| bacillus okhensis sp. nov., a halotolerant and alkalitolerant bacterium from an indian saltpan. | a strictly aerobic, rod-shaped bacterium (0.6-0.8 x2-3 microm), designated strain kh10-101t, was isolated from a saltpan (22 degrees 15' n, 69 degrees 1' e) in the vicinity of port okha, india. the creamish pigmented colonies of strain kh10-101t were round, flat and translucent with irregular margins and a smooth surface. the strain possessed up to three subpolar flagella, and was motile by a corkscrew motion. the strain grew optimally at 37 degrees c (temperature growth range 25-40 degrees c) i ... | 2006 | 16627657 |
| bacillus alkalisediminis sp. nov., a novel alkaliphilic and moderately halophilic bacterium isolated from the sediment of extremely shallow soda ponds. | alkaliphilic strains characterized by optimal growth at ph 9.0 and 5 % (w/v) nacl designated k1-25(t) and h3-93 were isolated from extremely shallow soda ponds located in hungary. cells of both strains were gram-positive non motile straight rods and formed central, ellipsoidal endospores with swollen sporangia. the isolates were aerobic, catalase positive, oxidase negative and contained a peptidoglycan of type a1γ based on meso-diaminopimelic acid. in both strains menaquinone-7 (mk-7) was the pr ... | 2010 | 20833886 |
| bacillus kiskunsagensis sp. nov., a novel alkaliphilic and moderately halophilic bacterium isolated from soda soil. | an alkaliphilic and moderately halophilic strain characterized by optimal growth at ph 9.0-10.0 and 7 % (w/v) nacl, and designated b16-24t, was isolated from the rhizosphere soil of the bayonet grass bolboschoenus maritimus at a soda pond in the kiskunság national park, hungary. cells of the strain were gram-staining-positive, non-motile, straight rods, and formed central, ellipsoidal endospores with slightly swollen sporangia. the isolate was facultative anaerobic, catalase positive, oxidase ne ... | 2017 | 28857030 |
| draft genome sequence of bacillus okhensis kh10-101t, a halo-alkali tolerant bacterium from indian saltpan. | we report the 4.86-mb draft genome sequence of bacillus okhensis strain kh10-101t, a halo-alkali tolerant rod shaped bacterium isolated from a salt pan near port of okha, india. this bacterium is a potential model to study the molecular response of bacteria to salt as well as alkaline stress, as it thrives under both high salt and high ph conditions. the draft genome consist of 4,865,284 bp with 38.2% g + c, 4952 predicted cds, 157 trnas and 8 rrnas. sequence was deposited at ddbj/embl/genbank u ... | 2015 | 26697400 |
