| salinicoccus kekensis sp. nov., a novel alkaliphile and moderate halophile isolated from keke salt lake in qinghai, china. | a novel alkaliphilic and moderate halophilic bacterium, designated strain k164(t), was isolated from keke salt lake in qinghai, china. the strain grew with 2.0-20.0% (w/v) nacl, at 4-50 degrees c and ph 6.5-11.5, with an optimum of 8% (w/v) nacl, 37degrees c and ph 10, respectively. the predominant respiratory quinone was menaquinone 6 (mk-6) and the major polar lipid was phosphatidylethanolamine. the major cellular fatty acids were anteiso-c(15:0) and iso-c(15:0). the genomic dna g+c content wa ... | 2010 | 20449768 |
| salinicoccus halodurans sp. nov., a moderate halophile from saline soil in china. | a moderately halophilic, gram-positive coccus, designated strain w24(t), was isolated from saline soil in qinghai province, china. the isolate was able to grow at salinities of 0-24 % (w/v) nacl (optimally at 8 %, w/v), at ph 5.5-9.0 (optimally at ph 7.5) and at 8-43 degrees c (optimally at 28 degrees c). the genomic dna g+c content of strain w24(t) was 45.8 mol%. the predominant isoprenoid quinone was mk-6 and the cell wall contained lysine and glycine as diagnostic diamino acids. the polar lip ... | 2008 | 18599690 |
