Reclassification of Trichlorobacter thiogenes as Geobacter thiogenes comb. nov.
Reclassification of the species Trichlorobacter thiogenes as Geobacter thiogenes comb. nov. is proposed on the basis of physiological traits and phylogenetic position. Characteristics additional to those provided in the original description revealed that the type strain (strain K1(T)=ATCC BAA-34(T)=JCM 14045(T)) has the ability to use Fe(III) as an electron acceptor for acetate oxidation and ha...
متن کاملPotential role of a novel psychrotolerant member of the family Geobacteraceae, Geopsychrobacter electrodiphilus gen. nov., sp. nov., in electricity production by a marine sediment fuel cell.
Previous studies have shown that members of the family Geobacteraceae that attach to the anodes of sediment fuel cells are directly involved in harvesting electricity by oxidizing organic compounds to carbon dioxide and transferring the electrons to the anode. In order to learn more about this process, microorganisms from the anode surface of a marine sediment fuel cell were enriched and isolat...
متن کاملBacterial diversity based on 16S rRNA and gyrB genes at Yinshan mine, China.
The diversity of bacterial communities at three sites impacted by acid mine drainage (AMD) from the Yinshan Mine in China was studied using comparative sequence analysis of two molecular markers, the 16S rRNA and gyrB genes. The phylogenetic analyses retrieved sequences from six classes of bacteria, Nitrospira, Alphaproteobacteria, Gammaproteobacteria, Deltaproteobacteria, Acidobacteria, and Ac...
متن کاملIn situ expression of nifD in Geobacteraceae in subsurface sediments.
In order to determine whether the metabolic state of Geobacteraceae involved in bioremediation of subsurface sediments might be inferred from levels of mRNA for key genes, in situ expression of nifD, a highly conserved gene involved in nitrogen fixation, was investigated. When Geobacter sulfurreducens was grown without a source of fixed nitrogen in chemostats with acetate provided as the limiti...
متن کاملA Comparison of rpoB and 16S rRNA as Markers in Pyrosequencing Studies of Bacterial Diversity
BACKGROUND The 16S rRNA gene is the gold standard in molecular surveys of bacterial and archaeal diversity, but it has the disadvantages that it is often multiple-copy, has little resolution below the species level and cannot be readily interpreted in an evolutionary framework. We compared the 16S rRNA marker with the single-copy, protein-coding rpoB marker by amplifying and sequencing both fro...
