Abstract
The taxonomic positions of members within the family Pseudonocardiaceae were assessed based on phylogenomic trees reconstructed using core-proteome and genome blast distance phylogeny approaches. The closely clustered genome sequences from the type strains of validly published names within the family Pseudonocardiaceae wer

Abstract
A novel actinobacterial strain, designated K81G1T, was isolated from a soil sample collected in Kantulee peat swamp forest, Surat Thani Province, Thailand, and its taxonomic position was determined using a polyphasic approach. Optimal growth of strain K81G1T occurred at 28–30 °C, at pH 5.0–6.0 and without NaCl. Strain K81G1T had cell-wall chemotype IV (meso-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid, and arabinose and galactose as diagnostic sugars) and phospholipid pattern type II, char
