Reclassification of the polyphyletic genus Prosthecomicrobium to form two novel genera, Vasilyevaea gen. nov. and Bauldia gen. nov. with four new combinations: Vasilyevaea enhydra comb. nov., Vasilyevaea mishustinii comb. nov., Bauldia consociata comb. nov. and Bauldia litoralis comb. nov.
Species of the genus Prosthecomicrobium are noted for their numerous cellular appendages or prosthecae that extend from the cells. This investigation confirms that the genus is polyphyletic based on an extensive analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences of several named species of the genus. The analyses indicate that some Prosthecomicrobium species are more closely related to non-prosthecate gen...
متن کاملSusceptibility of inbred mouse strains to infection with Serpula (Treponema) hyodysenteriae.
Several inbred strains of mice were inoculated with Serpula (Treponema) hyodysenteriae B204 to determine susceptibility to infection. Challenge doses of 10(7) or 10(8) spirochetes induced cecal lesions in C3H/HeJ mice and other C3H strains of mice. However, more than a 100-fold difference existed between the dose required to induce lesions in 50% of the infected C3H/HeJ mice (8.3 x 10(7)) and t...
متن کاملTreponema innocens lipids and further description of an unusual galactolipid of Treponema hyodysenteriae.
The lipids of Treponema innocens, type strain B256, formerly considered a nonpathogenic isolate of T. hyodysenteriae, have been analyzed and compared with the lipids of T. hyodysenteriae. The lipids of T. innocens comprised 16% of the cell dry weight. Polar lipids amounted to about two-thirds of the total lipids and consisted of 61.9% phospholipids and 38.1% glycolipid. Neutral lipids consisted...
متن کاملTransfer of Rhodopseudomonas acidophila to the new genus Rhodoblastus as Rhodoblastus acidophilus gen. nov., comb. nov.
Rhodopseudomonas acidophila has unique properties among the phototrophic alpha-Proteobacteria and is quite distinct from the type species of Rhodopseudomonas, Rhodopseudomonas palustris. Therefore, the transfer of Rhodopseudomonas acidophila to Rhodoblastus acidophilus gen. nov., comb. nov., is proposed. This proposal is in accordance with other taxonomic reclassifications proposed previously a...
متن کاملReclassification of [Pasteurella] trehalosi as Bibersteinia trehalosi gen. nov., comb. nov.
[Pasteurella] trehalosi is an important pathogen of sheep, being primarily associated with serious systemic infections in lambs but also having an association with pneumonia. The aim of the present investigation was to characterize a broad collection of strains tentatively identified as [P.] trehalosi in order to reclassify and rename this taxon to support improvements in our understanding of t...
