Query: NC_008601:1560482 Francisella tularensis subsp. novicida U112, complete genome

Lineage: Francisella tularensis; Francisella; Francisellaceae; Thiotrichales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Avirulent species. Francisella novicida is closely related to Francisella tularensis, the causative agent for tularemia but is nonvirulent. This organism, however may cause disease in immunocompromised individuals. They do however cause a disease in mice that is very similar to tularemia. This strain was isolated from water in Utah, USA in 1950. Francisella tularensis is a non-motile, aerobic, rod-shaped Gram-negative bacterium and is the causative agent of tularemia.

Subject: NC_015161:162000 Deinococcus proteolyticus MRP chromosome, complete genome

Lineage: Deinococcus proteolyticus; Deinococcus; Deinococcaceae; Deinococcales; Deinococcus-Thermus; Bacteria

General Information: Environment: Soil; Isolation: Faeces of Lama glama; Temp: Mesophile. These are gram-positive bacteria that form pink to red colored colonies. Many of the strains are resistant to radiation. Cells are spherical, nonmotile.
