Popis: A polyphasic taxonomic characterization of two novel strain pairs (designated zg-579T/zg-578 and zg-536T/zg-ZUI104) isolated from the faeces of Marmota himalayana was conducted based on phylogenetic analysis of the nearly full-length 16S rRNA gene and genome, digital DNA–DNA hybridization, ortho-average nucleotide identity (Ortho-ANI), and phenotypic and chemotaxonomic traits. Comparative analysis of the nearly full-length 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain zg-579T was most closely related to Nocardioides dokdonensis FR1436T (97.57 %) and Nocardioides deserti SC8A-24T (97.36 %), whereas strain zg-536T had the highest similarity to Nocardioides caeni MN8T (98.33 %), Nocardioides convexus W2-2-3T (98.26 %) and Nocardioides daeguensis 2C1-5T (98.19 %). Low levels of DNA–DNA relatedness and Ortho-ANI values (19.8–31.0 %/78.6–88.2 %, zg-579T; 19.9–31.3 %/78.8–86.2 %, zg-536T) between the two new type strains and previously known species within the genus Nocardioides support the hypothesis that the four newly characterized strains could be considered to represent two novel species within this genus. The dominant cellular fatty acids found in strain pair zg-536T/zg-ZUI104 were iso-C16 : 0 and C18 : 1 ω9c, whereas C17 : 1 ω8c was major component in zg-579T/zg-578. Galactose and ribose were the main cell-wall sugars in these two new strain pairs. Diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG), phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol (PG) and phosphatidylinositol (PI) were the major polar lipids in zg-579T, whereas DPG, PG and PI predominated in zg-536T. Both strain pairs had MK8(H4) as the major respiratory quinone and ll-diaminopimelic acid as the major cell-wall peptidoglycan. The optimal growth conditions for the two novel strain pairs were 30 °C, pH 7.0 and 0.5 % NaCl (w/v). Based on these polyphasic characterizations, two novel species within the genus Nocardioides are proposed, i.e. Nocardioides marmotae sp. nov. and Nocardioides faecalis sp. nov., with zg-579T (=CGMCC 4.7663T=JCM 33892T) and zg-536T (=CGMCC 4.7662T=JCM 33891T) as the type strains.
