Query: NC_012034:1783912 Anaerocellum thermophilum DSM 6725, complete genome
Lineage: Caldicellulosiruptor bescii; Caldicellulosiruptor; Thermoanaerobacterales Family III; Thermoanaerobacterales; Firmicutes; Bacteria
General Information: Anaerocellum thermophilum was isolated from a hot spring on the Kamchatka peninsula in Russia. This organism produces thermostable enzymes which can degrade cellulose and starches and may be of use in industry.
Subject: NC_013856:595496 Azospirillum sp. B510 plasmid pAB510b, complete sequence
Lineage: Azospirillum; Azospirillum; Rhodospirillaceae; Rhodospirillales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Azospirillum are commonly isolated from the rhizosphere and root surfaces from a wide variety of plants. Azospirillum species are considered to be plant growth promoting organisms, producing plant hormones for cell elongation (auxins), cell division and growth (cytokinins) and stem elongation (gibberellins). These compounds contribute to an enhanced uptake of nutrients and water and thus increased plant growth. Azospirillum sp. B510 was isolated from rice in Japan.
