| kordia aquimaris sp. nov., a zeaxanthin-producing member of the family flavobacteriaceae isolated from surface seawater, and emended description of the genus kordia. | a gram-staining-negative, strictly aerobic, rod-shaped, non-flagellated, non-spore-forming and gliding marine bacterium designated strain cc-amz-301(t) was isolated from coastal surface seawater near taichung harbour, taiwan. strain cc-amz-301(t) predominantly synthesized zeaxanthin and thus formed yellow colonies on marine agar. the novel strain showed high pairwise 16s rrna gene sequence similarity to kordia periserrulae imcc1412(t) (95.0 %), k. algicida kctc 8814p(t) (94.4 %) and k. antarctic ... | 2013 | 23996836 |
