| simiduia agarivorans gen. nov., sp. nov., a marine, agarolytic bacterium isolated from shallow coastal water from keelung, taiwan. | a gram-negative, heterotrophic, agarolytic, marine bacterium, designated strain sa1t, was isolated from a seawater sample collected in the shallow coastal region of keelung, taiwan. cells were straight to slightly curved rods. nearly all of the cells were non-motile and non-flagellated during the exponential phase of growth in broth cultures; a few cells (<1 %) were motile and were considered to have monotrichous flagella. the isolate required nacl for growth and grew optimally at 30-35 degrees ... | 2008 | 18398190 |
| umboniibacter marinipuniceus gen. nov., sp. nov., a marine gammaproteobacterium isolated from the mollusc umbonium costatum from the sea of japan. | two bacterial strains, kmm 3891(t) and kmm 3892, were isolated from internal tissues of the marine mollusc umbonium costatum collected from the sea of japan. the novel isolates were gram-negative, aerobic, faint pink-reddish-pigmented, rod-shaped, non-motile, stenohaline and psychrotolerant bacteria that were unable to degrade most tested complex polysaccharides. polar lipids consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol. fatty acid analysis revealed c(17 ... | 2010 | 19654350 |
| simiduia areninigrae sp. nov., a novel agarolytic bacterium isolated from sea sand. | during a study intended to screen for agar degrading bacteria, strain m2-5(t), was isolated from black sand off the shore of jeju island, republic of korea. strain m2-5(t) exhibited agarase activity and had a ╬▓-agarase gene with 62% amino acid sequence identity to the ╬▓-agarase gene of microbulbifer thermotolerans jamb-a94. the isolate was closely related to the genus simiduia but was clearly discernible from the reported simiduia species, according to polyphasic analysis. strain m2-5(t) was g ... | 2011 | 21669928 |
