screening for endophytic nitrogen-fixing bacteria in brazilian sugar cane varieties used in organic farming and description of stenotrophomonas pavanii sp. nov.	a gram-negative, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming and nitrogen-fixing bacterium, designated icb 89(t), was isolated from stems of a brazilian sugar cane variety widely used in organic farming. 16s rrna gene sequence analysis revealed that strain icb 89(t) belonged to the genus stenotrophomonas and was most closely related to stenotrophomonas maltophilia lmg 958(t), stenotrophomonas rhizophila lmg 22075(t), stenotrophomonas nitritireducens l2(t), [pseudomonas] geniculata atcc 19374(t), [pseudomonas] ...	2011	20495025
isolation and molecular identification of landfill bacteria capable of growing on di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate and deteriorating pvc materials.	waste materials containing di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (dehp), a suspected endocrine disruptor and reasonably anticipated human carcinogen, are typically disposed of in landfills. despite this, very few studies had been conducted to isolate and identify dehp-degrading bacteria in landfill leachate. therefore, this study was conducted to isolate and characterize bacteria in landfill leachate growing on dehp as the sole carbon source and deteriorating pvc materials. four strains lhm1, lhm2, lhm3 a ...	2012	22934997
stenotrophomonas tumulicola sp. nov., a major contaminant of the stone chamber interior in the takamatsuzuka tumulus.	during investigation of the biological contamination of the 1300-year-old mural paintings and plaster walls inside the stone chambers of the takamatsuzuka and kitora tumuli (tt and kt) in asuka-mura, nara prefecture, japan, the identity of 17 bacterial isolates from blackish moldy spots and viscous gels (biofilms) collected from both tumuli (16 isolates from tt and one from kt) during our 2005-2007 microbiological survey was systematically elucidated. one cluster of the major bacterial isolates ...	2015	26653171
stenotrophomonas bentonitica sp. nov., isolated from bentonite formations.	a gram-stain negative, rod-shaped, aerobic bacterial strain, bii-r7t, was isolated during a study targeting the culture-dependent microbial diversity occurring in bentonite formations from southern spain. comparative 16s rrna gene sequence analysis showed that bii-r7t represented a member of the genus stenotrophomonas (class gammaproteobacteria), and was related most closely to stenotrophomonas rhizophila e-p10t (99.2 % sequence similarity), followed by stenotrophomonas pavanii icb 89t (98.5 %), ...	2017	28820086
enhanced degradation of chlorpyrifos in rice (oryza sativa l.) by five strains of endophytic bacteria and their plant growth promotional ability.	endophytic bacteria reside in plant tissues, such as roots, stems, leaves and seeds. most of them can stimulate plant growth or alleviate phytotoxicity of pollutants. there are handful species with dual functions stimulating plant growth and degrading pollutants have been reported. five endophytic bacteria were isolated from chlorpyrifos (cp) treated rice plants and identified as pseudomonas aeruginosa strain rra, bacillus megaterium strain rrb, sphingobacterium siyangensis strain rsa, stenotrop ...	2017	28622646
