| fatal pneumonia due to serratia proteamaculans subsp. quinovora. | serratia proteamaculans subsp. quinovora was isolated from several samples (blood cultures, tracheal aspirates, pleural effusion) from a patient with pneumonia. this is the first clinical isolate and the first documented human infection caused by this organism. | 1993 | 8432835 |
| predominant enterobacteria on modified-atmosphere packaged meat and poultry. | enterobacteria on modified-atmosphere (ma) packaged meat (n = 54) and poultry (n = 32) products were enumerated, and 899 isolates were picked and ribotyped. for identification, 16s rrna genes of representative strains were sequenced and analyzed. altogether 54 (60%) of the samples contained enterobacteria >10(4) cfu/g. in 34% of the poultry samples, enterobacteria counts were >10(6) cfu/g suggesting that enterobacteria may contribute to spoilage of ma packaged poultry. the enterobacteria identif ... | 2012 | 23541191 |
| gallaecimonas pentaromativorans gen. nov., sp. nov., a bacterium carrying 16s rrna gene heterogeneity and able to degrade high-molecular-mass polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. | a gram-negative, rod-shaped, halotolerant bacterium, designated strain cee_131(t), which degraded high-molecular-mass polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons of four and five rings, was isolated from intertidal sediment of corcubion ria in cee, a coruña, spain. direct sequencing showed ambiguities and suggested heterogeneity. cloned 16s rrna gene sequence pcr products yielded five different sequences varying at five positions. strain cee_131(t) showed rather distant relationships to its phylogeneticall ... | 2010 | 19654338 |
| characterization of serratia isolates from soil, ecological implications and transfer of serratia proteamaculans subsp. quinovora grimont et al. 1983 to serratia quinivorans corrig., sp. nov. | eleven strains of serratia were isolated from different soils and the guts of invertebrates and characterized by their sensitivity to eight indigenous bacteriophages. they were also classified according to bacteriocin production and sensitivity, biolog plate and api 20e strip profiles and 16s rrna sequence information. one strain was thus identified as serratia plymuthica, another as serratia fonticola. the remaining strains were shown to be closely related to serratia proteamaculans subsp. quin ... | 2002 | 12508898 |
| serratia bozhouensis sp. nov., isolated from sewage samples of a dairy farm. | a gram-negative, rod-shaped, salt-tolerant, non-pigmented, and non-spore-forming bacterium, designated strain w1t (type strain cicc 23797 = cgmcc1.14949), was isolated from sewage samples of a dairy farm in bozhou, anhui, china. strain w1 was resistant to lincomycin, troleandomycin, rifamycin, and vancomycin. sequence analysis of the 16s rdna gene revealed that the strain showed sequence similarity of 98.2% with the closest related species serratia quinivorans cp6at. the genomic dna g+c content ... | 2017 | 28424942 |
| serratia myotis sp. nov. and serratia vespertilionis sp. nov., isolated from bats hibernating in caves. | during the study of bacteria associated with bats affected by white-nose syndrome hibernating in caves in the czech republic, we isolated two facultatively anaerobic, gram-stain-negative bacteria, designated strains 12(t) and 52(t). strains 12(t) and 52(t) were motile, rod-like bacteria (0.5-0.6 µm in diameter; 1-1.3 µm long), with optimal growth at 20-35 °c and ph 6-8. on the basis of the almost complete sequence of their 16s rrna genes they should be classified within the genus serratia; the c ... | 2015 | 25281728 |
| non-specific transient mutualism between the plant parasitic nematode, bursaphelenchus xylophilus, and the opportunistic bacterium serratia quinivorans bxf1, a plant-growth promoting pine endophyte with antagonistic effects. | the aim of this study is to understand the biological role of serratia quinivorans bxf1, a bacterium commonly found associated with bursaphelenchus xylophilus, the plant parasitic nematode responsible for pine wilt disease. therefore, we studied strain bxf1 effect in pine wilt disease. we found that strain bxf1 promoted in vitro nematode reproduction. moreover, the presence of bacteria led to the absence of nematode chitinase gene (bxcht-1) expression, suggesting an effect for bacterial chitinas ... | 2016 | 27768814 |
