Abstract

A novel actinobacterium, designated HIr16-25T, was isolated from the rhizosphere soil of a mangrove growing on Iriomote Island in Japan. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain HIr16-25T fell within the cluster of the members of the genus Agromyces and the highest sequence similarity value was observed with Agromyces rhizospherae IFO 16236T (98.6%). Strain HIr16-25T possessed L-2,4-diaminobutyric acid as a diagnostic diamino acid of the peptidoglycan, and MK-12 and MK-11 as the predominant menaquinones. The major fatty acids were identified as iso-C16:0, anteiso-C15:0 and anteiso-C17:0 and the principal polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol and one glycolipid. These chemotaxonomic features matched well those described for the members of the genus Agromyces. Meanwhile, the result of DNA-DNA hybridization and the presence of differential phenotypic characteristics between strain HIr16-25T and the type strain of A. rhizospherae indicated that strain HIr16-25T be classified as a novel species of the genus Agromyces. Therefore, we propose strain HIr16-25T to represent a novel species of the genus Agromyces, with the name Agromyces mangrovi sp. nov. The type strain is HIr16-25T (= NBRC 112812T = TBRC 7760T).

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 6. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 05 April 2018.
All research outputs
#5,814,924
of 23,041,514 outputs
Outputs from Archives of Microbiology
#443
of 2,800 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#101,591
of 330,403 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Archives of Microbiology
#6
of 25 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,041,514 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 74th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,800 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.7. This one has done well, scoring higher than 83% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 330,403 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 68% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 25 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 76% of its contemporaries.
