| desulfovibrio africanus subsp. uniflagellum subsp. nov., a sulfate-reducing bacterium from a uranium-contaminated subsurface aquifer. | the bacterial strain sr-1(t) was isolated from subsurface sediments of a uranium-contaminated site in shiprock, new mexico, usa. cells are vibrioid and motile by means of a single polar flagellum. strain sr-1(t) grows on sulfate, oxidizing formate, lactate and h2, but not malate, and ferments pyruvate. the dna sequences of the 16s rrna gene and the 16s-23s internal transcribed spacer of strain sr-1(t) showed 99.9 and 99.4 % similarity, respectively, to those of the type strain desulfovibrio afri ... | 2010 | 19661495 |
