Abstract
A novel actinomycete strain, designated as MG28T, was isolated from rhizosphere soil of Akebia trifoliate. The taxonomic position of the strain was investigated by using a polyphasic approach. BLAST search of the full-length 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain MG28T indicated it represented a member of the genus Streptomyces, and displayed 99.03%, 98.90%, 98.90%, 98.89%, 98.83% and less than 98.70% sequence similarities with S. phaeolivaceus GY16T, S. deccanensis KCTC 19241T, S. europaeiscabiei KACC 20186T, S. fructofermentans CGMCC 4.1593T, S. scabiei NRRL B-16523T and other species of the genus Streptomyces with validly published names, respectively. Phylogenomic analysis indicated that strain MG28T was closely related to Streptomyces deccanensis KCTC 19241T. However, the average nucleotide identity values and the digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between them indicated that strain MG28T represented a distinct species. Furthermore, strain MG28T was also distinctly differentiated from strain KCTC 19241T by morphological, physiological and biochemical characteristics. Therefore, strain MG28T (= MCCC 1K06895T = JCM 34922T) represents a novel species of the genus Streptomyces, for which the name Streptomyces akebiae sp. nov. is proposed.

Introduction
Nowadays, plants and animals, as medicine source, play an important role (Alves 2012; Ho 2005), but it can't be ignored that microorganisms are also significant source of pharmaceutically drugs (Bérdy 2012; Debbab et al. 2010; Waditee-Sirisattha et al. 2016). In 2010, it was reported that more than 33,000 microbial secondary metabolites had been discovered. Among these bioactive compounds, approximately 13,600 were produced by actinomycetes, in which about 75% was produced by Streptomyces (Olano et al. 2009; Solecka et al. 2012). So, in recent decades, Streptomyces has gained more and more attention for their potential ability to produce new natural products (Bouizgarne et al. 2009; Goodfellow and Fiedler 2010). These reports encouraged us to search for novel Streptomyces with potentially useful applications in all kinds of samples. In previous studies, many novel Streptomyces such as S. rhizosphaericola (Vargas Hoyos et al. 2019), S. tritici (Zhao et al. 2018), S. triticagri (Han et al. 2020), S. triticirhizae (Han et al. 2020) and S. inhibens (Jin et al. 2019), S. fagopyri (Guo et al. 2020) and S. broussonetiae (Mo et al. 2020) have been isolated from the rhizosphere soil of plants. In recent years, during the process of investigating the diversity and function of microbes from the rhizosphere soil of Akebia trifoliate, one of strains, designated as MG28T, showed antifungal activity against plant fungi. The aim of the present work was to determine the taxonomic status of this strain. The results of polyphasic taxonomic studies indicated that strain MG28T represents a novel species of genus Streptomyces, for which the name Streptomyces akebia sp. nov. is proposed.
Materials and methods
Isolation and maintenance of the organism
The rhizosphere soil sample of Akebia trifoliate was collected from Changde city located in the northwest of Hunan Province, China (N29° 28′ 30.87″, E111° 27′ 57.70″). Strain MG28T was isolated using the methods as described by Mo et al. (2018). Strain MG28T was stored for short term deposition on ISP 4 agar medium (Shirling and Gottlieb 1966) slopes at 4 °C and suspended in sterile 30% (w/v) glycerol solution for long term deposition at − 80 °C. The type strain, Streptomyces deccanensis KCTC 19241T was purchased from the KCTC (Korean Collection for Type Cultures, Daejeon, Republic of Korea). Reference strain was grown under the same conditions for comparative testing.
Morphological, cultural and physiological characteristics
Cell morphology of strain MG28T were observed by scanning electron microscope (FEI-Quanta 450, America) after incubation on Gause's synthetic agar medium (Atlas 1993) for 21 days at 28 °C. The color of colonies and soluble pigments were observed on Gause's synthetic medium and ISP media (Shirling and Gottlieb 1966) after incubation at 28 °C for 21 days. Colors of substrate mycelia, aerial hyphae and soluble pigments were determined by the Color Standards and Color Nomenclature (Ridgway 1912). Growth at different temperatures (4, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40 and 45 °C) and the concentrations of NaCl (0–14%, w/v with an interval of 1% unit) was tested on ISP2 medium at 28 °C for 14 days. The pH range (pH 4.0–13.0 at intervals of 1.0 pH unit) for growth was tested by using ISP 2 as the basal medium using the buffer system as described by Xu et al. (2007). Carbon source utilization was tested by using ISP 9 medium (Shirling and Gottlieb 1966) supplemented with 0.5% carbon sources. The utilization of nitrogen sources was performed as described previously (Shirling and Gottlieb 1966). The other physiological characteristic including gelatin liquefaction, nitrate reduction, starch and aesculin hydrolysis, degradation tests for Tweens (20, 40, 60 and 80) were carried out according to the methods described by Xu et al. (2007) and Ruan and Huang (2011). The experiments were carried out in triplicate.
Chemotaxonomic characterisation
Biomass for chemotaxonomic analysis was collected by centrifugation from cultures grown in tryptic soy broth medium (TSB medium) in shake flasks for 7 days at 28 °C and then washed twice with distilled water. Cellular fatty acid composition analysis was carried out by China Center of Industrial Culture Collection (CICC) according to the protocol of the Sherlock Microbial Identification system (MIDI system; http://www.midi-inc.com/) and analyzed by GC (6968; Hewlett Packard) using the Microbial Identification software package (MIDI 2005). The isomers of diaminopimelic acid analysis and sugar analysis in whole-cell hydrolysates were performed according to the procedures described by Hasegawa et al. (1983) and Lechevalier and Lechevalier (1970). Menaquinones were extracted according to the method of Collins et al. (1977) and analysed by HPLC (Kroppenstedt 1985). The polar lipids were extracted, separated and analysed as described by Komagata and Suzuki (1987).
Phylogenetic analysis and genomic DNA-DNA correlation analysis
Genomic DNA extraction and PCR amplification of the 16S rRNA gene were performed as described by Weisburg et al. (1991) and Lane (1991). The PCR product was purified using a Mag Extractor PCR and Gel Clean up kit (toyobo) according to the manufacturers' instructions and sequenced directly using an automated DNA sequencing system (ABI 3730XL; Applied Biosystems) by Sangon Biotech (Shanghai). Whole-genome sequencing of strain MG28T and S. deccanensis KCTC 19241T was performed by Wuhan Benagen Technology Co., Ltd (Hubei, China) using a Nanopore PromethION sequencing system. The sequenced reads were assembled using SOAPdenovo (version 2.04) software (Xie et al. 2014). The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain MG28T was compared with public databases and EzBioCloud database (http:// www.ezbiocloud.net/eztaxon; (Yoon et al. 2017). The genome sequences of strain MG28T and the closely related type strains with validly published names were used for reconstructing phylogenetic trees. Phylogenomic analysis was carried out using the Type (Strain) Genome Server (https://tygs.dsmz.de/) (Meier-Kolthoff and Göker 2019). The average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between the genomes of strain MG28T and its relatives were calculated using the JSpeciesWS online service (Richter et al. 2016) and the genome-to-genome distance calculator (Meier-Kolthoff et al. 2013), respectively. For calculating dDDH value, Formula 2 was used. The G + C content of the genomic DNA of strain MG28T was deduced from the genomic data.
Results and discussion
Morphological and physiological characterization of the strain MG28T
The morphological characteristics showed that strain MG28T had the typical characteristics of the genus Streptomyces. Cells of strain MG28T was Gram-stain-positive and aerobic. Strain MG28T formed an extensively branched substrate hyphae and aerial mycelium on Gause's synthetic agar medium, and produced straight to flexuous spore chains consisting of rod spores with smooth-surfaced (Fig. 1). Strain MG28T was observed to grow well on all tested media. Melanin and diffusible pigment were produced on ISP 6 and ISP 7 agar media, respectively. Other cultural characteristics of strain MG28T were shown in Table 1. Strain MG28T was found to grow at 4–45 °C (optimum, 28 °C), pH 6.0–11.0 (optimum, pH 7.0) and tolerate up to 5.0% (w/v) NaCl. Detailed physiological characteristics about sole carbon source utilization about strains are presented in the species description.
Chemotaxonomic characteristics
The chemotaxonomic studies revealed that strain MG28T exhibited characteristics typical of members of the genus Streptomyces. For example, the cell wall contained ll-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic amino acid, and the whole-cell hydrolysates were galactose and glucose. The predominant cellular fatty acids (> 5%) of strain MG28T were Sum in Feature 3 (C16:1ω7C/C16:1ω6C) (19.7%), iso-C16:0 (18.9%), anteiso-C15:0 (17.8%), C16:0 (7.0%), iso-C15:0 (5.3%) and anteiso-C17:0 (5.2%). Other fatty acids present in smaller amounts (> 1%) were iso-C14:0 (4.8%), anteiso-C17:1ω5C (2.9%), C14:0 (2.9%), iso H-C16:1 (2.3%), Sum in Feature 9 (10-methyl C16:0) (2.0%), cyclo-C17:0 (1.4%) and anteiso-C13:0 (1.0%). The menaquinones were MK-9 (4.6%), MK-9(H2) (30.1%), MK-9(H4) (32.8%), MK-9(H6) (18.3%) and MK-9(H8) (12.9%), which is also typical of members of the genus Streptomyces. The DNA G + C content of strain MG28T was 70.8%, within the range 69–78% of the member of the genus Streptomyces (Wright and Bibb 1992). The polar lipids consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylinositol (PI), phosphatidylinositol mannosides (PIM), phosphatidyl glycerol (PG) and unidentified spots (L1) (Fig. S1, available in the online version of this paper).
Phylogenic analysis
Based on the full-length 16S rRNA gene sequence (1527 bp) analysis, strain MG28T represented a member of the genus Streptomyces, and shared 99.03% similarity with S. phaeolivaceus GY16T, 98.90% similarities with S. deccanensis KCTC 19241T and S. europaeiscabiei KACC 20186T, 98.89% similarity with S. fructofermentans CGMCC 4.1593T, 98.83% similarity with S. scabiei NRRL B-16523T and less than 98.7% similarity with other type species of the genus Streptomyces. Considering that the phylogenomic analysis exhibited better resolution than the phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence (Rodriguez et al. 2018), so, in the present work, the phylogenomic analysis was carried out in order to clarify taxonomic status of strain MG28T. It was shown in Fig. 2, strain MG28T was clustered together with S. deccanensis KCTC 19241T, suggesting that it was closely related to S. deccanensis KCTC 19241T. However, the ANIm/ANIb and dDDH values between strain MG28T and S. deccanensis KCTC 19241T were 92.9/91.4% and 47.0%, much less than 95–96% and 70% cut-off points recommended for delineating species (Richter and Rosselló-Móra 2009; Chun et al. 2018). In addition, the cultural, physiological and biochemical characteristics were dissimilar enough to distinguish strain MG28T from S. deccanensis KCTC 19241T (Tables 1 and 2). For example, strain MG28T forms a gray aerial mycelium and yellow substrate mycelium with no diffusible pigment on Gause's synthetic medium, while S. deccanensis KCTC 19241T develops white aerial mycelium and kaiser brown substrate mycelium with apricot buff diffusible pigment. In addition, the appearance of the straight to flexuous spore's chain with smooth surfaces of strain MG28T is clearly distinguishable from the straight spore's chain with hairy surfaces of S. deccanensis KCTC 19241T. Meanwhile, according to the description of Stackebrandt and Ebers (2006), if 16S sequence similarity between two strains ≥ 98.7%, ANI or dDDH values need to be calculated to evaluate their DNA-DNA relatedness in delineating new species. In the present work, ANIm/ANIb and dDDH values between strain MG28T and S. phaeolivaceus GY16T, between strain MG28T and S. europaeiscabiei KACC 20186T, between strain MG28T and S. fructofermentans CGMCC 4.1593T, between strain MG28T and S. scabiei NRRL B-16523T were 85.8–90.7%/(80.2–91.4%) and 23.2–38.8% (Table 3) [37, 38], respectively, well below the 95–96% and 70% cut-off point recommended for delineating prokaryote species. In conclusion, strain MG28T represents a novel Streptomyces species, for which the name Streptomyces akebiae sp. nov. is proposed.
