| deinococcus gobiensis sp. nov., an extremely radiation-resistant bacterium. | a gram-positive, non-motile, spherical, red-pigmented and facultatively anaerobic bacterium, designated strain i-0(t), was isolated from a sand sample of the gobi desert in xinjiang autonomous region, china. phylogenetic analysis based on 16s rrna gene sequences indicated that this isolate represents a novel member of the genus deinococcus, with low sequence similarities (<94 %) to recognized deinococcus species. the major cellular fatty acids were c(16 : 1)omega7c and c(16 : 0). its polar lipid ... | 2009 | 19502345 |
| deinococcus xinjiangensis sp. nov., isolated from desert soil. | a gram-positive-staining, spherical-shaped and faintly pink-pigmented bacterial strain, x-82(t), was isolated from soil samples collected from a desert in xinjiang, china. the organism was found to be resistant to uv radiation but sensitive to gamma radiation and desiccation. the optimum growth ph, nacl concentration and temperature were ph 7.0, 0-1 % nacl and 30 degrees c. phylogenetic analysis based on the 16s rrna gene sequence indicated that strain x-82(t) is member of a novel species belong ... | 2009 | 19329593 |
