Methylomonassediminis sp. nov., Methylomonas paludicola sp. nov., and Methylomonas roseola sp. nov.: genomic insights into the evolution of methane oxidation and carotenoid biosynthesis

Three reddish-pink, gram-stain-negative, motile, flagellated, short rod-shaped methanotrophs, designated BW4-1 T , SPW-1 T , and PHL2-19 T , were isolated from wetland sediments in South Korea. All three strains possessed intracytoplasmic membranes characteristic of type I methanotrophs and grew with methane or...

Description of Kinneretia algicola sp. nov. isolated from a freshwater green alga, and reclassification of 9 species within the family Sphaerotilaceae.

A Gram-stain-negative, oxidase-positive, catalase-negative, motile, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain M5-1T, was isolated from a freshwater green alga. Strain M5-1T was obligately aerobic and contained ubiquinone-8 (Q-8) as the sole respiratory quinone. The major fatty acids (>10%) were C16:0, C12:0, summed featu...
