| flavobacterium frigidarium sp. nov., an aerobic, psychrophilic, xylanolytic and laminarinolytic bacterium from antarctica. | a psychrophilic, aerobic bacterium designated a2it was isolated from marine sediment recovered from shallow waters surrounding adelaide island, antarctica (67 degrees 34' s, 68 degrees 07' w). the organism exhibited xylanolytic and laminarinolytic activity and was halotolerant. basic characterization showed that it was gram-negative, non-motile, yellow-pigmented (beta,beta-carotene-3,3'-diol) and positive for oxidase and catalase synthesis. analysis of the 16s rdna sequence suggests that the org ... | 2001 | 11491319 |
| flavobacterium limicola sp. nov., a psychrophilic, organic-polymer-degrading bacterium isolated from freshwater sediments. | three novel strains of cold-adapted bacteria, st-82t, st-10 and st-92, were isolated from freshwater sediments. these three isolates were very similar to each other in phenotypic and chemotaxonomic traits, as well as in 16s rdna sequence. the strains were gram-negative, elongated filament-like rods that formed bright yellow colonies. they showed neither flexirubin pigments nor gliding motility. the strains were able to hydrolyse casein, gelatin, starch, agar, aesculin, urea, uric acid and tyrosi ... | 2003 | 12710621 |
| flavobacterium algicola sp. nov., isolated from marine algae. | a rod-shaped gram-staining-negative, non-motile, aerobic and fucoidan-digesting strain, designated tc2(t), was isolated from marine algae collected from the coast of the sea of okhotsk at abashiri, hokkaido, japan. the bacterium formed yellow, translucent, circular and convex colonies. comparative 16s rrna gene sequence analysis indicated that the strain belonged to the genus flavobacterium, with the highest sequence similarities of 97.1 to 97.3 % to the type strains of flavobacterium frigidariu ... | 2010 | 19651729 |
| evaluation of marine bacteriocinogenic enterococci strains with inhibitory activity against fish-pathogenic gram-negative bacteria. | use of lactic acid bacteria (lab) as probiotics may provide an alternative to the use of antibiotics in aquaculture. lab strains isolated from wild fish viscera and skin were evaluated for bacteriocin production and safety aspects (lack of antibiotic resistance, production of virulence factors). 16s rrna gene sequences revealed the presence of enterococcus faecium (13 isolates) and lactococcus lactis (3 isolates) from fish samples. pulsed-field gel electrophoresis analyses of the 13 enterococci ... | 2016 | 26865233 |
| flavobacterium crassostreae sp. nov., isolated from pacific oyster. | a yellow-colored, rod-shaped, gram-negative bacterial strain, designated lpb0076t, was isolated from a pacific oyster. 16s rrna gene sequence analyses showed that the strain belonged to the genus flavobacterium. it had the highest sequence similarity to the type strains f. frigidarium (97.6%) and f. omnivorum (97.0%), and its similarities with all other species of the genus flavobacterium were below 97.0%. its genome size (3.02 mb), dna g+c content (36.0 mol%), predominant cellular fatty acids ( ... | 2016 | 27959776 |
