Flavobacterium xanthum is a species of bacteria. [1]
Thermus is a genus of thermophilic bacteria. It is one of several bacteria belonging to the Deinococcus–Thermus group. Thermus species can be distinguished from other genera in the family Thermaceae as well as all other bacteria by the presence of eight conserved signature indels (CSIs) found in proteins such as adenylate kinase and replicative DNA helicase as well as 14 conserved signature proteins (CSPs) that are exclusively shared by members of this genus.
The class Flavobacteriia is composed of a single order of environmental bacteria. According to Bernardet et al., Flavobacteriia are Gram-negative aerobic rods, 2–5 μm long, 0.3–0.5 μm wide, with rounded or tapered ends that are motile by gliding, yellow colonies on agar, decompose several polysaccharides but not cellulose, G+C contents of 32–37%, and are widely distributed in soil and fresh and seawater habitats. In particular, Flavobacteriia are prominent members of marine biofilms. The type species Flavobacterium aquatile was isolated from a well in Kent, England.
Alteromonas is a genus of Proteobacteria found in sea water, either in the open ocean or in the coast. It is Gram-negative. Its cells are curved rods with a single polar flagellum.
The Chloroflexi or Chlorobacteria are a phylum of bacteria containing isolates with a diversity of phenotypes, including members that are aerobic thermophiles, which use oxygen and grow well in high temperatures; anoxygenic phototrophs, which use light for photosynthesis ; and anaerobic halorespirers, which uses halogenated organics as electron acceptors.
Halomonas subglaciescola is a Gram-negative halophilic Proteobacteria. It was first isolated from an Antarctic, hypersaline, meromictic lake, but has since been found in other environments, such as fermenting seafood. It has a largely oxidative mode of metabolism and it is motile through peritrichous flagellation. This species doesn't utilise glucose, and its type strain is ACAM 12.
Psychroflexus torquis is a species of bacterium. It is psychrophilic and its type strain is strain ACAM 623T. It has the ability to synthesize the polyunsaturated fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid and arachidonic acid.
Psychroflexus is a psychrophilic bacteria genus from the family of Flavobacteriaceae.
Belliella is a Gram-negative, aerobic, chemoheterotrophic and non-motile bacterial genus from the family of Cyclobacteriaceae.
Polaribacter is a Gram-negative, heterotrophic, psychrophilic or mesophilic and aerobic bacteria genus from the family of Flavobacteriaceae.
Dokdonia is a genus of bacteria from the family of Flavobacteriaceae. Dokdonia is named after Dokdo a Korean name for the Liancourt Rock which sovereignty disputed between Japan and Korea.
Flavobacterium antarcticum is a Gram-negative, aerobic and psychrotolerant bacterium from the genus of Flavobacterium which has been isolated from soil from a penguin habitat from King George Island in Antarctica.
Flavobacterium aquidurense is a Gram-negative and chemoheterotrophic bacterium from the genus of Flavobacterium which has been isolated from water from the Westhöfer Bach in Germany.
Flavobacterium cauense is a Gram-negative and rod-shaped bacterium from the genus of Flavobacterium which has been isolated from sediments of the Taihu Lake in China. Colonies of Flavobacterium cauense on R2a agar have been reported to be yellowish orange.
Flavobacterium chilense is a Gram-negative and non-endospore-forming bacterium from the genus of Flavobacterium which has been isolated from an external lesion from a rainbow trout from a fish farm in Chile.
Flavobacterium collinsense is a Gram-negative, aerobic and rod-shaped bacterium from the genus of Flavobacterium which has been isolated from till from the Collins glacier front on the Antarctica.
Flavobacterium daejeonense is a Gram-negative and rod-shaped bacterium from the genus of Flavobacterium which has been isolated from greenhouse soil from Daejeon in Korea.
Flavobacterium degerlachei is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped and psychrophilic bacterium from the genus of Flavobacterium which has been isolated from microbial mat from the Lake Ace in the Antarctica.
Flavobacterium faecale is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped and strictly aerobic bacterium from the genus of Flavobacterium which has been isolated from the faeces of antarctic penguins.
Salegentibacter salegens is a bacterium from the genus of Salegentibacter.
Cytophagales is an order of non-spore forming, rod-shaped, Gram-negative bacteria that move through a gliding or flexing motion. These chemoorganotrophs are important remineralizers of organic materials into micronutrients. They are widely dispersed in the environment, found in ecosystems including soil, freshwater, seawater and sea ice. Cytophagales is included in the Bacteroidetes phylum.
