Query: NC_008609:1976403 Pelobacter propionicus DSM 2379, complete genome

Lineage: Pelobacter propionicus; Pelobacter; Pelobacteraceae; Desulfuromonadales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Common environmental anaerobe. The genus Pelobacter encompasses a unique group of fermentative microorganisms in the delta-proteobacteria. This species is ubiquitous in both marine and fresh water, and in anaerobic sedmiments. It is able to convert the unsaturated hydrocarbon acetylene to to acetate and ethanol via acetylaldehyde as an intermediate. These microorganisms may survive in some sediments as an Fe(III) or elemental sulfur reducer as well as growing fermentatively as an ethanol-oxidizing acetogen.

Subject: NC_010617:558954 Kocuria rhizophila DC2201, complete genome

Lineage: Kocuria rhizophila; Kocuria; Micrococcaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Kocuria rhizophila was first isolated from the rhizosphere of the narrow-leaved cattail and is commonly found in water and soil. This organism has also been isolated from human skin and is considered to be part of the normal skin flora.
