Reclassification of Streptomyces violarus (Artamonova and Krassilnikov 1960) Pridham 1970 as a Later Heterotypic Synonym of Streptomyces violaceus (Rossi Doria 1891) Waksman 1953 using a Polyphasic Approach.

ABSTRACT
The taxonomic relationship between Streptomyces violarus and Streptomyces violaceus was reevaluated using a polyphasic taxonomic approach in this work. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that Streptomyces violarus JCM 4534 T was closely related to Streptomyces arenae ISP 5293 T. However, phylogenetic analysis based on five house-keeping gene (atpD, gyrB, recA, rpoB and trpB) showed that the evolutionary neighbor of Streptomyces violarus JCM 4534 T was Streptomyces violaceus CGMCC 4.1456 T, suggesting that there was a close genetic relationship between these two strains. The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between them were 97.0 and 72.9%, respectively, greater than the 96.7 and 70% cut-off points recommended for delineating a Streptomyces species. This result indicated that they belonged to the same genomic species which was also verified by a comprehensive comparison of phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics between Streptomyces violarus JCM 4534 T and Streptomyces violaceus CGMCC 4.1456 T. According to all these data and the rule of priority in nomenclature, it is proposed the Streptomyces violarus (Artamonova and Krassilnikov 1960) Pridham 1970 is a later heterotypic synonym of Streptomyces violaceus (Rossi Doria 1891) Waksman 1953. In addition, based on dDDH, Streptomyces violaceus and Streptomyces violarus are simultaneously designated as two different subspecies, i.e., Streptomyces violaceus subsp. violaceus and Streptomyces violaceus subsp. violarus.
