Nocardioides Imazamoxiresistens Sp. Nov. Isolated from the Activated Sludge.

A Gram-staining-positive actinomycete named YZH12T was isolated from the sediment of the Yangtze River in Nanjing, Jiangsu province, China. Cells were aerobic, non-spore forming, non-motile, short rod (0.4–0.6 × 0.5–1.0 µm) or coccus (0.4–0.6 µm in diameter). Colonies were circular, smooth, and beige to yellowish. Growth occurred at 15–42 °C (optimal 28 °C), pH 5.0–9.0 (optimal 7.0), and 0–10
