Acetatifactor muris is a bacterium from the genus of Acetatifactor which was isolated from the cecal content of an obese mouse in Freising-Weihenstephan in Germany. [1] [3] [4] The organism is rod-shaped, Gram-positive, anaerobic, and non-motile. [3] The organism does not form spores, and its GC-content is 48%. [3] It does not metabolize glucose, and it tests positive for phenylalanine arylamidase. [3] This species is the type strain for the genus Acetatifactor, which is commonly found in the guts of rodents. [5] The DSM type strain is 23669T, and the ATCC type strain is BAA-2170T. [3]

<i>Acaricomes phytoseiuli</i> Species of bacterium

Acaricomes phytoseiuli is a bacterium which is thought to be a pathogen of the mite Phytoseiulus persimilis. A. phytoseiuli causes a set of symptoms in the mite, known as nonresponding syndrome or NR syndrome. Dramatic changes in longevity, fecundity, and behavior are characteristic with this disease. The bacteria accumulate in the lumen of the mite's digestive tract and cause extreme degeneration of its epithelium. Infection with A. phytoseiuli greatly reduces the mite's attraction to herbivore-induced plant volatiles, and the mite is more prone to leave patches with ample prey. The disease is transmitted horizontally by means of feces and debris. The strain that was isolated was “CSC”. Differences between strain CSC compared to its closest phylogenetic neighbors are as follows: CSC uses glucose-1-phosphate and L-glutamic acid, and its colonies are more yellow in appearance as compared to its phylogenetic neighbors which are more cream/white in color.

Arthrobacter deserti is a Gram-positive, rod-shaped and non-motile bacterium species from the genus Arthrobacter which has been isolated from desert soil from the Turpan desert in China. The type strain for this specific bacterium is YIM CS25T. Arthrobacter deserti contains lysine in its peptidoglycan layer. This species of Arthrobacter is aerobic. The cells were non-sporulating and rod-to-coccus shaped. The cells are known to use at least 36 different types of carbon sources. The predominant menaquinone is MK-9(H2). The genomic DNA G+C content of the type strain is 68.3 mol%.

Brachybacterium is a genus of Gram positive, nonmotile bacteria. The cells are coccoid during the stationary phase, and irregular rods during the exponential phase. The genus name comes from Greek word brachy, meaning short, and Latin bacterium, meaning rods, referencing the short rods noted during the exponential phase.

Brachybacterium muris is a species of Gram positive, strictly aerobic, yellow-pigmented bacterium. The cells are coccoid during the stationary phase, and irregular rods during the exponential phase. It was first isolated from the liver of a laboratory mouse. The species was first described in 2003, and the name is derived from the Latin muris (mouse).

Varibaculum anthropi is a Gram-positive and strictly anaerobic bacterium from the genus of Varibaculum which has been isolated from human urine from Gothenburg in Sweden.
