| reclassification of [cytophaga] marinoflava reichenbach 1989 as leeuwenhoekiella marinoflava gen. nov., comb. nov. and description of leeuwenhoekiella aequorea sp. nov. | five heterotrophic, aerobic, halotolerant and pigmented bacterial strains with gliding motility were isolated from antarctic sea water; one other isolate was collected from the sea urchin strongylocentrotus intermedius in the gulf of peter the great in the sea of japan. 16s rrna gene sequence analysis indicated that the strains are members of the family flavobacteriaceae, the nearest neighbour (with 97.1 % sequence similarity) being the misclassified species [cytophaga] marinoflava. dna-dna hybr ... | 2005 | 15879230 |
| leeuwenhoekiella blandensis sp. nov., a genome-sequenced marine member of the family flavobacteriaceae. | bacteria in the family flavobacteriaceae are increasingly recognized to play important roles in the degradation of organic matter during and following algal blooms. a novel heterotrophic, rod-shaped, aerobic, yellow-pigmented and gliding bacterium was isolated from a seawater sample collected in the bay of blanes in the north-western mediterranean sea. analysis of its 16s rrna gene sequence, retrieved from the whole-genome sequence, showed that the bacterium was closely related to members of the ... | 2006 | 16825617 |
| galbibacter mesophilus gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel member of the family flavobacteriaceae. | a gram-negative, yellow-pigmented, rod-shaped bacterial strain (mok-17(t)) was isolated from marine sediment sampled in okinawa island, japan. based on analysis of the almost complete sequence of its 16s rrna gene, strain mok-17(t) was found to belong to the family flavobacteriaceae. strain mok-17(t) showed highest 16s rrna gene sequence similarity (91 %) to leeuwenhoekiella marinoflava and robiginitalea biformata. in a phylogenetic tree based on the 16s rrna gene, strain mok-17(t) formed a deep ... | 2007 | 17473243 |
| leptobacterium flavescens gen. nov., sp. nov., a marine member of the family flavobacteriaceae, isolated from marine sponge and seawater. | six obligately aerobic, gram-negative, non-motile, pale-yellow-pigmented, rod-shaped bacterial strains, designated ym3-301(t), hg868, 04pa2 co4-8b, 04pa2 co4-99a, 04pa2 018sw-3 and 04pa2 018sw-18, were isolated from a marine sponge and seawater and were subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic investigation. phylogenetic analyses based on 16s rrna gene sequences revealed that the novel isolates were affiliated with the family flavobacteriaceae (phylum bacteroidetes) and that they showed the highest s ... | 2009 | 19196755 |
| lutaonella thermophila gen. nov., sp. nov., a moderately thermophilic member of the family flavobacteriaceae isolated from a coastal hot spring. | a yellow-pigmented, gram-staining-negative, aerobic, non-motile, moderately thermophilic, rod-shaped bacterium, cc-mhsw-2t, was isolated from a coastal hot spring of green island (lutao), located off taituang, taiwan. the 16s rrna gene sequence analysis demonstrated that it shared <93.2% sequence similarity with aquimarina species. the organism was unable to produce acid from carbohydrates, but it could utilize a number of organic acids and amino acids. menaquinone 6 (mk-6) was the major respira ... | 2009 | 19605713 |
| leeuwenhoekiella palythoae sp. nov., a new member of the family flavobacteriaceae. | the taxonomic status of a novel, heterotrophic, strictly aerobic, gliding and yellow-orange-pigmented bacterium (strain kmm 6264(t)), associated with the coral palythoa, was determined. the 16s rrna gene sequence analysis indicated that strain kmm 6264(t) clustered with the recognized species of the genus leeuwenhoekiella of the family flavobacteriaceae with 96.4-98.2 % sequence similarity. dna-dna reassociation levels between the isolate and the type strains of leeuwenhoekiella species were 15- ... | 2009 | 19643875 |
