Abstract
As part of a screening programme for antibiotic-producing bacteria, a novel Actinomadura species was discovered from a soil sample collected in Santorini, Greece. Preliminary 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons highlighted Actinomadura macra as the most similar characterised species. However, whole-genome sequencing revealed an average nucleotide identity (ANI) value of 89% with A. macra, the highest among related species. Further phenotypic and chemotaxonomic analyses confirmed that the isolate represents a previously uncharacterised species in the genus Actinomadura, for which the name Actinomadura graeca sp. nov. is proposed (type strain 32-07T). The G+C content of A. graeca 32-07 is 72.36%. The cell wall contains DL-diaminopimelic acid, intracellular sugars are glucose, ribose and galactose, the predominant menaquinone is MK-9(H6), the major cellular lipid is phosphatidylinositol and fatty acids consist mainly of hexadecanoic acid. No mycolic acid was detected. Furthermore, A. graeca 32-07 has been confirmed as a novel producer of the non-ribosomal peptide antibiotic zelkovamycin and we report herein a provisional description of the unique biosynthetic gene cluster.

Abstract
An actinobacterium, designated 14C53T, was isolated from a soil sample on basaltic material from Samsun, Turkey. The growth ranges for NaCl concentration and pH of strain 14C53T were quite limited and the growth temperature range of the strain was 20-37 °C, with an optimum at 28 °C. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain 14C53T was most closely related to Actinomadura geliboluensis A8036T (98.5 % similarity value), but in the phylogenetic tree, it formed a clade with Actinomadura alkaliterrae D310AT. The genome tree revealed a close relationship between the strain and Actinomadura pelletieri DSM 43383T. However, the digital DNA-DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values between strain 14C53T with Actinomadura geliboluensis A8036T and Actinomadura pelletieri DSM 43383T were 28.6-30.2 % and 84.3-85.5 %, respectively, and comparative analyses based on the genome sequences demonstrated that it represents a novel species of the genus Actinomadura. The genome size of strain 14C53T was approximately 9.0 Mb and the genomic DNA G+C content of the strain was 71.3 mol%. The major cellular fatty acids of strain 14C53T were C16 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0. Strain 14C53T contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as the diamino acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9(H8) and MK-9(H6). Based on evidence collected from the phenotypic, genotypic and phylogenetic analyses, a novel species Actinomadura soli sp. nov. is proposed, with 14C53T (=DSM 104447T=KCTC 39878T) as the type strain.

Abstract
A novel actinobacterium, designated strain NEAU-AAG5T, was isolated from sandy soil collected from Niuwang island in Sanya, Hainan Province, PR China. The taxonomic position of the strain was investigated using a polyphasic approach. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain NEAU-AAG5T belongs to the genus Actinomadura and shared highest sequence similarity with Actinomadura macra NBRC 14102T (98.8 %). Strain NEAU-AAG5T grows at 20-40 °C (optimum, 28 °C), pH 6-10 (optimum, pH 7) and has NaCl tolerance of 0-3 %. The menaquinones were identified as MK-9(H4) (4.2 %), MK-9(H6) (49.2 %) and MK-9(H8) (46.5 %). The major fatty acids were C16 : 0 (31.4 %), 10-methyl C18 : 0 (21.3 %) and C18 : 1 ω9c (15.7 %). The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositolmannoside, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphoglycolipid. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain NEAU-AAG5T based on whole genome sequences was 72.8 mol%. Digital DNA-DNA hybridization between strain NEAU-AAG5T and its closest phylogenetic neighbour, A. macra NBRC 14102T, resulted in similarity value of 28.0 % (<70 %). Additionally, the average nucleotide identity was 84.2 % for A. macra NBRC 14102T. On the basis of phenotypic, genotypic and phylogenetic data, strain NEAU-AAG5T can be characterized to represent a novel species of the genus Actinomadura, for which the name Actinomadura litoris sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NEAU-AAG5T (=JCM 33456T=CCTCC AA 2019043T).

Abstract
A novel actinomycete, designated strain NEAU-Ht49T, was isolated from sea sand sampled in Sanya and characterized by using a polyphasic approach. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain NEAU-Ht49T was most closely related to Actinomadura rhizosphaerae SDA37T (98.8 %), Actinomadura logoneensis NEAU-G17T (98.6 %), Actinomadura oligospora ATCC 43269T (98.6 %) and Actinomadura gamaensis NEAU-Gz5T (98.6 %). The results of phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain NEAU-Ht49T formed a cluster with A. rhizosphaerae SDA37T, A. logoneensis NEAU-G17T, A. oligospora ATCC 43269T, A. gamaensis NEAU-Gz5T and Actinomadura rupiterrae CS5-AC15T (96.4 %). Meso-diaminopimelic acid was detected in its cell walls and glucose, madurose, mannose and ribose were detected in whole-cell hydrolysate. The polar lipids were found to consist of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositolmannoside and two unidentified lipids. The majoy menaquinone was MK-10(H6) and the minor menaquinones were MK-9(H4) and MK-9(H8). The major fatty acids were C16 : 0, C18 : 1ω9c, 10-methyl C18 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0. Moreover, morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics of properties of strain NEAU-Ht49T also confirmed the affiliation of the isolate to the genus Actinomadura. However, DNA-DNA relatedness, physiological and biochemical data showed that strain NEAU-Ht49T could be distinguished from its closest relatives. Therefore, strain NEAU-Ht49T represents a novel species of the genus Actinomadura, for which the name Actinomadura harenae sp. nov. is proposed, with strain NEAU-Ht49T (=CGMCC 4.7499T=JCM 32659T) as the type strain.

Abstract
The taxonomic position of 'Actinomadura roseorufa' LMG 30035T, a semduramicin-producing mutant of strain ATCC 53666P, which was isolated from a soil sample collected in Yamae Village, Kamamoto, Japan, was clarified in the present study using a polyphasic approach. This Gram-positive, aerobic actinomycete formed a well-developed, extensively branched, non-fragmenting substrate and aerial mycelia which differentiated into single, smooth-appearing spores. Based on analysis of nearly complete 16S rRNA gene sequence, strain LMG 30035T was found to be closely related to the type strains of Actinomadura fibrosa ATCC 49459T (98.88 %) and Actinomadura formosensis JCM 7474T (98.82 %) (pairwise similarity values in parentheses). Digital DNA-DNA hybridisation experiments revealed unambiguously that strain LMG 30035T represents a novel Actinomadura species (OrthoANIu values less than 83.1 %; dDDH values less than 27.2 % with type strains of validly named Actinomadura species). Analysis of the cell wall revealed the presence of meso-diaminopimelic acid in the peptidoglycan. The whole-cell sugars were glucose, madurose, galactose, ribose and rhamnose. The major polar lipids included phosphatidylinositol and diphosphatidylglycerol. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9(H6), MK-9(H8), MK-9(H4) and MK-9(H2). The major fatty acids were C16 : 00, 10-methyl C18 : 0, C18 : 1 ω9c and C18 : 00. The DNA G+C content of its genome was 72.5 mol%. In summary, these characteristics distinguish strain LMG 30035T from validly named species of the genus Actinomadura, and therefore, we propose to classify this strain formally as the novel species Actinomadura roseirufa sp. nov. with LMG 30035T (=CECT 9808T,=ATCC 53664T) as the type strain.

Abstract
One novel actinobacterial isolate, designated strain NEAU-G17T, was isolated from muddy soil collected from a riverbank in Chad and characterised using polyphasic approach. Morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics of this strain coincided with those of the genus Actinomadura. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain NEAU-G17T was most closely related to Actinomadura oligospora JCM 10648T (98.7 %) and Actinomadura gamaensis NEAU-Gz5T (98.6 %). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain NEAU-G17T formed a cluster with Actinomadura oligospora JCM 10648T, Actinomadura gamaensis NEAU-Gz5T and Actinomadura rupiterrae CS5-AC15T (96.4 %). However, the combination of DNA-DNA hybridisation values and some phenotypic characteristics allowed the isolate to be differentiated from their most closely related species. The major menaquinones were identified as MK-9(H4), MK-9(H6) and MK-9(H8). Their polar lipid profile was found to contain diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol mannoside, an unidentified phospholipid and an unidentified lipid. The major fatty acids were identified as C16 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 and C18 : 1 ω9c. Therefore, it is proposed that strain NEAU-G17T should be classified as representative of a novel species of the genus Actinomadura, for which the name Actinomadura logoneensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strains is NEAU-G17T (=CGMCC 4.7411T=DSM 105122T).

Abstract
The application of phylogenetic taxonomic procedures led to improvements in the classification of bacteria assigned to the phylum Actinobacteria but even so there remains a need to further clarify relationships within a taxon that encompasses organisms of agricultural, biotechnological, clinical, and ecological importance. Classification of the morphologically diverse bacteria belonging to this large phylum based on a limited number of features has proved to be difficult, not least when taxonomic decisions rested heavily on interpretation of poorly resolved 16S rRNA gene trees. Here, draft genome sequences of a large collection of actinobacterial type strains were used to infer phylogenetic trees from genome-scale data using principles drawn from phylogenetic systematics. The majority of taxa were found to be monophyletic but several orders, families, and genera, as well as many species and a few subspecies were shown to be in need of revision leading to proposals for the recognition of 2 orders, 10 families, and 17 genera, as well as the transfer of over 100 species to other genera. In addition, emended descriptions are given for many species mainly involving the addition of data on genome size and DNA G+C content, the former can be considered to be a valuable taxonomic marker in actinobacterial systematics. Many of the incongruities detected when the results of the present study were compared with existing classifications had been recognized from 16S rRNA gene trees though whole-genome phylogenies proved to be much better resolved. The few significant incongruities found between 16S/23S rRNA and whole genome trees underline the pitfalls inherent in phylogenies based upon single gene sequences. Similarly good congruence was found between the discontinuous distribution of phenotypic properties and taxa delineated in the phylogenetic trees though diverse non-monophyletic taxa appeared to be based on the use of plesiomorphic character states as diagnostic features.

Abstract
A novel actinomycete strain, designated GKU 128T, isolated from the roots of an Indian oak tree [Barringtonia acutangula (L.) Gaertn.] at Khao Khitchakut district, Chantaburi province, Thailand, was characterized by using a polyphasic approach. The strain formed a branched substrate and aerial mycelia which differentiated into straight to flexuous chains of smooth-ornamented spores. Analysis of the cell wall revealed the presence of meso-diaminopimelic acid and N-acetylmuramic acid in the peptidoglycan. The whole-cell sugars were glucose, madurose, mannose, rhamnose and ribose. Mycolic acids were absent. The major phospholipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylinositolmannoside. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9(H6), MK-9(H8), MK-9(H0) and MK-9(H4). The major fatty acids were C16 : 0, C18 : 1ω9c and 10-methyl C18 : 0 (tuberculostearic acid). The genomic DNA G+C content was 70.5 mol%. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain GKU 128T was closely related to the type strains of Actinomadura nitritigenes NBRC 15918T (99.2 % sequence similarity) and Actinomadura fibrosa JCM 9371T (98.7 %). The levels of DNA-DNA relatedness between strain GKU 128T and the closely related type species were less than 19 %. On the basis of phenotypic and genotypic characteristics, strain GKU 128T could be distinguished from its closely related type strains and represents a novel species of the genus Actinomadura, for which the name Actinomadura barringtoniae sp. nov. (=TBRC 7225T=NBRC 113074T) is proposed.

Actinomadura alkaliterrae sp. nov., isolated from an alkaline soil. Antonie van Leeuwenhoek 2017; 110:787-794.

Abstract
A polyphasic study was undertaken to establish the taxonomic status of an Actinomadura strain isolated from the margin of a saline, alkaline lake in Central Anatolia, Turkey. Strain D310ATT was shown to have chemotaxonomic, cultural and morphological properties consistent with its classification in the genus Actinomadura such as hooked or irregular spiral spore chains, meso-diaminopimelic acid as the major cell wall diaminopimelic acid, and diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol as major polar lipids. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain D310ATT is closely, albeit loosely, associated with Actinomadura darangshiensis DLS-70T with 97.2% sequence similarity, but was readily separated from the latter using diverse phenotypic properties. Consequently, the isolate is considered to represent a new species of Actinomadura for which the name Actinomadura alkaliterrae sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain D310ATT (=DSM 101185T = KCTC 39657T).
