Abstract
A novel endophytic actinomycete, strain MEP2-6T, was isolated from scab tissues of potato tubers collected from Mae Fag Mai Sub-district, San Sai District, Chiang Mai Province, Thailand. Strain MEP2-6T is a gram-positive filamentous bacteria characterized by meso-diaminopimelic acid in cell wall peptidoglycan and arabinose, galactose, glucose, and ribose in whole-cell hydrolysates. Diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, and hydroxy-phosphatidylethanolamine were the major phospholipids, of which MK-9(H6) was the predominant menaquinone, whereas iso-C16:0 and iso-C15:0 were the major cellular fatty acids. The genome of the strain was 10,277,369 bp in size with a G + C content of 71.7%. The 16S rRNA gene phylogenetic and core phylogenomic analyses revealed that strain MEP2-6T was closely related to Amycolatopsis lexingtonensis NRRL B-24131T (99.4%), A. pretoriensis DSM 44654T (99.3%), and A. eburnea GLM-1T (98.9%). Notably, strain MEP2-6T displayed 91.7%, 91.8%, and 87% ANIb and 49%, 48.8%, and 35.4% dDDH to A. lexingtonensis DSM 44653T (=NRRL B-24131T), A. eburnea GLM-1T, and A. pretoriensis DSM 44654T, respectively. Based on phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, and genomic data, strain MEP2-6T could be officially assigned to a novel species within the genus Amycolatopsis, for which the name Amycolatopsis solani sp. nov. has been proposed. The type of strain is MEP2-6T (=JCM 36309T = TBRC 17632T = NBRC 116395T). Amycolatopsis solani MEP2-6T was strongly proven to be a non-phytopathogen of potato scab disease because stunting of seedlings and necrotic lesions on potato tuber slices were not observed, and there were no core biosynthetic genes associated with the BGCs of phytotoxin-inducing scab lesions. Furthermore, comparative genomics can provide a better understanding of the genetic mechanisms that enable A. solani MEP2-6T to adapt to the plant endosphere. Importantly, the strain smBGCs accommodated 33 smBGCs encoded for several bioactive compounds, which could be beneficially applied in the fields of agriculture and medicine. Consequently, strain MEP2-6T is a promising candidate as a novel biocontrol agent and antibiotic producer.

Abstract
A polyphasic approach was used to describe strain K13G38T, a novel actinomycete isolated from peat swamp forest soil collected from Surat Thani Province, Thailand. The 16S rRNA gene phylogenetic analysis indicated that the strain belonged to the genus Amycolatopsis and showed the highest sequence similarities to both Amycolatopsis acidiphila JCM 30562T and Amycolatopsis bartoniae DSM 45807T (96.8% sequence similarity). Furthermore, strain K13G38T, which formed extensively branched substrate and aerial mycelia, exhibited chemotaxonomical characteristics of the genus Amycolatopsis which included phospholipid pattern type II and cell-wall chemotype IV. The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, hydroxy-phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylglycerol, two unidentified phospholipids, and an unidentified aminolipid. MK-9(H4) was a predominant menaquinone of the organism. The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C16:0, anteiso-C17:0, and C16:0. The genomic DNA size of strain K13G38T was 8.5 Mbp with 69.5 mol% G+C content. On the basis of phenotypic characteristics, overall genomic relatedness index and phylogenetic distinctiveness, strain K13G38T represents a novel species of the genus Amycolatopsis, for which the name A. acididurans sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is K13G38T (=TBRC 12507T = NBRC 114553T).
