Abstract
A novel endophytic actinomycete, designated strain NEAU-J5(T) was isolated from roots of snap bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). Comparative analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that NEAU-J5(T) is phylogenetically related to members of the family Micromonosporaceae. The whole-cell sugars were galactose, mannose and glucose. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9(H4) and MK-9(H6). The major fatty acids were C16:0, C18:0, C17:1ω7c, iso-C15:0 and C17:0. The phospholipids were phosphatidylmethylethanolamine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylinositol mannoside. The DNA G+C content was 72.2 mol%. On the basis of the morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics, phylogenetic analysis and characteristic patterns of 16S rRNA gene signature nucleotides, strain NEAU-J5(T) represents a novel species of a new genus within the family Micromonosporaceae, for which the name Xiangella phaseoli gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Xiangella phaseoli is strain NEAU-J5(T) (=CGMCC 4.7038(T)=DSM 45730(T)).
