Mariniflexile is a genus in the phylum Bacteroidota (Bacteria). The various species have been recovered from sea water, sea urchins, springs, brackish water, and an oyster. [2]
The name Mariniflexile derives from: Latin adjective marinus. Latin participle adjective flexilis -e, pliant, pliable, flexible; Neo-Latin neuter gender noun Mariniflexile, is a marine bacterium. The bacteria are rods, aerobic, move by gliding, gram negative, non-spore forming, and when grown on appropriate medium, the colonies are orange. [3]
The genus contains the following species:
Actinocatenispora is a genus in the phylum Actinomycetota (Bacteria).
Adhaeribacter is a genus in the phylum Bacteroidota (Bacteria).
Agarivorans is a genus in the phylum Pseudomonadota (Bacteria).
Agromyces is a genus in the phylum Actinomycetota (Bacteria).
Algoriphagus is a genus in the phylum Bacteroidota (Bacteria).
Algibacter is a genus in the phylum Bacteroidota (Bacteria).
Alishewanella is a genus in the phylum Pseudomonadota (bacteria).
Alkalibacillus is a genus in the phylum Bacillota (Bacteria).
Nisaea is a genus in the phylum Pseudomonadota (Bacteria), which contains two species, namely N. denitrificans and N. nitritireducens, which were described in 2008.
Tamlana is a genus in the phylum Bacteroidota (Bacteria). Two species have been described so far: T. agarivorans and T. crocina.
Virgibacillus is a genus of Gram-positive, rod-shaped (bacillus) bacteria and a member of the phylum Bacillota. 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.
Altererythrobacter is a bacterial genus from the family Erythrobacteraceae.
Roseivirga is a strictly aerobic genus from the phylum Bacteroidota.
Fulvivirga is a genus from the family of Fulvivirgaceae.
Echinicola is an aerobic and motile bacterial genus from the family of Cyclobacteriaceae.
Marinactinospora is a genus in the phylum Actinomycetota (Bacteria).
Roseivirga seohaensis is a Gram-negative, non-motile, non-spore-forming and rod-shaped bacterium from the genus of Roseivirga which has been isolated from sea water from the Yellow Sea in Korea.
Gramella marina is a Gram-negative, aerobic and heterotrophic bacterium from the genus of Gramella which has been isolated from the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus intermedius.
Winogradskyella echinorum is a bacterium from the genus of Winogradskyella which has been isolated from the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus intermedius.
Olleya aquimaris is a Gram-negative and motile bacterium from the genus of Olleya which has been isolated from seawater from the Baekdo harbour from the Sea of Japan.
