TL;DR: Morphological, physiological and genotypic differences to these previously described and distinct genera support the description of a new genus and a new species, Roseovarius tolerans gen. nov, based on isolates from Ekho Lake.

TL;DR: Five antarctic strains represent a new genus and species for which the name of Hymenobacter roseosalivarius is proposed, and are concluded to represent a special phylogenetic group within the Cytophaga/Flavobacterium/Bacteroides major line of descent.

TL;DR: Ninety-seven strains of budding bacteria originating from various aquatic habitats and morphologically resembling planctomycetes were investigated taxonomically, achieving differentiation between R. baltica, B. marina and Pirellula staleyi by the integration of morphological, physiological, chemotaxonomic and genetic characteristics.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe morphological characteristics of two Pedomicrobium-like budding bacteria and show that when either strain was grown in the presence of iron or manganese, corresponding oxides accumulated on their surfaces, showing that polyanionic polymers previously deposited on the cells were associated with the metals.

TL;DR: The data indicate that these bacteria lack an ordinary Gram-negative type of murein and, instead, carry a stable protein envelope and showed considerable resistance against penicillin G, ampicillin, cephalotin and D-cycloserin.
