A novel actinomycete strain YIM 33361^T was isolated from a soil sample collected from Yunnan, China. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequencing showed that the strain constituted a distinct subclade within the genus Nocardia, displaying more than 3 % sequence divergence from established species. Based on its morphological, chemotaxonomic, phenotypic and genotypic characteristics, strain YIM 33361^T (=CCTCC AA 204004^T=KCTC 19027^T) is proposed as the type strain of a novel species, Nocardia polyresistens sp. nov.

Published online ahead of print on 28 January 2005 as DOI 10.1099/ijs.0.63352-0.

The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain YIM 33361^T is AY626158.
