| knoellia sinensis gen. nov., sp. nov. and knoellia subterranea sp. nov., two novel actinobacteria isolated from a cave. | two novel strains of the class actinobacteria were isolated from a cave in china. cells of both strains were gram-positive, non-motile, non-spore-forming and not acid-fast and exhibited a rod/coccus growth cycle. both isolates grew well on complex organic media under aerobic conditions. their cell wall peptidoglycan contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as diagnostic diamino acid. the acyl type of the glycan chain of peptidoglycan was acetyl. the major respiratory quinone was mk-8(h4). the cellular ... | 2002 | 11837319 |
| knoellia flava sp. nov., isolated from pig manure. | a gram-positive, aerobic, non spore-forming actinobacterial strain, designated strain tl1(t), was isolated from pig manure in wuhan, china. the cell wall peptidoglycan contained meso-diaminopimelic (meso-dap). the major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine (pe), phosphatidylinositol (pi) and diphosphatidylglycerol (dpg). the predominant menaquinone was mk-8(h4). the major fatty acids (>10%) were iso-c(16:0), iso-c(15:0) and c(17:1)?8c. the genomic dna g+c content was 70.9 mol%. phylogeneti ... | 2011 | 21441369 |
| knoellia aerolata sp. nov., isolated from an air sample in korea. | an aerobic, gram-positive, non-motile, non-spore-forming, rod-coccus-shaped bacterium, strain 5317s-21(t), was isolated from an air sample from suwon city, republic of korea. the isolate was able to grow within a ph range of 5.0-9.0 and a temperature range of 5-35 degrees c and it tolerated up to 2 % (w/v) nacl. the cell-wall peptidoglycan contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as diagnostic diamino acid. the predominant isoprenoid quinone was mk-8(h(4)). the major polar lipids were phosphatidylinos ... | 2007 | 18048739 |
