bacillus pocheonensis sp. nov., a moderately halotolerant, aerobic bacterium isolated from soil of a ginseng field. | a gram-positive, non-motile, endospore-forming bacterial strain, designated gsoil 420t, was isolated from soil of a ginseng field in pocheon province, south korea, and was characterized, using a polyphasic approach, in order to determine its taxonomic position. the novel isolate consisted of strictly aerobic, rod-shaped cells and was able to grow in medium supplemented with up to 12% nacl at 25 degrees c and ph 6.5-7.0. comparative 16s rrna gene sequence analysis showed that strain gsoil 420t fe ... | 2007 | 17978214 |
bacillus mesophilum sp. nov., strain iitr-54t, a novel 4-chlorobiphenyl dechlorinating bacterium. | the taxonomic position of a gram-positive, endospore-forming bacterium isolated from soil sample collected from an industrial site was analyzed by a polyphasic approach. the strain designated as iitr-54t matched most of the phenotypic and chemical characteristics of the genus bacillus and represents a novel species. it was found to biodegrade 4-chlorobiphenyl through dechlorination and was isolated through enrichment procedure from an aged polychlorinated biphenyl-contaminated soil. both resting ... | 2014 | 24807729 |
bacillus ginsengisoli sp. nov., isolated from soil of a ginseng field. | a novel bacterial strain dcy53(t) was isolated from a soil sample from a ginseng field and was characterized using a polyphasic approach. cells were gram-reaction-positive, rod-shaped, endospore-forming and motile with flagella. the strain was aerobic, catalase- and oxidase-positive, optimum growth temperature and ph were 30-37 °c and 6.0-7.5, respectively. on the basis of 16s rrna gene sequence analysis, strain dcy53(t) was shown to belong to the genus bacillus and the closest phylogenetic rela ... | 2013 | 22611202 |
bacillus herbersteinensis sp. nov. | two bacterial strains, designated d-1,5a(t) and d-1,5b, were isolated from a medieval wall painting in the chapel of castle herberstein, styria (austria). the gram-positive, heterotrophic, aerobic, spore-forming rods showed nearly identical whole-cell protein patterns, identical genomic fingerprints and identical physiological profiles, demonstrating their relationship at the species level. both strains contained meso-diaminopimelic acid in their peptidoglycan, possessed a quinone system compris ... | 2005 | 16166719 |
bacillus novalis sp. nov., bacillus vireti sp. nov., bacillus soli sp. nov., bacillus bataviensis sp. nov. and bacillus drentensis sp. nov., from the drentse a grasslands. | a group of 42 isolates were isolated from the soil of several disused hay fields, in the drentse a agricultural research area (the netherlands), that were taken out of production at different times. the group represents hitherto-uncultured bacillus lineages that have previously been found, by a non-cultural method, to be predominant in soil. the strains were subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study, including (gtg)5-pcr, 16s rdna sequence analysis, dna-dna hybridizations, dna base-ratio determi ... | 2004 | 14742458 |
bacillus ectoiniformans sp. nov., a halotolerant bacterium isolated from sediments of south china sea. | a halotolerant gram-positive bacterium, which was isolated from sediment samples of south china sea, was subjected to a taxonomic study. the strain ne-14t, grew well at a wide temperature and ph ranges, 10.0-45.0 °c and 6-10, with an optimum at 30 °c and ph 8.0, respectively. the growth of strain ne-14t was occurred at total salt concentrations between 0-10% (w/v) with optimum at 2% (w/v). phylogenetic analysis based on the 16s rrna sequence comparison indicated that the isolate belongs to the g ... | 2015 | 26559004 |
bacillus horneckiae sp. nov., isolated from a spacecraft-assembly clean room. | five gram-stain-positive, motile, aerobic strains were isolated from a clean room of the kennedy space center where the phoenix spacecraft was assembled. all strains are rod-shaped, spore-forming bacteria, whose spores were resistant to uv radiation up to 1000 j m(-2). the spores were subterminally positioned and produced an external layer. a polyphasic taxonomic study including traditional biochemical tests, fatty acid analysis, cell-wall typing, lipid analyses, 16s rrna gene sequencing and dna ... | 2010 | 19666815 |
