| proposal of pseudorhodobacter ferrugineus gen nov, comb nov, for a non-photosynthetic marine bacterium, agrobacterium ferrugineum, related to the genus rhodobacter. | the marine gram-negative non-photosynthetic bacterium, agrobacterium ferrugineum iam 12616(t) forms one cluster with the species of the photosynthetic genus rhodobacter in phylogenetic trees based on molecules of 16s rrna, 23s rrna and dna gyrases. agrobacterium ferrugineum and rhodobacter species are similar in that growth occurs without nacl in the culture medium (optimal nacl concentration for growth of p. ferrugineus is 1%) and their major hydroxy fatty acid compositions are 3-hydroxy decano ... | 2002 | 12682869 |
| reclassification of agrobacterium ferrugineum lmg 128 as hoeflea marina gen. nov., sp. nov. | members of the species agrobacterium ferrugineum were isolated from marine environments. the type strain of this species (= lmg 22047(t) = atcc 25652(t)) was recently reclassified in the new genus pseudorhodobacter, in the order 'rhodobacterales' of the class 'alphaproteobacteria'. strain lmg 128 (= atcc 25654) was also initially classified as belonging to the species agrobacterium ferrugineum; however, the nearly complete 16s rrna gene sequence of this strain indicated that it does not belong w ... | 2005 | 15879249 |
| pseudorhodobacter aquimaris sp. nov., isolated from seawater, and emended description of the genus pseudorhodobacter uchino et al. 2002. | a gram-staining-negative, aerobic, motile and ovoid-shaped bacterial strain, designated hdw-19t, was isolated from seawater of the west coast, korea, and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. strain hdw-19t grew optimally at ph 7.0-8.0, at 30 °c and in the presence of 2-3 % (w/v) nacl. bacteriochlorophyll a was not produced by strain hdw-19t. neighbour-joining, maximum-likelihood and maximum-parsimony phylogenetic trees based on 16s rrna gene sequences showed that strain hdw-19t clustered w ... | 2011 | 21335494 |
