Query: NC_003047:2798367 Sinorhizobium meliloti 1021, complete genome

Lineage: Sinorhizobium meliloti; Sinorhizobium; Rhizobiaceae; Rhizobiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Streptomycin resistant derivative of strain 2011. Plant symbiotic bacterium. This organism, much like other Rhizobia, forms a symbiotic relationship with a leguminous plant, in this case the alfalfa plant (Medicago sativa). Expression of nodulation genes results in production of a nodulation signal which the plant cell recognizes inducing root nodule formation. The plant cell provides carbon compounds for the bacterium to grow on.

Subject: NC_013062:421779 Flavobacteriaceae bacterium 3519-10, complete genome

Lineage: Flavobacteriaceae bacterium; Flavobacteriaceae; unclassified Flavobacteriaceae; Flavobacteriales; Bacteroidetes; Bacteria

General Information: This bacterium was cultured from ancient Antarctic ice (>420,000 yrs). It produces a protein that appears critical to survival in ice.
