Genomic and Phenotypic Characterization of Streptomyces sirii sp. nov., Amicetin-Producing Actinobacteria Isolated from Bamboo Rhizospheric Soil.

ABSTRACT: In our large-scale search for antimicrobial-producing bacteria, we isolated an actinomycete strain from rhizospheric soil of Bambusa vulgaris. The strain designated BP-8 showed noticeable antibacterial activity. BP-8 was subjected to a whole-genome analysis via a polyphasic taxonomy approach, and its antibacterial metabolite was identified by HRLS-MS. The results of the physiological and morphological analyses indicated that BP-8 is an aerobic, neutrophilic, mesophilic organism that is tolerant to 8% NaCl and can use a wide range of carbohydrates. It forms curly sporophores with a warty surface. The results of the phylogenetic and average nucleotide identity analyses and in silico DNA-DNA hybridization calculation indicated that BP-8 represents the type strain of a novel Streptom
