Allochromatium phaeobacterium (A. phaeobacterium) is a phototrophic and rod-shaped purple sulfur bacterium from the genus of Allochromatium which has been isolated from brackish water in Bheemli, Visakhapatnam, India. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
A. phaeobacterium was first isolated from anoxic sediment in 2007, and isolated on a modified Bielbl and Pfennig medium. [5]
A. phaeobacterium is a rod-shaped, gram-negative species of bacteria. This species appears brown in color, and is 1.0–1.5x2.0–4.0 in length. A. phaeobacterium is motile and reproduces through binary fission. [5] It has been observed growing photoautotrophically, photolithoautotrophically, photolithotrophically, and photoorganoheterotrophically. [5]
Absoprtion spectra has confirmed photoreceptors bacteriochlorophyll α, rhodopinals, and carotenoids. [5]
A. phaeobacterium has been partially sequenced through 16s rRNA gene sequencing with a sequence of approximately 1400 base pairs. The G/C content is 59.8%. [5] Based on phylogenetic analysis from this 16s sequence, Allochromatium phaeobacterium is considered morphologically and physiologically distinct from others in the Allochromatium genus. [5]
The Pasteurellaceae comprise a large family of Gram-negative bacteria. Most members live as commensals on mucosal surfaces of birds and mammals, especially in the upper respiratory tract. Pasteurellaceae are typically rod-shaped, and are a notable group of facultative anaerobes. Their biochemical characteristics can be distinguished from the related Enterobacteriaceae by the presence of oxidase, and from most other similar bacteria by the absence of flagella.
Hoeflea olei is a Gram-negative and rod-shaped bacteria from the genus of Hoeflea which has been isolated from water in Kerala in India. Hoeflea olei has the ability to degrade diesel oil.
Pseudonocardia parietis is a bacterium from the genus of Pseudonocardia which has been isolated from a wall which was colonized with mould in Stuttgart in Germany.
Hymenobacter mucosus is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped and non-motile bacterium from the genus Hymenobacter which has been isolated from soil from the Jiuxiang cave in China. It produces red, watermelonlike pigment from the plectaniaxanthin series of carotenoid pigments. The 16S RNA analysis has revealed its similarity to Hymenobacter tibetensis, Hymenobacter gelipurpurascens and Hymenobacter xinjiangensis
