A polyphasic approach To study the diversity and vertical distribution of sulfur-oxidizing thiomicrospira species in coastal sediments of the german wadden Sea
Recently, four Thiomicrospira strains were isolated from a coastal mud flat of the German Wadden Sea (T. Brinkhoff and G. Muyzer, Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 63:3789-3796, 1997). Here we describe the use of a polyphasic approach to investigate the functional role of these closely related bacteria. Microsensor measurements showed that there was oxygen penetration into the sediment to a depth of ab...
متن کاملInvestigation of Habitat Characteristics and Phenology of Five Range Species in Highlands of Kashan, Iran
Knowledge on habitat characteristics and nature of regional vegetation inrangelands is a prerequisite for any planning and proper range management along withsustainable development of renewable natural resources. Rangelands in southern andwestern highlands of Kashan, Iran are of good vegetation diversity but unfortunately,palatable and desirable species are endangered in recent years. This rese...
متن کاملDiversity of culturable halophilic sulfur-oxidizing bacteria in hypersaline habitats.
Unexpectedly high culturable diversity of moderately and extremely halophilic obligately chemolithoautotrophic sulfur-oxidizing bacteria (SOB) was discovered in the sediments of various hypersaline habitats, including chloride-sulfate lakes in Mongolia, Russia and Ukraine, a sea saltern in Slovenia and a deep-sea salt brine from the Mediterranean. Six different groups of halophilic SOB, includi...
متن کاملThiomicrospira kuenenii sp. nov. and Thiomicrospira frisia sp. nov., two mesophilic obligately chemolithoautotrophic sulfur-oxidizing bacteria isolated from an intertidal mud flat.
Two new members of the genus Thiomicrospira were isolated from an intertidal mud flat sample with thiosulfate as the electron donor and CO2 as carbon source. On the basis of differences in genotypic and phenotypic characteristics, it is proposed that strain JB-A1T (= DSM 12350T) and strain JB-A2T (= DSM 12351T) are members of two new species, Thiomicrospira kuenenii and Thiomicrospira frisia, r...
متن کاملSpecies Diversity and Larval Habitat Characteristics of Mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) in Golestan Province, 2016
Background & Objectives: Mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) are medically considered as one of the most important species of insects in terms of disease transmission to human beings; hence, they can be vectors of remarkable diseases such as malaria, West Nile, dengue fever, yellow fever, and filariasis. This study aimed to determine the species diversity and larval habitat characteristics of mosqu...
