Phylogenetic tree highlighting the position of Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 relative to phylogenetically close type strains within the genus Streptomyces. The strains and their corresponding GenBank accession numbers for 16S rRNA genes are shown in parentheses. The tree uses sequences aligned by ClustalX2 [8], and constructed by the neighbor-joining method [27]. All positions containing gaps were eliminated. The building of the tree also involves a bootstrapping process repeated 1000 times to generate a majority consensus tree [28], and only bootstrap values above 50 % are shown at branching points. Kitasatospora setae [29] was used as an outgroup
