Streptomyces benahoarensis sp. nov. Isolated From a Lava Tube of La Palma, Canary Islands, Spain.

ABSTRACT: Two Streptomyces strains, labeled as MZ03-37^T and MZ03-48, were isolated from two different samples, a mucolite-type speleothem and a microbial mat on the walls of a lava tube from La Palma Island (Canary Islands). Phylogenetic analysis based on concatenated sequences of six housekeeping genes indicated that both strains belonged to the same species. The closest relatives for both strains were Streptomyces palmae CMU-AB204^T (98.71%), Streptomyces catenulae NRRL B-2342^T (98.35%), and Streptomyces ramulosus NRRL B-2714^T (98.35%). Multi-locus sequence analysis (MLSA), based on five house-keeping gene alleles (i.e., atpD, gyrB, recA, rpoB, and trpB), indicated that both isolated strains were closely related t
