| Abstract |
A Gram-stain positive actinomycete, strain AZ1-19T, isolated from roots of Azadirachta indica A. Juss. var. siamensis Valeton, collected from Chachoengsao province, Thailand, was characterised taxonomically by using a polyphasic approach. Strain AZ1-19T was found to have characteristics consistent with those of members of the genus Micromonospora. The cell wall peptidoglycan of the strain was found to contain meso-diaminopimelic acid. The predominant phospholipids were identified as diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylinositol. The characteristic whole-cell sugars were identified as glucose, xylose, galactose and mannose. The major menaquinones were found to be MK-9(H6), MK-10(H6) and MK-10(H8), and the major cellular fatty acids were identified as iso-C16:0, iso-C15:0, anteiso-C15:0 and anteiso-C17:0. Comparative analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain AZ1-19T is closely related to Micromonospora costi CS1-12T (98.75% similarity), Micromonospora avicenniae 268506T (98.75%), Micromonospora haikouensis 232617T (98.68%) and Micromonospora siamensis TT2-4T (98.61%), whilst the corresponding phylogenetic analysis based on partial gyrase subunit B (gyrB) gene sequences indicated that strain AZ1-19T forms a clade with M. avicenniae 268506T with a high bootstrap value. The DNA G + C content was determined to be 69.8 mol%. Moreover, a combination of DNA-DNA relatedness values and some phenotypic and chemotaxonomic properties indicated that the strain could be distinguished from closely related species. Therefore, it is considered that strain AZ1-19T represents a novel Micromonospora species for which the name Micromonospora azadirachtae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is AZ1-19T (= KCTC 39941T = NBRC 112784T = JCM 32148T = TISTR 2559T). |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. 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 01 September 2018.
All research outputs
#17,989,170
of 23,102,082 outputs
Outputs from Antonie van Leeuwenhoek
#1,524
of 2,041 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#240,211
of 334,794 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Antonie van Leeuwenhoek
#16
of 39 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,102,082 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,041 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.6. This one is in the 20th percentile – i.e., 20% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
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 334,794 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 23rd percentile – i.e., 23% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 39 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 53% of its contemporaries.
