Stenotrophomonas is a genus of Gram-negative bacteria, comprising at least ten species. The main reservoirs of Stenotrophomonas are soil and plants. Stenotrophomonas species range from common soil organisms to opportunistic human pathogens, the molecular taxonomy of the genus is still somewhat unclear.
Mycobacterium chlorophenolicum is a species of the phylum Actinobacteria, belonging to the genus Mycobacterium.
Herbaspirillum hiltneri is a Gram-negative bacterium of the genus Herbaspirillum isolated from surface-sterilized wheat roots. It was collected in the Oberpfalz in Germany.
Herbaspirillum lusitanum is a nitrogen-fixing bacterium found in root nodules of common beans. Phylogenetic analyses have shown this bacterium belongs to the genus Herbaspirillum. H. lusitanum lacks the nif gene. A nodD-like gene is present, but no other nod genes have been identified. The lack of nif and nod genes suggests H. lusitanum is an opportunistic bacterium capable of colonizing root nodules, but is unable to fix nitrogen.
Herbaspirillum rhizosphaerae is a Gram-negative bacterium of the genus Herbaspirillum isolated from rhizosphere soil of Allium victorialis var. platyphyllum on Ulleung Island in Korea.
Herbaspirillum aquaticum is a bacterium of the genus Herbaspirillum.
Pseudarthrobacter chlorophenolicus, also known as Arthrobacter chlorophenolicus, is a species of bacteria capable of degrading high concentrations of 4-chlorophenol, hence its name. As such. It may be useful in bioremediation. Its type strain is DSM 12829T.
Desulfitobacterium hafniense is a species of gram positive bacteria, its type strain is DCB-2T..
Alcanivorax pacificus is a pyrene-degrading marine gammaprotobacterium. It is of the genus Alcanivorax, a group of marine bacteria known for degrading hydrocarbons. When originally proposed, the genus Alcanivorax comprised six distinguishable species. However, A. pacificus, a seventh strain, was isolated from deep sea sediments in the West Pacific Ocean by Shanghai Majorbio Bio-pharm Technology Co., Ltd. in 2011. A. pacificus’s ability to degrade hydrocarbons can be employed for cleaning up oil-contaminated oceans through bioremediation. The genomic differences present in this strain of Alcanivorax that distinguish it from the original consortium are important to understand to better utilize this bacteria for bioremediation.
Pseudarthrobacter defluvii, with the old name Arthrobacter defluvii, is a bacterium species from the genus of Pseudarthrobacter which has been isolated from sewage from the Geumho River near Daegu in Korea. Arthrobacter defluvii has the ability to degrade 4-chlorophenol.
Paenarthrobacter nicotinovorans, also known as Arthrobacter Nicotinovorans, is a Gram-positive and aerobic bacterium species from the genus of Paenarthrobacter. Before the year 2016, this bacterium species was said to be a species of Arthrobacter genus. The bacterium species is reclassified in 2016 to be a member of Paenarthrobacter. Therefore it had a new name as Paenarthrobacter nicotinovorans. This bacterium has the ability to degrade atrazine, nicotine and creatine. and produces nicotine dehydrogenase
Paenarthrobacter nitroguajacolicus, other name of its is Arthrobacter nitroguajacolicus, is a bacterium species from the genus of Paenarthrobacter which has been isolated from soil in the Czech Republic. Arthrobacter nitroguajacolicus has the ability to degrade 4-nitroguaiacol.
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.
Microbacterium oxydans is a Gram-positive bacterium from the genus of Microbacterium which occurs in human clinical specimens. Microbacterium oxydans has the ability to degrade alginate and laminarin.
Novosphingobium lentum is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming, psychrotolerant and non-motile bacterium from the genus of Novosphingobium which has been isolated from chlorophenol-contaminated groundwater in Finland. Novosphingobium lentum has the ability to degrade chlorophenol.
Noviherbaspirillum aurantiacum is a Gram-negative and motile bacterium from the genus of Noviherbaspirillum which has been isolated from old volcanic mountain soil.
Noviherbaspirillum autotrophicum is a Gram-negative and rod-shaped bacterium from the genus of Noviherbaspirillum which has been isolated from rice paddy soil.
Noviherbaspirillum massiliense is a bacterium from the genus of Noviherbaspirillum which has been isolated from human faeces.
Sphingopyxis chilensis is a chlorophenol-degrading bacterium from the genus of Sphingopyxis which has been isolated from sediments from the Biobio river in Chile.
