TL;DR: An actinomycete strain, ID05-A0528(T), was isolated using the SDS-yeast extract pre-treatment method from soil under mahogany trees in West Timor, Indonesia, and was examined by using a polyphasic taxonomic approach, demonstrating that the novel strain belongs to the genus Dietzia.

TL;DR: Six actinomycete strains isolated from soil and plant-litter samples in Indonesia were studied for their taxonomic position by using a polyphasic approach and revealed three DNA-DNA relatedness groups.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of adding Lactic acid bacteria inoculants to Napier grass at ensiling on the quality of silage was investigated, and the results showed that the 1A-2 inoculant treatment lowered the pH between 3.67 to 4.18 and increased the lactate level of the grass silage 0.34 mg mL-1 compared with the control and other treatments.

TL;DR: The results showed that the addition of 1%-5% rice bran significantly affected the quality of napier grass silages and Lactobacillus plantarum 1BL-2 addition.

TL;DR: On the basis of phenotypic characteristics, DNA-DNA relatedness and 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons, strains ID05-A0653(T) and ID06-A0464 (T) each represent a novel species of the genus Actinophytocola, for which the names Actinomycete timorensis sp.
