| identification of pink-pigmented bacteria isolated from environmental water samples and their biofilm formation abilities. | sixty-seven strains of pink-pigmented bacteria, which were isolated from environmental water samples collected nationwide, were identified by partial 16s rdna sequence analysis. in addition, the biofilm formation ability of the isolates was experimentally investigated. we could identify only 2 strains at the species level: pedobacter roseus hs-38 and runella slithyformis hs-77. the results showed that of the strains tested, 22 strains (32.8%) were pedobacter spp., which was most frequently ident ... | 2008 | 18661678 |
| runella defluvii sp. nov., isolated from a domestic wastewater treatment plant. | a long, gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain emb13t, was isolated from a wastewater treatment plant in korea. the isolate was strictly aerobic and non-motile. the strain grew optimally at 30-35 degrees c and ph 7.5-8.0, and the predominant fatty acids were iso-c15:0, summed feature 3 (c16:1omega7c and/or iso-c15:0 2-oh), c16:1omega5c and iso-c17:0 3-oh. the strain contained a large amount of phosphatidylethanolamine and small amounts of phosphatidylcholine and an unknown phosph ... | 2007 | 17978225 |
| runella limosa sp. nov., isolated from activated sludge. | a gram-negative bacterium, designated strain emb111(t), was isolated from activated sludge performing enhanced biological phosphorus removal in a sequencing batch reactor. cells were long and rod-shaped. the isolate was strictly aerobic and non-motile. the strain grew optimally at 25-30 degrees c and ph 7.5-8.0. the predominant fatty acids of strain emb111(t) were iso-c(15 : 0), c(16 : 1)omega5c, iso-c(17 : 0) 3-oh, iso-c(15 : 0) 3-oh, c(16 : 0) 3-oh, c(16 : 0) and summed feature 3 (c(16 : 1)ome ... | 2006 | 17158973 |
| runella zeae sp. nov., a novel gram-negative bacterium from the stems of surface-sterilized zea mays. | a gram-negative bacterium, designated ns12(t), was previously isolated from duplicate treatments of surface-sterilized zea mays stems. the plants were grown in synthetic soil under greenhouse conditions and watered with fertilizer containing no nitrogen. strain ns12(t) was not isolated from plants watered with the standard level or 20% (w/v) of the standard level of nitrogen. cells were bent rods that formed chains of irregular shapes in r2a broth. unlike its closest described relative runella s ... | 2002 | 12508869 |
| phylogenetic placement of the spirosomaceae. | comparative analysis of 16s rrna sequences shows that the family spirosomaceae belongs within the eubacterial phylum defined by the flavobacteria and bacteriodes. its constituent genera, spirosoma, flectobacillus, and runella form a monophyletic grouping therein. the phylogenetic assignment is based not only upon evolutionary distance analysis, but also upon sequence signatures and higher order structural synapomorphies in 16s rrna. another genus peripherally associated with the spirosomaceae ... | 1990 | 11538307 |
| polyamine distribution profiles in the eighteen genera phylogenetically located within the flavobacterium-flexibacter-cytophaga complex. | cellular polyamines of eighteen genera belonging to the flavobacterium-flexibacter-cytophaga complex were analysed by ion exchange liquid chromatography. homospermidine was the major polyamine in the genera bergeyella, riemerella, ornithobacterium, weeksella, capnocytophaga, polaribacter and psychroflexus belonging to the family flavobacteriaceae. in the family spirosomaceae, runella, spirosoma and flectobacillus species contained spermidine whereas cyclobacterium species contained homospermidin ... | 2001 | 11491527 |
| dyadobacter fermentans gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel gram-negative bacterium isolated from surface-sterilized zea mays stems. | a gram-negative bacterium, designated ns114t, was isolated from duplicate treatments of surface-sterilized zea mays stems. the plants were grown in synthetic soil under greenhouse conditions and watered with fertilizer containing no nitrogen. strain ns114t could not be isolated from plants watered with the standard level or 20% (w/v) of the standard level of nitrogen. cells occurred as pairs in young cultures that attached to form angled arrangements in r2a broth and occasionally formed rounded, ... | 2000 | 10758885 |
| family spirosomaceae: gram-negative ring-forming aerobic bacteria. | the bacteria having a unique ring-like morphology first isolated from nasal mucus by weibel in 1887 were classified as a new genus spirosoma by migula in 1894. however, because these bacteria were not completely described for taxonomic purposes and their cultures were no longer available, the genus was deleted from the bergey's manual of determinative bacteriology, 6th edition, 1948. orskov (1928) created a new genus "microcyclus" (a name that has been found to be illegitimate and replaced with ... | 1990 | 2248690 |
