Journal ArticleDOI

Review of Desulfotomaculum species and proposal of the genera Desulfallas gen. nov., Desulfofundulus gen. nov., Desulfofarcimen gen. nov. and Desulfohalotomaculum gen. nov.

TL;DR: The results of phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that the genus Desulfotomaculum already has lost the clustering monophyly and was segregated into some distinct groups with low sequence similarity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Desulfatitalea tepidiphila gen. nov., sp. nov., a sulfate-reducing bacterium isolated from tidal flat sediment.

TL;DR: A novel sulfate-reducing bacterium, strain S28bF(T), was isolated from tidal flat sediment from Tokyo Bay, Japan and revealed that the isolated strain belonged to the class Deltaproteobacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Desulfosarcina widdelii sp. nov. and Desulfosarcina alkanivorans sp. nov., hydrocarbon-degrading sulfate-reducing bacteria isolated from marine sediment and emended description of the genus Desulfosarcina.

TL;DR: Two sulfate reducers from oil-polluted marine sediments of Shuaiba, Kuwait are proposed to form two novel species of the genus Desulfosarcina on the basis of phenotypic and phylogenetic analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hymenobacter nivis sp. nov., isolated from red snow in Antarctica.

TL;DR: Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that the novel isolate was a member of the genus Hymenobacter, and the strain showed highest sequence similarity with H. antarcticus VUG-A42aaT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Limnochorda pilosa gen. nov., sp. nov., a moderately thermophilic, facultatively anaerobic, pleomorphic bacterium and proposal of Limnochordaceae fam. nov., Limnochordales ord. nov. and Limnochordia classis nov. in the phylum Firmicutes.

TL;DR: Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the isolate was distantly related to members of the family Symbiobacteriaceae and family XVII Incertae Sedis in the class Clostridia, and they formed a cluster separate from canonical species of the phylum Firmicutes.
