| halioglobus japonicus gen. nov., sp. nov., and halioglobus pacificus sp. nov., within the class gammaproteobacteria, isolated from seawater. | two coccoid and non-motile bacteria were isolated from seawater in the northwestern pacific ocean near japan. these strains, designated s1-36(t) and s1-72(t), were gram-negative, obligately aerobic, heterotrophic and catalase-negative. nitrite was reduced to nitrogen. both strains required nacl for growth, with an optimum growth at 2% nacl and grow at 15- 30°c with an optimum temperature at 20- 25°c. genomic dna g+c contents of strains s1-36(t) and s1-72(t) were 59.6 mol% and 59.4 mol%, respecti ... | 2011 | 21986723 |
| chromocurvus halotolerans gen. nov., sp. nov., a gammaproteobacterial obligately aerobic anoxygenic phototroph, isolated from a canadian hypersaline spring. | a strain eg19(t) of aerobic bacteria able to form pleomorphic cells was isolated from a brine spring runoff stream in the west central region of the province of manitoba, canada. the pale pinkish purple strain contained bacteriochlorophyll a incorporated into light-harvesting i and reaction center complexes. its inability to grow under anaerobic illuminated conditions prompted designation as a member of the functional group known as aerobic anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria. phylogenetic analysis ... | 2011 | 21479531 |
| mangrove bacterial diversity and the impact of oil contamination revealed by pyrosequencing: bacterial proxies for oil pollution. | mangroves are transitional coastal ecosystems in tropical and sub-tropical regions and represent biologically important and productive ecosystems. despite their great ecological and economic importance, mangroves are often situated in areas of high anthropogenic influence, being exposed to pollutants, such as those released by oil spills. | 2011 | 21399677 |
| haliea mediterranea sp. nov., a marine gammaproteobacterium. | strain 7sm29t, an aerobic marine gammaproteobacterium isolated from seawater from castellón, spain, was characterized by classical phenotyping, chemotaxonomy and 16s rrna gene sequence analysis. strain 7sm29t was found to be closely related to strains in the genus haliea and to congregibacter litoralis kt71t, with which a genus-level cluster was formed within the nor5/om60 clade of the gammaproteobacteria. strain 7sm29t was a short, motile rod with a tuft of three polar flagella. the strain grew ... | 2010 | 19767360 |
| haliea rubra sp. nov., a member of the gammaproteobacteria from the mediterranean sea. | a novel aerobic, gram-negative bacterium, designated strain cm41_15a(t), was isolated from the surface of coastal waters of the north-western mediterranean sea. cells were non-motile straight rods that formed red colonies on marine agar medium. the g+c content of the genomic dna was 65 mol %. phylogenetic analysis of the 16s rrna gene sequence placed the strain in the genus haliea within the class gammaproteobacteria. on the basis of the 16s rrna gene sequence comparison and physiological and bi ... | 2009 | 19406817 |
| haliea salexigens gen. nov., sp. nov., a member of the gammaproteobacteria from the mediterranean sea. | a novel aerobic, gram-negative bacterium, designated 3x/a02/235t, was isolated from the surface of coastal waters in the north-western mediterranean sea. cells were motile, straight rods, 1.6 microm long and 0.5 microm wide, and formed cream colonies on marine agar medium. the g+c content of the genomic dna was 61 mol%. phylogenetic analysis of the 16s rrna gene sequence placed the strain in the class gammaproteobacteria and within the family alteromonadaceae. on the basis of 16s rrna gene seque ... | 2008 | 18450719 |
