Gordonia effusa is a bacterium from the genus Gordonia which has been isolate from human sputum in Japan. [1] [2] [3]
Gordonia westfalica is a rubber-degrading actinomycete bacterium. It is aerobic and Gram-positive, with type strain Kb2T.
Gordonia is a genus of gram-positive, aerobic, catalase-positive bacterium in the Actinomycetota, closely related to the Rhodococcus, Mycobacterium, Skermania, and Nocardia genera. Gordonia bacteria are aerobic, motile, and non-sporulating. Gordonia is from the same lineage that includes Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The genus was discovered by Tsukamura in 1971 and named after American bacteriologist Ruth Gordon.. Many species are often found in the soil, while other species have been isolated from aquatic environments. Gordonia species are rarely known to cause infections in humans.
Gordonia amicalis is a dibenzothiophene-desulphurizing actinomycete with type strain IEGMT.
Gordonia alkaliphila is a Gram-positive, aerobic and non-motile bacterium from the genus of Gordonia which has been isolated from tidal flat sediments from the Yellow Sea in Korea.
Gordonia alkanivorans is a bacterium from the genus of Gordonia which has been isolated from soil which was contaminated with tar and phenol in Rositz in Germany. Gordonia alkanivorans has the ability to metabolize hexadecane. The strain RIPI90A of Gordonia alkanivorans can desulfurize dibenzothiophene.
Gordonia araii is a Gram-positive and aerobic bacterium from the genus of Gordonia which has been isolated from human sputum in Japan.
Gordonia caeni is a Gram-positive, strictly aerobic, short-rod-shaped and non-motile bacterium from the genus Gordonia which has been isolated from sludge from a sewage disposal plant in Daejeon in Korea.
Gordonia cholesterolivorans is a bacterium from the genus Gordonia which has been isolated from sewage sludge from a sewage treatment plant in Ciudad Real in Spain. Gordonia cholesterolivorans has the ability to degrade cholesterol.
Gordonia hankookensis is a Gram-positive, aerobic and non-motile bacterium from the genus Gordonia.
Gordonia humi is a Gram-positive and non-spore-forming bacterium from the genus Gordonia which has been isolated from soil near the mushroom Agaricus brasiliensis in Taiwan.
Gordonia iterans is a bacterium from the genus Gordonia which has been isolated from a patient with pneumonia.
Jongsikchunia kroppenstedtii is a bacterium from the genus Jongsikchunia which has been isolated from polluted stream in Gumi, Korea. Jongsikchunia kroppenstedtii has the ability to degrade phenol.
Gordonia malaquae is a bacterium from the genus Gordonia which has been isolated from sludge from a wastewater treatment plant in Taiwan.
Gordonia otitidis is a bacterium from the genus Gordonia which has been isolated from a patient with external otitis in Japan.
Gordonia paraffinivorans is a bacterium from the genus Gordonia which has been isolated from the Daqing Oil Field in China. Gordonia paraffinivorans has the ability to degrade hydrocarbon.
Gordonia phosphorivorans is a Gram-positive and non-spore-forming bacterium from the genus Gordonia which has been isolated from a wastewater treatment bioreactor in Aachen in Germany.
Gordonia rhizosphera is a bacterium from the genus Gordonia which has been isolated from rhizosphere soil from a mangrove plant in Japan.
Gordonia shandongensis is a bacterium from the genus Gordonia which has been isolated from farmland soil in China.
Gordonia sihwensis is a Gram-positive and nitrate-reducing bacterium from the genus of Gordonia which has been isolated from an autotrophic denitrification reactor in Sihwa in Korea.
Gordonia sp. nov. Q8 is a bacterium in the phylum of Actinomycetota. It was discovered in 2017 as one of eighteen new species isolated from the Jiangsu Wei5 oilfield in East China with the potential for bioremediation. Strain Q8 is rod-shaped and gram-positive with dimensions 1.0–4.0 μm × 0.5–1.2 μm and an optimal growth temperature of 40 °C. Phylogenetically, it is most closely related to Gordonia paraffinivorans and Gordonia alkaliphila, both of which are known bioremediators. Q8 was assigned as a novel species based on a <70% ratio of DNA homology with other Gordonia bacteria.
