Abstract Molecular systematicmethods were applied in a series of studies designed to resolve the taxonomic relationships of thermophilic actinomycetes known to be difficult to classify using standard taxonomic procedures.The test strains included representativesof clusters defined in an extensivenumerical phenetic survey of thermophilic streptomycetesand twelve marker strains. The resultantgenotypic data together with the results of correspondingphenotypic studies were used to highlight novel taxa and to improve the circumscription of validly describedspecies. The most comprehensive study was undertaken to clarify relationships within and between representative alkalitolerant, thermophilic and neutrophilic, thermophilic streptomycetes isolated from soil and appropriate marker strains. The resultant data, notably those from DNA: DNA relatedness studies, supported the taxonomic integrity of the validly described species Streptomyces thermodiastaticus, Streptomyces thermoviolaceus and Streptomyces thermovulgaris. However, the genotypic and phenotypic data clearly show that Streptomyces thermonitrificans Desai and Dhala 1967 and Streptomyces thermovulgaris (Henssen 1957) Goodfellow et al. 1987 represent a single species. On the basis of the priority, Streptomyces thermonitrificans is a later subjective synonym of Streptomyces thermovulgaris. Similarly, eight out of eleven representative alkalitolerant, thermophilic isolates and three out of sixteen representative neutrophilic, thermophilic isolates had a combination of properties consistent with their classification as Streptomyces thermovulgaris. One of the remaining alkalitolerant, thermophilic isolate, Streptomyces strain TA56, merited species status. The name Streptomyces thermoalcalitolerans sp. nov. is proposed for this strain. A neutrophilic, thermophilic isolate, Streptomyces strain NAR85, was identified as Streptomyces thermodiastaticus. Four other neutrophilic thermophilic isolates assigned to a numerical phenetic cluster and a thermophilic isolates from poultry faeces were also considered to warrant species status; the names Streptomyces eurythermophilus sp. nov. and Streptomyces thermocoprophilus sp. nov. are proposed to accommodate these strains. It was also concluded that additional comparative taxonomic studies are required to clarify the relationships between additional thermophilic streptomycete strains included in the present investigation. A corresponding polyphasic approach was used to clarify the taxonomy of six thermophilic isolates provisionally assigned to either the genera Amycolatopsis or Excellospora. Two of the isolates, strain NT202 and NT303, had properties consistent with their classification in the genus Amycolatopsis. However, the genotypic and phenotypic data also showed that these strains formed a is new centre of taxonomic variation for which the name Amycolatopsis eurythermus sp. nov. taxonomic proposed. Similarly, the four remaining strains formed two new centre of variation TA114 be designated within the genus Excellospora. It is proposed that isolates TA113 and Excellospora alcalithermophilus sp. nov. Similarly, the name Excellospora thermoalcalitolerans sp. description is also given for the genus nov. is proposed for strains TA86 and TA111. An emended Excellospora.

ABSTRACT Extreme and unusual ecosystems such as isolated ancient caves are considered as potential tools for the discovery of novel natural products with biological activities. Acti- nobacteria that inhabit these unusual ecosystems are examined as a promising source for the development of new drugs. In this study we focused on the preliminary estimation of fatty acid composition and antibacterial properties of culturable actinobacteria isolated from water surface of underground lakes located in Badzheyskaya and Okhotnichya caves in Siberia. Here we present isolation of 17 strains of actinobacteria that belong to the Streptomyces, Nocardia and Nocardiopsis genera. Using assays for antibacterial and antifungal activities, we found that a number of strains belonging to the genus Streptomyces isolated from Badzheyskaya cave demonstrated inhibition activity against Submitted 23 May 2018 bacteria and fungi. It was shown that representatives of the genera Nocardia and Accepted 24 September 2018 Nocardiopsis isolated from Okhotnichya cave did not demonstrate any tested antibiotic Published 25 October 2018 properties. However, despite the lack of antimicrobial and fungicidal activity of Corresponding author Nocardia extracts, those strains are specific in terms of their fatty acid spectrum.

  • Infection at the Wildlife-Livestock-Human Interface: Three Systems
    Infection at the Wildlife- livestock-human interface: three systems Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Elsa Sandoval Barron 12/4/2017 Abstract Zoonoses involve interactions between at least three species: the pathogen and two hosts, one of which is human and the other a non-human (vertebrate) animal. More than 60% of human infectious diseases are zoonotic, and many have a wildlife host. Urbanisation and human population growth have increased the demand for food and land resources, which have increased interaction between humans, domestic animals and wildlife and thus the potential for cross-species transmission of infections. Most studies of such systems take place in tropical and developing countries where population change and biodiversity makes the emergence of high profile infections (eg Ebola and SARS) more likely. This study, however, focuses on four well known infections within the UK: bovine tuberculosis, water-borne cryptosporidiosis and giardiasis, and campylobacteriosis. The aim of this study was to investigate, using four infectious diseases of economic and public health importance in the UK as study systems, the role of wildlife in the epidemiology of multihost, zoonotic infections. Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) is an important zoonosis in many parts of the world, but human infection is rare in the UK owing to a policy of ‘test and cull’ in cattle and pasteurisation of milk. However, there has been an epidemic of bTB in British cattle in recent decades, the control of which is complicated by infection in badgers (Meles meles) and controversy over the control of wildlife infection.

  • MYCOBACTERIA.Pdf
    MYCOBACTERIA Mycobacteria are widespread organisms, typically living in and food sources. Tuberculosis and the leprosy organisms are obligate parasites and are not found as free-living members of the genus. Mycobacteria are aerobic and nonmotile bacteria (except for the species Mycobacterium marinum, which has been shown to be motile within macrophages) that are characteristically acid fast. Mycobacteria have an outer membrane. They do not have capsules, and most do not form endospores. The distinguishing characteristic of all Mycobacterium species is that the cell wall is thicker than in many other bacteria, which is hydrophobic, waxy, and rich in mycolic acids/mycolates. The cell wall consists of the hydrophobic mycolate layer and a peptidoglycan layer held together by a polysaccharide, arabinogalactan. The cell wall makes a substantial contribution to the hardiness of this genus. The biosynthetic pathways of cell wall components are potential targets for new drugs for tuberculosis. Fig. 1 Mycobacterial cell wall: 1-outer lipids, 2-mycolic acid, 3-polysaccharides (arabinogalactan), 4-peptidoglycan, 5-plasma membrane, 6-lipoarabinomannan (LAM), 7- phosphatidylinositol mannoside, 8-cell wall skeleton. NONTUBERCULOUS MYCOBACTERIA – RUNYON CLASSIFICATION Runyon classification is a system of identifying mycobacteria on the basis of pigmentation and growth condition of the organisms. The Runyon classification of nontuberculous mycobacteria based on the rate of growth, production of yellow pigment and whether this pigment was produced in the dark or only after exposure to light. It was introduced by Ernest Runyon in 1959 (Fig. 111). On these bases, the nontuberculous mycobacteria are divided into four groups: Photochromogens (Group I) - produce nonpigmented colonies when grown in the dark and pigmented colonies only after exposure to light and reincubation (1M.

  • Actinomycetes from the Coffee Plantation Soils of Western Ghats: Diversity and Enzymatic Potentials
    Int.J.Curr.Microbiol.App.Sci (2018) 7(8): 3599-3611 International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences ISSN: 2319-7706 Volume 7 Number 08 (2018) Journal homepage: http://www.ijcmas.com Original Research Article https://doi.org/10.20546/ijcmas.2018.708.364 Actinomycetes from the Coffee Plantation Soils of Western Ghats: Diversity and Enzymatic Potentials Banu Sameera1, Harishchandra Sripathy Prakash2 and Monnanda Somaiah Nalini1* 1Department of Studies in Botany, 2Department of Studies in Biotechnology, University of Mysore, Manasagangotri, Mysore–570 006, Karnataka, India *Corresponding author ABSTRACT 230 soil actinomycetes were isolated from the coffee plantation of Western Ghats, Karnataka, India along the altitudinal gradients and depths. 24 morphologically distinct species were obtained based on the aerial spore chains and by the sequencing of the 16S K e yw or ds rRNA gene. The strains were assigned to the order Micrococcales, and novel orders Plantation soils, Pseudonocardiales ord. nov., Streptomycetales ord. nov., and Streptosporangiales ord. nov. Coffea arabica, The frequently isolated genus was Streptomyces, along with rare actinomycetes Streptomycetes, Actinomadura, Spirillospora, Actinocorallia, Arthrobacter, Saccharopolyspora and Rare actinomycetes, Nonomuraea. This study is the first report on Nonomuraea antimicrobica as a soil Soil properties, actinomycete. Diversity studies on the distribution of soil actinomycetes indicated enzymes significant differences (P< 0.05) among Shannon diversity indices of sample group depths Article Info along the slope. An attempt was made to correlate the total actinomycete count with soil parameters, by PCA based multiple linear regression (MLR) which significantly correlated Accepted: (P<0.0001) with pH, moisture, available nitrogen and phosphorous. About 91.6% of the 20 July 2018 isolates screened were found to be potentials for enzymatic activity.
