A novel actinomycete, designated as strain WCH-YHL-001(T), was isolated from skin biopsy specimens of a patient at West China Hospital, Chengdu, Sichuan Province, PR China. The cells were Gram-positive, aerobic, heterotrophic and non-motile. They formed an extensive substrate with short aerial mycelia, whose branches fragmented into rod-shaped elements. Growth occurred at 10-40 degrees C, pH 5.0-12.0 and with NaCl concentrations of 0-4.0% (w/v). The major cellular fatty acids of strain WCH-YHL-001(T) were C-16:0, C-18:1 omega 9c, C-18(:0) 10-methyl and summed feature 3. The predominant respiratory quinone was MK-8 (H4 omega-cycl). The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol. phosphatidylinositol mannoside, unknown phospholipids and unidentified glycolipids. The diagnostic diamino acid of peptidoglycan was meso-diaminopimelic acid. The whole-cell sugar pattern consisted of arabinose and glucose. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that strain WCH-YHL-001(T) belonged to the genus Nocardia. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) and in silico DNA-DNA hybridization (isDDH) values between strain WCH-YHL-001(T) and type strains of Nocardia species were lower than the cut-offs (>= 95-96% for ANI and >= 70% for isDDH) required to define a bacterial species. The genomic DNA G+C content was 67.8 mol%. Phylogenetic, physiological and chemotaxonomic data suggested that strain WCH-YHL-001(T) represented a novel species of the genus Nocardia, for which the name Nocardia huaxiensis sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain WCH-YHL-001(T) (=GDMCC 4.181(T)=JCM 34475(T)=NBRC 114973(T)).
