Lineage: Hahella chejuensis; Hahella; Hahellaceae; Oceanospirillales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This organism was isolated from marine sediment from Cheju Island, Republic of Korea. Hahella chejuensis is a slight halophile with an optimum salinity of 2%. This organism produces a large amount of exopolysaccharide, which has potential as an emulsification agent.
Subject: NC_020210:2969862 Geobacillus sp. GHH01, complete genome
Lineage: Geobacillus; Geobacillus; Bacillaceae; Bacillales; Firmicutes; Bacteria
General Information: Recent rDNA analysis and DNA-DNA hybridization studies using spore-forming thermophilic subsurface isolates from formation waters of oilfields in Russia, Kazakhstan and China provided enough evidence to define the phylogenetically distinct, physiologically and morphologically consistent taxon Geobacillus. Geobacillus species are chemo-organotrophic, obligately thermophilic, neutrophilic, motile, spore-forming, aerobic or facultatively anaerobic.
