Abstract
- Abstract: An actinobacterial strain YIM 80766<superscript>T</superscript> was isolated from a soil sample collected from the eastern desert of Egypt, and its taxonomic position was investigated by a polyphasic approach. The organism was found to have a range of chemical and morphological properties consistent with its classification in the genus Dietzia. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the levels of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between strain YIM 80766<superscript>T</superscript> and the other type strains of recognized members of the genus Dietzia were 97.0–98.9%. However, DNA–DNA hybridization values and phenotypic characteristics revealed that the strain differed from the currently recognized species of the genus Dietzia. Therefore, strain YIM 80766<superscript>T</superscript> represents a novel species of the genus Dietzia, for which the name Dietzia lutea sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YIM 80766<superscript>T</superscript> (=KCTC 19232<superscript>T</superscript>=DSM 45074<superscript>T</superscript>=CCTCC AA 207008<superscript>T</superscript>). The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain YIM 80766<superscript>T</superscript> has been deposited in GenBank under the accession number EU821598. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
