RESUMO
Six actinomycete strains isolated from soil and plant-litter samples in Indonesia were studied for their taxonomic position by using a polyphasic approach. Phylogenetically, all the strains were located in the broad cluster of the genus Actinokineospora. Chemotaxonomic data [cell-wall diamino acid, meso-diaminopimelic acid; cell-wall peptidoglycan, type III (A1γ); major sugars, galactose and arabinose; major menaquinone, MK-9(H4); major fatty acid, iso-C16:0; major phospholipid, phosphatidylethanolamine] supported the affiliation of all six strains to the genus Actinokineospora. The results of DNA-DNA hybridization with DNA from type strains of Actinokineospora species with validly published names revealed three DNA-DNA relatedness groups. Group I (ID03-0561(T)) showed low relatedness to the other strains studied. The three strains in group II (ID03-0784(T), ID03-0808 and ID03-0809) formed a group with high relatedness (98-100â%) and showed low relatedness to the other strains studied. The two strains in group III (ID03-0810(T) and ID03-0813) showed 58-68â% relatedness to Actinokineospora terrae NBRC 15668(T) and showed low relatedness (2-24â%) to the other strains studied. The description of three novel species is proposed: Actinokineospora baliensis sp. nov., for the single strain in group I (type strain ID03-0561(T) =BTCC B-554(T) =NBRC 104211(T)), Actinokineospora cibodasensis sp. nov., for the strains in group II (type strain ID03-0784(T) =BTCC B-555(T) =NBRC 104212(T)), and Actinokineospora cianjurensis sp. nov., for the strains in group III (type strain ID03-0810(T) =BTCC B-558(T) =NBRC 105526(T)).

The taxonomic positions of actinomycete strains ID03-0915T and ID03-0825, isolated from soil on the Indonesian island of Bali, were examined using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics of these organisms are typical of the genus Streptomyces. Phylogenetic analyses performed using almost-complete 16S rRNA gene sequences demonstrated that the strains were closely related to Streptomyces glauciniger and Streptomyces lilacinus. However, DNA-DNA hybridization and phenotypic characteristics revealed that the strains differed from known Streptomyces species. Therefore, we conclude that strains ID03-0915T and ID03-0825 (=BTCC B-563) represent a novel species of the genus Streptomyces, for which we propose the name Streptomyces baliensis sp. nov. The type strain is strain ID03-0915T (=BTCC B-608T=NBRC 104276T).
