| [transfer of species of the genus actinomadura lechevalier et lechevalier 1970 to the genus nocardiopsis meyer 1976]. | the type cultures of four actinomadura species (a. africana, a. coeruleofusca, a. flava, a. longispora) were studied and compared with the type culture belonging to the genus nocardiopsis. in their morphological properties and in the composition of the cell wall, these cultures were shown to be closer to the genus nocardiopsis meyer 1976 rather than to the genus actinomadura lechevalier et lechevalier 1970. basing on these data, the species have been transferred to the genus nocardiopsis. | 1982 | 7070303 |
| immunomodulatory constituents from three ascomycetes, gelasinospora heterospora, g. multiforis, and g. longispora. | three new 2-pyrones (2h-pyran-2-ones) called multiforisins g (3), h (1), and i (4), and a known hexaketide sordarial (2) have been isolated from an ascomycete gelasinospora heterospora. among them, 1, 2, and 3 have been proved to be the immunosuppressive components of the fungus. compounds 1, 3, and 4 have also been isolated from g. multiforis together with multiforisin a (5), which was formerly isolated from this fungus as its main immunosuppressive feature, and 1-5 have also been isolated from ... | 1999 | 9987828 |
| longispora albida gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel genus of the family micromonosporaceae. | a novel actinomycete strain was isolated from a soil sample collected in japan by using gellan gum as a solidifying agent. spore-chains from the short sporophores were straight and each had more than 20 spores per chain. spores possessed no motility. cell-wall peptidoglycan contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, glycine, alanine and glutamic acid; whole-cell hydrolysates contained arabinose, galactose and xylose. the acyl type of the peptidoglycan was glycolyl. the predominant menaquinones were mk- ... | 2003 | 13130047 |
| actinohivin, a novel anti-human immunodeficiency virus protein from an actinomycete, inhibits viral entry to cells by binding high-mannose type sugar chains of gp120. | we searched human immunodeficiency virus (hiv) entry inhibitors and found a novel anti-hiv protein, actinohivin (ah), in a culture filtrate of the newly discovered genus actinomycete longispora albida gen. nov., sp. nov. this paper deals with the mechanism of action of the anti-hiv activity of ah. ah exhibited potent anti-hiv activities against various strains of hiv-1 and hiv-2. ah bound to the glycoprotein gp120 of various strains of hiv-1 and gp130 of simian immunodeficiency virus (siv), but ... | 2004 | 15003531 |
| the hyphomycete genus piricauda, with the description of a new species. | the genus piricauda comprises eight species characterized by monotretic conidiogenous cells and micronematous arched conidiophores: p. cochinensis, p. cubensis, p. longispora, p. mexicana, p. paraguayensis, p. pseudarthriae, p. taiwanensis, and p. vulcanensis sp. nov. p. caribensis is transferred to acrodictys. species usually colonize dead petioles and rachides of palms in tropical and subtropical areas, but can also be found on branches and leaves of different trees. the species are illustrate ... | 2005 | 16080395 |
| allocatelliglobosispora scoriae gen. nov., sp. nov., isolated from volcanic ash. | a novel actinomycete, designated strain sco-b14(t), was isolated from volcanic ash collected near darangshi oreum (a parasitic or satellite volcano) in jeju, republic of korea. the organism formed well-developed, branched substrate mycelium, on which short chains of non-motile spores were arranged singly or in clusters. aerial mycelium was not produced. globose bodies were observed. the reverse colour of colonies was light brown to brown. diffusible pigments were produced on isp medium 3 and oat ... | 2011 | 20207801 |
| longispora fulva sp. nov., isolated from a forest soil, and emended description of the genus longispora. | a novel actinomycete, strain kz0017(t), was isolated from a forest soil collected in ohnuma, fukushima, japan. strain kz0017(t) formed spore chains borne on top of short sporophores arising from vegetative hyphae. spores were non-motile and cylindrical with smooth surfaces. strain kz0017(t) contained meso-diaminopimelic (a(2)pm) acid, 3-oh a(2)pm, d-glutamic acid, glycine and l-alanine in the cell-wall peptidoglycan, and xylose, mannose, galactose, rhamnose and ribose in cell-wall hydrolysates. ... | 2011 | 20435743 |
| multiple gene genealogies and phenotypic characters differentiate several novel species of mycosphaerella and related anamorphs on banana. | three species of mycosphaerella, namely m. eumusae, m. fijiensis, and m. musicola are involved in the sigatoka disease complex of bananas. besides these three primary pathogens, several additional species of mycosphaerella or their anamorphs have been described from musa. however, very little is known about these taxa, and for the majority of these species no culture or dna is available for study. in the present study, we collected a global set of mycosphaerella strains from banana, and compared ... | 2008 | 20467484 |
| hyphomycetes on the vochysiaceae from the brazilian cerrado. | new hyphomycetes are described in association with leaves of native plants of the family vochysiaceae, as part of studies of cerrado fungi. six new species are described belonging to genera alternaria (a. qualeae sp. nov.), janetia (j. salvertiae sp. nov.), passalora (p. qualeae sp. nov.) and periconiella (p. longispora sp. nov., p. qualeae-grandiflorae sp. nov. and p. campo-grandensis sp. nov.). a key to the species of periconiella on qualea is provided. | 2003 | 21149025 |
| three new species of pyricularia are isolated as zingiberaceous endophytes from thailand. | pyricularia costina and three undescribed pyricularia species were found as endophytes on wild ginger amomum siamense and alpinia malaccensis in doi suthep-pui national park, chiang mai, thailand. three new species, pyricularia kookicola, p. longispora, and p. variabilis are described, illustrated and compared to similar pyricularia species. | 2003 | 21156642 |
| Saccharothrix yanglingensis sp. nov., an antagonistic endophytic actinomycete isolated from cucumber plant. | An endophytic actinomycete strain, designated Hhs.015(T), was isolated from roots of cucumber seedlings. The endophytic isolate was identified by means of a polyphasic taxonomic approach. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities, strain Hhs.015(T) was closely related to members of the genus Saccharothrix. DNA-DNA hybridization with the four closest relatives, Saccharothrix longispora NRRL B-16116(T), Saccharothrix xinjiangensis NRRL B-24321(T), Saccharothrix au ... | 2012 | 21892613 |
