Query: NC_014910:465980 Alicycliphilus denitrificans BC chromosome, complete genome
Lineage: Alicycliphilus denitrificans; Alicycliphilus; Comamonadaceae; Burkholderiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Temp: Mesophile. Alicycliphilus denitrificans is a Gram-negative bacterium and is able to degrade cyclohexanol and other alicyclic compounds under denitrifying conditions. Isolated from a mixture of wastewater treatment plant material and benzene-polluted soil
Subject: NC_014355:1257105 Candidatus Nitrospira defluvii, complete genome
Lineage: Nitrospira defluvii; Nitrospira; Nitrospiraceae; Nitrospirales; Nitrospirae; Bacteria
General Information: This nitrite-oxidizing bacterium was found through enrichment from activated sludge from a municipal wastewater treatment plant. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the enriched bacteria represented a novel Nitrospira species closely related to uncultured Nitrospira-like bacteria previously found in wastewater treatment plants and nitrifying bioreactors.
