| pelagicoccus mobilis gen. nov., sp. nov., pelagicoccus albus sp. nov. and pelagicoccus litoralis sp. nov., three novel members of subdivision 4 within the phylum 'verrucomicrobia', isolated from seawater by in situ cultivation. | five gram-negative, white-pigmented, spherical, chemoheterotrophic bacteria were isolated from seawater from japan and the republic of palau by use of an in situ cultivation technique. phylogenetic analyses based on 16s rrna gene sequences indicated that the five novel isolates, 02pa-ca-133(t), ym14-201(t), h-mn57(t), h-mn48 and mn1-156, were closely affiliated to members of subdivision 4 within the phylum 'verrucomicrobia'. the novel isolates shared 96-100 % sequence similarity with each other ... | 2007 | 17625161 |
| pelagicoccus croceus sp. nov., a novel marine member of the family puniceicoccaceae within the phylum 'verrucomicrobia' isolated from seagrass. | an obligately aerobic, spherical, non-motile, pale-yellow pigmented bacterium was isolated from a piece of leaf of seagrass, enhalus acoroides (l.f.) royle, grown in okinawa, japan and was subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. phylogenetic analyses based on 16s rrna gene sequences revealed that the novel isolate n5fb36-5(t) shared approximately 96-98 % sequence similarity with the species of the genus pelagicoccus of the family puniceicoccaceae within the phylum 'verrucomicrobia'. the dna-d ... | 2007 | 18048742 |
