Streptomyces baliensis sp. nov., isolated from Balinese soil.
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).
