| paludibacter propionicigenes gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel strictly anaerobic, gram-negative, propionate-producing bacterium isolated from plant residue in irrigated rice-field soil in japan. | a strictly anaerobic, propionate-producing bacterial strain (wb4t) isolated from rice plant residue in anoxic rice-field soil in japan was characterized phenotypically and phylogenetically. cells were gram-negative, non-motile, non-spore-forming, short rods. the strain utilized various sugars and produced propionate and acetate as major fermentation products with a small amount of succinate. the optimum growth temperature was 30 degrees c. oxidase, catalase and nitrate-reducing activities were n ... | 2006 | 16403864 |
| diversity and abundance of the bacterial 16s rrna gene sequences in forestomach of alpacas (lama pacos) and sheep (ovis aries). | two bacterial 16s rrna gene clone libraries were constructed from the forestomach of alpacas and sheep fed alfalfa. after the amplification using the universal 16s rrna gene primers, equal quantities of pcr products from the same species were mixed and used to construct the two libraries. sequence analysis showed that the 60 clones from alpacas were divided into 27 phylotypes with 25% clones affiliated with eubacterium sp. f1. the 60 clones from sheep were divided into 21 phylotypes with 7 phylo ... | 2010 | 20558310 |
| spatiotemporal development of the bacterial community in a tubular longitudinal microbial fuel cell. | the spatiotemporal development of a bacterial community in an exoelectrogenic biofilm was investigated in sucrose-fed longitudinal tubular microbial fuel cell reactors, consisting of two serially connected modules. the proportional changes in the microbial community composition were assessed by polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (dgge) and dna sequencing in order to relate them to the performance and stability of the bioelectrochemical system. the reproducibility o ... | 2011 | 21400098 |
| complete genome sequence of paludibacter propionicigenes type strain (wb4). | paludibacter propionicigenes ueki et al. 2006 is the type species of the genus paludibacter, which belongs to the family porphyromonadaceae. the species is of interest because of the position it occupies in the tree of life where it can be found in close proximity to members of the genus dysgonomonas. this is the first completed genome sequence of a member of the genus paludibacter and the third sequence from the family porphyromonadaceae. the 3,685,504 bp long genome with its 3,054 protein-codi ... | 2011 | 21475585 |
| butyricimonas synergistica gen. nov., sp. nov. and butyricimonas virosa sp. nov., butyric acid-producing bacteria in the family 'porphyromonadaceae' isolated from rat faeces. | two bacterial strains, designated mt01(t) and mt12(t), isolated from rat faeces were characterized by using a polyphasic taxonomic approach that included analysis of their phenotypic and biochemical features, cellular fatty acid profiles, menaquinone profiles and phylogeny based on 16s rrna gene sequences. the 16s rrna gene sequence analysis showed that these strains were members of the family 'porphyromonadaceae'. the strains shared 94 % 16s rrna gene sequence similarity with each other and wer ... | 2009 | 19542124 |
