A. sediminis |
Actibacter is a genus in the phylum Bacteroidota (Bacteria). [1] [2] The genus contains a single species, namely A. sediminis . [3]
A. sediminis, like other members of the phylum Bacteroidota, is Gram-negative and its major respiratory quinone is MK-6. Additionally, it grows aerobically and forms yellow-pigmented colonies which, however, do not contain Flexirubin-type pigments. This non-motile rod-shaped bacterium was isolated from tidal flat sediment of Dongmak on Ganghwa Island, South Korea.
The name Actibacter derives from:
Latin noun acta, seaside; Neo-Latin masculine gender noun, a rod bacter , nominally meaning "a rod", but in effect meaning a bacterium, rod; Neo-Latin masculine gender noun Actibacter, rod from the seaside. [3]
While the epithet sediminis is from Latin genitive case noun sediminis, of a sediment. [3]
Acetofilamentum is a genus in the phylum Bacteroidota (Bacteria).
Thermoanaerobacter is a genus in the phylum Bacillota (Bacteria). Members of this genus are thermophilic and anaerobic, several of them were previously described as Clostridium species and members of the now obsolete genera Acetogenium and Thermobacteroides
Actinophytocola is a genus in the phylum Actinomycetota (Bacteria).
Adhaeribacter is a genus in the phylum Bacteroidota (Bacteria).
Aestuariibacter is a genus in the class Gammaproteobacteria (Bacteria), composed of four species, namely A. aggregatus, A. halophilus, A. litoralis and the type species A. salexigens. These are strictly aerobic marine rod-shaped bacteria. They share many traits with the sister genus Alteromonas, the type genus of the family (Alteromonadaceae) and order (Alteromonadales).
Deferribacter is a genus in the phylum Deferribacterota (Bacteria).
Dendrosporobacter is a genus in the phylum Bacillota (Bacteria). Members of the class Negativicutes, stain gram negative, despite being firmicutes
Agarivorans is a genus in the phylum Pseudomonadota (Bacteria).
Agromyces is a genus in the phylum Actinomycetota (Bacteria).
Algoriphagus is a genus in the phylum Bacteroidota (Bacteria).
Algibacter is a genus in the phylum Bacteroidota (Bacteria).
Alishewanella is a genus in the phylum Pseudomonadota (bacteria).
Alkalibacillus is a genus in the phylum Bacillota (Bacteria).
Alkaliflexus is a genus in the phylum Bacteroidota (Bacteria).

Croceitalea is a genus in the phylum Bacteroidota (Bacteria).
Croceicoccus is a genus in the phylum Pseudomonadota (Bacteria).
Croceibacter is a genus in the phylum Bacteroidota (Bacteria).
Tamlana is a genus in the phylum Bacteroidota (Bacteria). Two species have been described so far: T. agarivorans and T. crocina.
Aestuariimicrobium is a singleton genus in the phylum Actinomycetota (Bacteria), whose first member, namely Aestuariimicrobium kwangyangense, was isolated from a diesel contaminated coastal site. Like all Actinobacteria, it is gram-positive and with a high CG content (69%). It is rod/coccoid shaped bacterium whose main quinone is menaquinone-7 (MK7).
