Title: Streptomyces osmaniensis sp. nov., isolated from soil. Author: Reddy TVK, Mahmood S, Idris MM, Ciesielski S. Journal: Int J Syst Evol Microbiol; 2010 Aug; 60(Pt 8):1755-1759. PubMed ID: 19749033. Abstract: A novel actinomycete, designated strain OU-63T, was isolated from garden soil collected on the campus of Osmania University in Hyderabad, southern India. The strain was found to have morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics typical of the genus Streptomyces. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the strain belonged to the genus Streptomyces, and was related most closely to Streptomyces chartreusis NBRC 12753T (98.6% similarity). However, the mean level of DNA-DNA relatedness between the two strains was only 25+/-1.73%. Based on DNA-DNA relatedness, morphological and phenotypic data, strain OU-63T could be distinguished from the type strains of phylogenetically related species. It is therefore considered to represent a novel species of the genus Streptomyces, for which the name Streptomyces osmaniensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is OU-63T (=CCTCC AA209025T =PCM 2690T).[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
