wall amino acids, and glucose and galactose as major whole-cell-wall sugars. major fatty ... | 2010 | 19666809 |
| yuhushiella deserti gen. nov., sp. nov., a new member of the suborder pseudonocardineae. | a thermotolerant, gram-stain-positive, aerobic, sporangium-forming actinomycete, strain ra45(t), was isolated from a desert region in xinjiang uigur autonomous region, north-western china. comparative analysis of the 16s rrna gene sequence and phenotypic characterization revealed that strain ra45(t) belonged phylogenetically to the family pseudonocardiaceae of the suborder pseudonocardineae. strain ra45(t) showed more than 5 % 16s rrna gene sequence divergence from recognized species of genera ... | 2011 | 20400669 |
| amycolatopsis salitolerans sp. nov., a filamentous actinomycete isolated from hypersaline habitat in tarim basin of china. | a novel actinomycete strain, designated trm f103t, was isolated from hypersaline habitat of tarim basin in xinjiang province, north-west china. its taxonomic status was determined using a polyphasic approach. phylogenetic analysis based on 16s rrna gene sequences showed that this strain belongs to the genus amycolatopsis, with highest sequence similarity to amycolatopsis halophila yim 93223t (99.3 %). however, the dna-dna relatedness between the two strains based on triplicate samples was only 3 ... | 2011 | 21317279 |
