Abstract
Phylogenetic analysis of Streptomyces catbensis VN07A0015T and Streptomyces seranimatus YIM 45720T based on 16S rRNA gene sequences suggested that these two strains are related to the genus Yinghuangia rather than Streptomyces. The strains form smooth spores in their spore chains and possessed ll-diaminopimelic acid in cell walls. Their main whole-cell sugars are arabinose, glucose, rhamnose and ribose, or ribose, mannose and galactose, respectively. The menaquinones are MK-9(H8), MK-9(H6) and MK-9(H4). The major polar lipids contain phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol. These characteristics are consistent with the description of the genus Yinghuangia. Physiological, biochemical and chemotaxonomic data clarified that these two strains can be differentiated each other and also from Yinghuangia. aomiensis, only the valid species of the genus Yinghuangia. Therefore, S. catbensis Sakiyama et al. 2014 and S. seranimatus Wang et al. 2012 should be transferred to the genus Yinghuangia and be affiliated to different species, for which the names Yinghuangia catbensis comb. nov. (type strain VN07A0015T=NBRC 107860T=VTCC-A-1889T=VTCC 41889T) and Yinghuangia seranimata comb. nov. (type strain YIM 45720T=CCTCC AA 206006T=DSM 41883T=BCRC 16903T) are proposed.
