| flaviramulus basaltis gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel member of the family flavobacteriaceae isolated from seafloor basalt. | four yellow-pigmented, gram-negative, motile strains were isolated from the glassy rind of submarine basaltic lava from the jan mayen area of the norwegian/greenland sea at a depth of 1300 m below sea level. the four strains had identical 16s rrna gene sequences and were indistinguishable in all phenotypic and chemotypic tests performed, indicating that they belonged to the same species. the strains had an obligately aerobic chemo-organotrophic metabolism. the strains were capable of growth at t ... | 2006 | 17012579 |
| postechiella marina gen. nov., sp. nov., isolated from seawater. | a gram-negative, strictly aerobic, non-motile, yellow-pigmented bacterium, designated strain m091t, was isolated from seawater of damupo beach in pohang, republic of korea and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. it grew optimally at 25 °c, ph 7.0-8.0, and in the presence of 3 % nacl. a comparative 16s rrna gene sequences study revealed that strain m091t formed a distinct lineage within the family flavobacteriaceae and was distinguished from the related genera flaviramulus (95.1 % sequence ... | 2011 | 21856980 |
