Query: NC_015703:234960 Runella slithyformis DSM 19594 chromosome, complete genome

Lineage: Runella slithyformis; Runella; Cytophagaceae; Cytophagales; Bacteroidetes; Bacteria

General Information: Environment: Fresh water, Host; Isolation: Fresh water lake; USA, Louisiana, Baton; Temp: Psychrophile. This is a species of curved, nonflexible, pink bacteria. The species is of interest because it is able to grow at temperatures as low as 4°C. The species epithet is derived from slithy, a nonsense word from Lewis Carroll's Jabberwocky for a fictional organism that is 'slithy' and the Latin word 'suffix' meaning '-like, in the shape of', yielding the Neo-Latin word 'slithyformis' meaning 'slithy in form'.

Subject: NC_014752:23601 Neisseria lactamica ST-640, complete genome

Lineage: Neisseria lactamica; Neisseria; Neisseriaceae; Neisseriales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Neisseria lactamica ST-640 was isolated from a nasopharyngeal culture. This organism is a nonpathogenic, commensal, bacterium closely related to the pathogenic Neisseria meningitidis. While commonly isolated from nose and throat cultures of children Neisseria lactamica is only rarely isolated from adults.
