Nocardia callitridis sp. nov., an endophytic actinobacterium isolated from a surface-sterilized root of an Australian native pine tree
3 Nov 2009
Abstract excerpt
A novel actinobacterium strain, CAP 290(T), was isolated from a surface-sterilized root of an Australian native pine tree, Callitris preissii. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that the strain belongs to the family Nocardiaceae. Strain CAP 290(T) was most closely related to Nocardia nova JCM 6044(T) (97.4 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity) and Nocardia terpenica IFM 0706(T) (96.7 %); similarity...
