The taxonomic position of a soil isolate, strain BK147(T), was established using data from a polyphasic study. The organism showed a combination of chemotaxonomic and morphological characteristics consistent with its classification in the genus Actinomadura. It formed a distinct phyletic line in the phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences of members of the genus Actinomadura and was most closely, albeit loosely, related to Actinomadura bangladeshensis DSM 45347(T), Actinomadura meyerae DSM 44715(T) and Actinomadura napierensis NRRL B-24319(T) but was readily distinguished from these strains using a range of phenotypic properties. Based on the combined genotypic and phenotypic data it is proposed that isolate BK147(T) ( = KACC 20919(T) = NCIMB 14771(T) = NRRL B-24852(T)) be classified as the type strain of a novel species of the genus Actinomadura, for which the name Actinomadura xylanilytica sp. nov. is proposed.

Introduction: Mycetoma is a chronic granulomatous infection, common throughout tropical regions, and is considered a neglected disease that mostly affects impoverished populations. Mycetoma is divided into eumycetoma, caused by fungi, and actinomycetoma, caused by filamentous bacteria. Clinical presentation is distinctive, and making the diagnosis is usually not difficult; however, access to safe and effective treatments is a major challenge.

Two mycelium-forming actinobacterial strains, designated as DLS-47 and DLS-62, were isolated from volcanic ash collected from the surface of a rock on the peak of Darangshi Oreum (a volcanic cone) in Jeju, Republic of Korea, and their taxonomic positions were investigated by a polyphasic approach. Both of the isolates showed growth at 20-42 °C, pH 6.0-9.

Introduction: Aerobic composting is an effective method for utilizing chicken manure. However, its low carbon to nitrogen (C/N) ratio leads to slow heating and short high-temperature phases, which reduce composting efficiency and product quality.

Methods: To address this issue, splinted mushroom cultivation residues were added to adjust the C/N ratio, and exogenous thermophilic composting strains were introduced to increase composting temperature.

Phenyl polyenes comprise a small family of bacterial natural products with broad and potent bioactivities, primarily found in actinobacteria. Here we report the discovery of five new phenyl polyene metabolites, maduraflavacins A-E (-), from a rare, marine-derived actinobacteria strain NA03286. The structures of these natural products were determined by NMR spectroscopy, HRESIMS, LC-MS/MS, and chemical derivatization.
