| psychrobium conchae gen. nov., sp. nov., a psychrophilic marine bacterium isolated from the iheya north hydrothermal field. | a novel psychrophilic, marine, bacterial strain designated bj-1(t) was isolated from the iheya north hydrothermal field in the okinawa trough off japan. cells were gram-negative, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming, aerobic chemo-organotrophs and motile by means of a single polar flagellum. growth occurred at temperatures below 16 °c, with the optimum between 9 and 12 °c. phylogenetic analysis based on the 16s rrna gene sequence indicated that the closest relatives of strain bj-1(t) were shewanella de ... | 2014 | 25096326 |
