An actinomycete strain, K07-0523(T), was isolated from the roots of an orchid collected in Okinawa prefecture, Japan. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that the new strain belonged to the family Micromonosporaceae and the similarity values between strain K07-0523(T) and the type species of 24 genera in the family Micromonosporaceae were 93.3-97.7%. Strain K07-0523(T) contained D-glutamic acid, glycine, D-alanine, meso-diaminopimelic acid, hydroxydiaminopimelic acid and L-lysine in the cell wall. The major menaquinones were MK-9(H-6), MK-10(H-4) and MK-10(H-6). Galactose, glucose, mannose, ribose and xylose were present in the whole-cell sugars. The acyl type of the peptidoglycan was glycolyl. Major fatty acids were anteiso-C-17:0, iso-C-17:0, iso-C-16:0 and iso-C-15:0. Phosphatidylethanolamine was detected as the major phospholipid and corresponded to phospholipid type II. The G + C content of the genomic DNA was 73 mol%. On the basis of phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic data, the new strain represents a member of a new genus and novel species, namely Phytohabitans suffuscus gen. nov., sp. nov., in the family Micromonosporaceae. The type strain of the type species is K07-0523(T) (=DSM 45306(T)=NBRC 105367(T)).
