description of gluconacetobacter sacchari sp. nov., a new species of acetic acid bacterium isolated from the leaf sheath of sugar cane and from the pink sugar-cane mealy bug.	a new species of the genus gluconacetobacter, for which the name gluconacetobacter sacchari sp. nov. is proposed, was isolated from the leaf sheath of sugar cane and from the pink sugar-cane mealy bug, saccharicoccus sacchari, found on sugar cane growing in queensland and northern new south wales, australia. the nearest phylogenetic relatives in the alpha-subclass of the proteobacteria are gluconacetobacter liquefaciens and gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus, which have 98.8-99.3% and 97.9-98.5% 1 ...	1999	10555349
molecular detection of gluconacetobacter sacchari associated with the pink sugarcane mealybug saccharicoccus sacchari (cockerell) and the sugarcane leaf sheath microenvironment by fish and pcr.	molecular tools for the detection of the newly described acetic acid bacterium gluconacetobacter sacchari from the pink sugarcane mealybug, saccharicoccus sacchari cockerell (homiptera: pseudococcidae), and in the sugarcane leaf sheath microenvironment were developed. g. sacchari specific 16s rrna-targeted oligonucleotide primers were designed and used in pcr amplification of g. sacchari dna directly from mealybugs, and in a nested pcr to detect low numbers of the bacteria from sugarcane leaf sh ...	2000	10620720
novel nitrogen-fixing acetic acid bacteria, gluconacetobacter johannae sp. nov. and gluconacetobacter azotocaptans sp. nov., associated with coffee plants.	diazotrophic bacteria were isolated, in two different years, from the rhizosphere and rhizoplane of coffee (coffea arabica l.) plants cultivated in mexico; they were designated as type dor and type sad isolates. they showed characteristics of the family acetobacteraceae, having some features in common with gluconacetobacter (formerly acetobacter) diazotrophicus, the only known n2-fixing species of the acetic acid bacteria, but they differed from this species with regard to several characteristic ...	2001	11491326
design, development, and use of molecular primers and probes for the detection of gluconacetobacter species in the pink sugarcane mealybug.	molecular tools for the species-specific detection of gluconacetobacter sacchari, gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus, and gluconacetobacter liquefaciens from the pink sugarcane mealybug (psmb) saccharicoccus sacchari cockerell (homiptera: pseudococcidae) were developed and used in polymerase chain reactions (pcr) and in fluorescence in situ hybridizations (fish) to better understand the microbial diversity and the numerical significance of the acetic acid bacteria in the psmb microenvironment. the ...	2005	16047097
