| marinomonas brasilensis sp. nov., isolated from the coral mussismilia hispida, and reclassification of marinomonas basaltis as a later heterotypic synonym of marinomonas communis. | a gram-negative, aerobic bacterium, designated strain r-40503(t), was isolated from mucus of the reef-builder coral mussismilia hispida, located in the são sebastião channel, são paulo, brazil. phylogenetic analyses revealed that strain r-40503(t) belongs to the genus marinomonas. the 16s rrna gene sequence similarity of r-40503(t) was above 97 % with the type strains of marinomonas vaga, m. basaltis, m. communis and m. pontica, and below 97 % with type strains of the other marinomonas species. ... | 2011 | 20562247 |
| marinomonas fungiae sp. nov., isolated from the coral fungia echinata from the andaman sea. | a novel aerobic marine bacterium, strain an44(t), was isolated from the coral fungia echinata sampled from the andaman sea, india. cells were gram-negative, motile and rod-shaped. oxidase and catalase tests were positive. heterotrophic growth was observed at ph 5.5-10 and at 16-42 °c, with optimum growth at ph 7-8 and 28 °c. strain an44(t) grew in the presence of 0.5-11% (w/v) nacl; the optimal nacl concentration for growth was 3-5%. the dna g+c content was 47.8 mol%. predominant cellular fatty ... | 2014 | 24105944 |
