“…Gordonia bronchialis DSM 43247T and Gordonia terrae DSM 43249T, for example, share a nucleotide similarity value of 98.3% which corresponds to 25 nucleotide differences ; members of these species show DNA-DNA relatedness values within the range 16-2 1 % (Zakrzewska-Czerwinska et al., 1988). Similarly, Gordonia aichiensis DSM 43978T and Gordonia sputi DSM 43896T share a 16s rDNA nucleotide similarity value of 99-7 YO (which corresponds to four nucleo tide differences) and DNA-DNA relatedness values within the range 38-40 Yo (Goodfellow et al, 1978;Klatte et al, 1994).…”

“…The polysaccharide fraction of the wall is rich in arabinose . Available DNA-DNA relatedness data support the taxonomic integrity of these species (Mordarski et al, 1977(Mordarski et al, , 1980Zakrzewska-Czerwinska et al, 1988;Klatte et al, 1994;Riegel et al, 1994;Takeuchi & Hatano, 1998). The improved classification provides a sound framework for the recognition of additional species of Gordonia.…”

The taxonomic position of two actinomycetes isolated from soil was established using a polyphasic approach. The organisms, designated 21 3ET and 21 3F, were found to have chemical and morphological properties consistent with their assignment to the genus Gordonia. Nearly complete sequences of the 165 rDNA genes of the two strains were determined following the isolation and direct sequencing of the amplified genes. The tested strains were found to have identical 16s rDNA sequences and formed a phylogenetic line within the evolutionary radiation occupied by the genus Gordonia that was most closely related to Gordonia rubropertincta DSM 431 97T. However, DNA-DNA relatedness data showed that strain 213ET and Gordonia rubropertincta DSM 43197T belonged to distinct genomic species. Strains 21 3ET and 213F also shared an identical phenotypic profile which distinguished them from representatives of validly described Gordonia species. The combined genotypic and phenotypic data show that strains 213ET and 213F merit recognition as a new species of Gordonia. The name proposed for the new species is Gordonia desulfuricans, for which the type strain is 213ET ( = NCIMB 408163.

“…Fatty acid methyl esters were prepared and analysed as described by Klatte et al (1994) by using the standard Microbial Identification System (MIDI Inc.) for automated gas chromatographic analysis (Sasser, 1990;Kämpfer & Kroppenstedt, 1996). Isoprenoid quinones were extracted with chloroform/methanol (2 : 1, v/v) and purified by using TLC on Kieselgel 60 F 254 plates (20620 cm, 0.5 mm thickness; Merck) with petroleum ether/diethyl ether (9 : 1, v/v) as the solvent.…”

Paenibacillus sputi sp. nov., isolated from the sputum of a patient with pulmonary disease

Strain KIT 00200-70066-1 T was isolated from the sputum of a patient with pulmonary disease. Cells of the strain were Gram-variable, facultatively anaerobic, motile, spore-forming rods and formed colourless to white colonies on tryptic soy agar at 30 6C and pH 7. The pathogenicity of the strain is not known. The strain contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan, MK-7 as the predominant menaquinone, anteiso-C 15 : 0 , iso-C 16 : 0 and C 16 : 0 as the major fatty acids and diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and several unknown lipids in the polar lipid profile. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the isolate belongs to the genus Paenibacillus, sharing the highest levels of sequence similarity with Paenibacillus nanensis MX2-3 T , Paenibacillus agaridevorans DSM 1355 T and Paenibacillus alkaliterrae KSL-134 T (95.4, 95.2 and 94.8 %, respectively), and that it occupied a distinct position within this genus. Combined phylogenetic and phenotypic data supported the conclusion that strain KIT 00200-70066-1 T represents a novel species of the genus Paenibacillus, for which the name Paenibacillus sputi sp. nov. is proposed; the type strain is KIT 00200-70066-1 T (5KCTC 13252 T 5DSM 22699 T ).The genus Paenibacillus (type species, Paenibacillus polymyxa) was erected by Ash et al. (1993) to accommodate the so-called rRNA group 3 bacilli, comprising 11 Bacillus species, on the basis of comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. Since then, eight more Bacillus species and one Clostridium species have been transferred to the genus, and a large number of novel species have been described; consequently, the genus contains 102 recognized species at the time of writing (Euzéby, 2009). Members of the genus Paenibacillus have been isolated from a wide variety of sources including soil, sediment, humus, the plant rhizosphere and phyllosphere, water, food, fodder, faeces, plant materials and diseased insect larvae (Daane et al., 2002). Some species have been reported from human biological samples, e.g. Paenibacillus turicensis and Paenibacillus provencensis from cerebrospinal fluid samples, Paenibacillus massiliensis, Paenibacillus sanguinis, Paenibacillus timonensis and Paenibacillus konsidensis from blood cultures and Paenibacillus urinalis from a urine sample, but they have been considered to be contaminants rather than pathogens (Bosshard et al., 2002;Roux & Raoult, 2004; Ko et al., 2008;Roux et al., 2008). Meanwhile, it has been reported that some pathogenic strains considered to belong to Paenibacills alvei and Paenibacillus macerans were isolated from patients with brain abscesses, catheter-associated infections, endophthalmitis, meningitis, prosthetic hip infections and wound infections (Antonello & Weinstein, 1989;Reboli et al., 1989;Bert et al., 1995;Barrero et al., 1996). However, they were classified based only on conventional phenotypic characterization, so their taxonomic affiliation remains uncert...

Two bacterial strains, IFM 10211T and IFM 10200T, were isolated from the sputum of two Japanese patients, and were subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. The two strains were found to have morphological, physiological and chemotaxonomic properties that were consistent with their assignment to the genus Gordonia, except for a few chemotaxonomic characteristics. Almost complete 16S rRNA gene sequences of the two strains were determined; the data showed that they are related distantly to Gordonia amarae, Gordonia hirsuta, Gordonia hydrophobica and Gordonia sihwensis, showing 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities to the type strains of these species of 96.2–97.9 %. DNA–DNA relatedness data coupled with the combination of genotypic and phenotypic data indicated that the two strains are representatives of two novel, separate species. The names proposed to accommodate these two strains are Gordonia araii sp. nov. (type strain IFM 10211T=DSM 44811T=NBRC 100433T=JCM 12131T) and Gordonia effusa sp. nov. (type strain IFM 10200T=DSM 44810T=NBRC 100432T=JCM 12130T).
