ramlibacter tataouinensis gen. nov., sp. nov., and ramlibacter henchirensis sp. nov., cyst-producing bacteria isolated from subdesert soil in tunisia. | ramlibacter gen. nov. is proposed for two aerobic, chemo-organotrophic, cyst-producing soil bacterial strains. these bacteria are gram-negative, non-flagellated rods or cysts, isolated from subdesert soil in tataouine, tunisia. phylogenetic analyses of the rrs sequences of the two strains showed that they do not constitute a robust clade at the genus level with any previously described bacteria and that they are a deep branch of a clade also grouping the genera acidovorax and hydrogenophaga with ... | 2003 | 12710631 |
