| hymenobacter psychrotolerans sp. nov., isolated from the qinghai--tibet plateau permafrost region. | a psychrotolerant bacterium, designated strain tibet-iiu11t, was isolated from the qinghai--tibet plateau permafrost region, china. a taxonomic study was conducted using a polyphasic approach, with determination of physiological and biochemical properties and phylogenetic analysis based on 16s rrna gene sequences. the novel isolate was found to belong to the genus hymenobacter and was distinct from the recognized species of this genus. the major fatty acids were iso-c15 : 0 (24.5 %), summed feat ... | 2008 | 18450716 |
| hymenobacter tibetensis sp. nov., a uv-resistant bacterium isolated from qinghai-tibet plateau. | a brick-red-pigmented strain (xtm003(t)) isolated from the qinghai-tibet plateau was investigated using a polyphasic taxonomy approach. phylogenetic analyses based on 16s rrna gene sequence indicated that the organism belonged to the genus hymenobacter. the predominant menaquinone was mk7. the major fatty acids included iso-15:0, 16:1w5c and summed feature 3 (c(16: 1)omega7c and/or c(16: 1)omega6c). the g+c content of the dna was 55.8%. in addition, dna-dna hybridization studies demonstrated tha ... | 2009 | 19765933 |
| abundance and community of snow bacteria from three glaciers in the tibetan plateau. | bacterial abundance and diversity in snow of east rongbuk, laohugou and hailuogou glaciers on the tibetan plateau were investigated through epifluorescence microscope and denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis. cell abundance ranged from 4.0 x 10(3) to 290.2 x 10(3) cells/ml. the phylogenetic trees placed the 16s rrna sequences in four major groups: proteobacteria, firmicutes, actinobacteria and bacteroidetes. brevundimonas, flavobacterium, hymenobacter, bacillus, polaromonas, rhodoferax and st ... | 2010 | 21174974 |
