Query: NC_010676:2869936 Burkholderia phytofirmans PsJN chromosome 2, complete sequence Lineage: Burkholderia phytofirmans; Burkholderia; Burkholderiaceae; Burkholderiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria General Information: Burkholderia phytofirmans, isolated from surface-sterilized onion roots, is a plant growth-promoting bacterium. Plants inoculated with this organism have larger root systems and are more resistant to pathogens. Cells are gram-negative, non-sporulating rods that grows in the presence of various sugars. The strain does not produce nitrate or nitrite.

General Information: Chemoheterotrophic obligate extreme halophilic archeon. This microbe (strain ATCC 700922) is an obligately halophilic archeon that has adapted to growth under conditions of extremely high salinity. Motility is via tufts of polar flagella and intracellular gas vesicles are used for buoyancy. This organism grow aerobically and its ease of culturing combined with the availability of established methods of genetic manipulation in the laboratory make it an ideal model organism for study of the archaea.
