TLDR
A Gram-negative, strictly aerobic, yellow-pigmented rod, isolated from soil collected from the waste liquid treatment facility of Bafeng Pharmaceutical Company in the city of Enshi, Hubei Province, China, represents a novel species of the genus Flavobacterium.Abstract:
A Gram-negative, strictly aerobic, yellow-pigmented rod, designated DK69T, was isolated from soil collected from the waste liquid treatment facility of Bafeng Pharmaceutical Company in the city of Enshi, Hubei Province, China. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences placed strain DK69T in the genus
Flavobacterium
of the family
Flavobacteriaceae
. The highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities were found with
Flavobacterium cauense
R2A-7T (96.9 %),
Flavobacterium saliperosum
AS 1.3801T (96.3 %) and
Flavobacterium suncheonense
GH29-5T (95.7 %). The major fatty acids (≥5 %) were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C17 : 1ω9c, C15 : 0, iso-C17 : 0 3-OH and iso-C15 : 0 3-OH. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, one unidentified aminolipid and one unidentified lipid. The major respiratory quinone was menaquinone-6. The genomic DNA G+C content was 34.4 mol%. Strain DK69T represents a novel species of the genus
Flavobacterium
, for which the name Flavobacterium enshiense sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DK69T ( = CCTCC AB 2011144T = KCTC 23775T). Emended descriptions of the genus
Flavobacterium
and
Flavobacterium cauense
,
Flavobacterium saliperosum
and
Flavobacterium suncheonense
are also proposed.read more

TL;DR: A large collection of type-strain genomes from Bacteroidetes and closely related phyla are assessed based on the principles of phylogenetic classification and trees inferred from genome-scale data and corrected G+C content values have a significantly better fit to the phylogeny.

TL;DR: While a significant degree of phylogenetic conservation was detected in all phenotypic characters investigated, the overall fit to the tree varied considerably, which is one of the probable causes of misclassifications in the past, and underline the pitfalls inherent in phylogenies based upon single gene sequences.

Calcium precipitate induced aerobic granulation.
TL;DR: This study refined existing aerobic granulation mechanisms as a sequencing process including formation of calcium precipitate under alkaline pH to form inorganic cores, followed by bacterial attachment and growth on these cores to form the exopolysaccharide matrix.

Confidence limits on phylogenies: an approach using the bootstrap.
TL;DR: The recently‐developed statistical method known as the “bootstrap” can be used to place confidence intervals on phylogenies and shows significant evidence for a group if it is defined by three or more characters.

Toward Defining the Course of Evolution: Minimum Change for a Specific Tree Topology
TL;DR: A method is presented that is asserted to provide all hypothetical ancestral character states that are consistent with describing the descent of the present-day character states in a minimum number of changes of state using a predetermined phylogenetic relationship among the taxa represented.
