A new actinomycete strain, designated OU-63T, was isolated from a garden soil collected on the campus of Osmania University in Hyderabad, south India. The strain was found to have morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics typical of the genus Streptomyces. A phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that the strain belonged to the genus Streptomyces, being most closely related to Streptomyces chartreusis NBRC 12753T. However, the DNA-DNA relatedness between the two strains was only 25 %. Based on DNA-DNA relatedness, morphological and phenotypic data, strain OU-63T could be distinguished from the type strains of phylogenetically related species. It is therefore considered that strain OU-63T (= CCTCC AA209025T = PCM 2690T) represents a novel species of the genus Streptomyces, for which the name Streptomyces osmaniensis sp. nov. is proposed.
