Lineage: Frankia; Frankia; Frankiaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Environment: Host, Plant symbiont, Soil; Temp: Mesophile. Frankia sp. EuI1c was isolated from the Autumn olive, Elaeagnus umbellata. Frankia sp. (strain EuI1c) is an aerobic Gram-positive bacterium isolated from four continents (North America, South America, Africa, and Asia) and different habitats, including dry soils with high salinity levels, steppe-like plains at 900 m, and mountain forests at 3,000 m.
Subject: NC_000853:1480478 Thermotoga maritima MSB8, complete genome
Lineage: Thermotoga maritima; Thermotoga; Thermotogaceae; Thermotogales; Thermotogae; Bacteria
General Information: Rod-shaped thermophilic marine bacterium that metabolizes many simple and complex carbohydrates including glucose, sucrose, starch, cellulose, and xylan. This hyperthermophilic organism was originally isolated from a geothermal marine area near Vulcano, Italy. Thermotoga maritima is a hyperthermophile with an optimum growth temperature of 80 degrees C. This organism, a member of the Thermotogales, has the characteristic sheath-like envelope which extends beyond the cell wall. These organisms are heterotrophs are able to use a wide range of carbohydrates.
