Intrasporangium oryzae (formerly Humihabitans oryzae) is a species of Gram positive, strictly aerobic bacterium. The species was initially isolated from rice paddy soil. The species was first described in 2007, and its name is derived from Latin oryzae (of rice). It was originally placed in the novel genus Humihabitans, but further research reclassified the species as a member of the existing genus, Intrasporangium. Because Humihabitans was monospecific, with H. oryzae as the only species, the genus is now defunct. [1] [2]

The same soil survey that discovered I. oryzae also discovered the novel genera/species Oryzihumus leptocrescens and Patulibacter minatonensis . [1]

I. oryzae can grow in the 8-40 °C range and in pH 5.0-11.0. [1]

Virgibacillus is a genus of Gram-positive, rod-shaped (bacillus) bacteria and a member of the phylum Firmicutes. Virgibacillus species can be obligate aerobes, or facultative anaerobes and catalase enzyme positive. Under stressful environmental conditions, the bacteria can produce oval or ellipsoidal endospores in terminal, or sometimes subterminal, swollen sporangia. The genus was recently reclassified from the genus Bacillus in 1998 following an analysis of the species V. pantothenticus. Subsequently, a number of new species have been discovered or reclassified as Virgibacillus species.
