characterization of a rothia-like organism from a mouse: description of rothia nasimurium sp. nov. and reclassification of stomatococcus mucilaginosus as rothia mucilaginosa comb. nov.	an unknown, gram-positive, ovoid-shaped bacterium isolated from the nose of a mouse was subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic analysis. comparative 16s rrna gene sequencing demonstrated that the unknown organism was a member of the family micrococcaceae and possessed a specific phylogenetic association with rothia dentocariosa and stomatococcus mucilaginosus. phenotypically, the bacterium closely resembled r. dentocariosa and s. mucilaginosus but could be distinguished from these species by bioche ...	2000	10843069

rothia amarae sp. nov., from sludge of a foul water sewer.	a gram-positive bacterium, strain j18(t), isolated from sludge of a foul water sewer, was subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. phylogenetic analysis of the bacterium based on its 16s rdna sequence showed that it belongs to the genus rothia and forms a distinct phyletic clade with the type strain of rothia nasimurium. morphological, physiological and chemotaxonomic characteristics supported the assignment of this organism to the genus rothia and distinguished it from the type strains of all ...	2002	12508895
rothia aeria sp. nov., rhodococcus baikonurensis sp. nov. and arthrobacter russicus sp. nov., isolated from air in the russian space laboratory mir.	four gram-positive bacteria, strains a1-17b(t), a1-22(t), a1-3(t) and a1-8, isolated from the air in the russian space laboratory mir, were subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. phylogenetic analysis of the bacteria based on their 16s rdna sequence showed that they belong to the genera rothia (a1-17b(t)), rhodococcus (a1-22(t)) and arthrobacter (a1-3(t) and a1-8). morphological, physiological, chemotaxonomic and genomic characteristics supported the assignments of these strains to these gen ...	2004	15143031
rothia endophytica sp. nov., an actinobacterium isolated from dysophylla stellata (lour.) benth.	a novel endophytic actinobacterium, designated strain yim 67072(t), was isolated from healthy roots of dysophylla stellata (lour.) benth. cells of this aerobic, cream-yellow-coloured strain occurred singly, in pairs or in tetrads, were gram-stain-positive and ovoid- to spherical-shaped. strain yim 67072(t) grew at 4-45 °c, ph 5.0-10.0 and in the presence of 0-7 % (w/v) nacl. phylogenetic analysis based on 16s rrna gene sequences showed that strain yim 67072(t) belonged to the genus rothia. the i ...	2013	23710050
rothia marina sp. nov., isolated from an intertidal sediment of the south china sea.	a novel non-sporulating, non-motile, catalase-positive, oxidase-negative, facultatively anaerobic, gram-positive coccus, designated strain jsm 078151(t), was isolated from an intertidal sediment sample collected from naozhou island in the south china sea, china. growth was found to occur in the presence of 0-15 % (w/v) nacl (optimum 0.5-3 % (w/v) nacl), at ph 6.5-10.5 (optimum ph 7.0-8.0) and at 5-35 °c (optimum 25-30 °c). the peptidoglycan type was determined to be a3a, containing lysine, gluta ...	2013	23793563
synergistic hemolysis between β-lysin-producing staphylococcus species and rothia nasimurium in primary cultures of clinical specimens obtained from dogs.	nonhemolytic isolates of catalase-positive, gram-positive cocci were observed that produced strong synergistic hemolysis with colonies of staphylococcus pseudintermedius and staphylococcus schleiferi subsp. coagulans in primary cultures of clinical specimens from dogs. the isolates appeared similar to nonhemolytic staphylococci but were not identified with conventional biochemical tests or commercial biochemical test kits. partial 16s ribosomal rna gene sequences from each of 9 tested isolates w ...	2014	24760132
microbial infections are associated with embryo mortality in arctic-nesting geese.	to address the role of bacterial infection in hatching failure of wild geese, we monitored embryo development in a breeding population of greater white-fronted geese (anser albifrons) on the arctic coastal plain of alaska. during 2013, we observed mortality of normally developing embryos and collected 36 addled eggs for analysis. we also collected 17 infertile eggs for comparison. using standard culture methods and gene sequencing to identify bacteria within collected eggs, we identified a poten ...	2015	26048928
