sp. nov., sp. nov., sp. nov., sp. nov., and sp. nov.: five new members of and from polluted soil.

There are many unidentified microbes in polluted soil needing to be explored and nominated to benefit the study of microbial ecology. In this study, a taxonomic research was carried out on five bacterial strains which were isolated and cultivated from polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and heavy metals polluted soil of an abandoned coking plant. Phylogenetical analysis showed that they belonged to the phyla and , and their 16S rRNA gene sequence identities were lower than 98.
