| streptimonospora salina gen. nov., sp. nov., a new member of the family nocardiopsaceae. | actinomycete strain yim 90002t (= cctcc 99003t = ccrc 16284t) was isolated from a soil sample collected from a salt lake in the west of china. the aerial mycelium of this organism is well developed but not fragmented and, at maturity, forms short chains of spores. spores in short chains are oval- to rod-shaped and have wrinkled surfaces. substrate mycelium is branched with non-fragmenting hyphae and forms single oval to round spores borne on sporophores or dichotomously branching sporophores. si ... | 2001 | 11321080 |
| streptomonospora alba sp. nov., a novel halophilic actinomycete, and emended description of the genus streptomonospora cui et al. 2001. | a halophilic actinomycete, strain yim 90003(t), was isolated from a soil sample collected from xinjiang province, china, by using starch-casein agar with a salt concentration of 20 % (w/v), ph 7.0. the strain grew well on most media tested. no diffusible pigment was produced. aerial mycelium and substrate mycelium were well developed on most media. the aerial mycelium formed short spore chains, bearing non-motile, straight to flexuous spores with wrinkled surfaces. the cell walls of strain yim 9 ... | 2003 | 13130027 |
| new genus-specific primers for the pcr identification of novel isolates of the genus streptomonospora. | the halophilic actinomycete genus streptomonospora, forming a distinct branch in the 16s rrna gene phylogenetic tree adjacent to the genera nocardiopsis and thermobifida, was first proposed by cui et al. to accommodate the species type streptomonospora salina. during a biodiversity and taxonomic study on halophilic filamentous actinomycetes from a saline lake in western china, numerous new halophilic actinomycetes strains were isolated. to confirm whether they are members of the genus streptomon ... | 2006 | 16958850 |
| multiplex specific pcr for identification of the genera actinopolyspora and streptomonospora, two groups of strictly halophilic filamentous actinomycetes. | the genera actinopolyspora and streptomonospora are two groups of extremely halophilic filamentous actinomycetes. members of these two genera are isolated frequently, probably due to the high occurrence of these actinomycetes in the hypersaline soil environment. although members of these genera can be identified by micromorphological criteria, the extensive chemotaxonomic characterization of each new isolates is a time-consuming task which cannot always be undertaken when handling large numbers ... | 2007 | 17308865 |
| streptomonospora halophila sp. nov., a halophilic actinomycete isolated from a hypersaline soil. | an actinomycete strain, designated yim 91355(t), was isolated from a soil sample collected from a hypersaline soil in xinjiang province, china, and its taxonomic position was investigated by using a polyphasic approach. the strain grew well on most media tested and no diffusible pigment was produced. the aerial mycelium of this organism was well developed but not fragmented and, at maturity, formed short chains of spores. substrate mycelium was branched with non-fragmenting hyphae and single, ov ... | 2008 | 18599694 |
| streptomonospora amylolytica sp. nov. and streptomonospora flavalba sp. nov., two novel halophilic actinomycetes isolated from a salt lake. | two novel halophilic, aerobic, catalase-positive but oxidase-negative, gram-positive actinomycetes, designated yim 91353(t) and yim 91394(t), were isolated from a salt lake in the north-west of china. phylogenetic analyses based on 16s rrna gene sequences indicated that the novel isolates should be assigned to the genus streptomonospora. the phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics of the isolates also matched those described for members of the genus streptomonospora. the predominant menaqu ... | 2009 | 19622663 |
| halophilic actinomycetes in saharan soils of algeria: isolation, taxonomy and antagonistic properties. | the diversity of a population of 52 halophilic actinomycetes was evaluated by a polyphasic approach, which showed the presence of actinopolyspora, nocardiopsis, saccharomonospora, streptomonospora and saccharopolyspora genera. one strain was considered to be a new member of the last genus and several other strains seem to be new species. furthermore, 50% of strains were active against a broad range of indicators and contained genes encoding polyketide synthetases and nonribosomal peptide synthet ... | 2011 | 21764956 |
