| flavobacterium tilapiae sp. nov., isolated from a freshwater pond, and emended descriptions of flavobacterium defluvii and flavobacterium johnsoniae. | a bacterial strain, designated ruye-71(t), was isolated from a freshwater tilapiine cichlid fish culture pond in taiwan and characterized in a taxonomic study using a polyphasic approach. cells of strain ruye-71(t) were gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, yellow-pigmented rods that were motile by gliding. growth occurred at 10-30 °c (optimum, 15-30 °c), at ph 7.0-8.0 (optimum, ph 8.0) and with 0-2 % nacl (optimum, 0-1 %). phylogenetic analyses based on 16s rrna gene sequences showed that stra ... | 2013 | 22611198 |
