Query: NC_015943:1 Haloarcula hispanica ATCC 33960 chromosome chromosome II, complete
Lineage: Haloarcula hispanica; Haloarcula; Halobacteriaceae; Halobacteriales; Euryarchaeota; Archaea
General Information: Haloarcula hispanica is a halophilic archaeon. Extremely halophilic archaeon. Has an unusually low restriction barrier. First isolated from a solar saltern in Spain. Ability to accumulate polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) when carbon sources are in excess.
Subject: NC_012489:1874415 Gemmatimonas aurantiaca T-27, complete genome
Lineage: Gemmatimonas aurantiaca; Gemmatimonas; Gemmatimonadaceae; Gemmatimonadales; Gemmatimonadetes; Bacteria
General Information: Gram-negative, rod-shaped aerobe. Polyphosphate accumulating bacterium. This species was isolated from an anaerobic-aerobic sequential batch reactor operated under enhanced biological phosphorus removal conditions for wastewater treatment. The isolation strategy used targeted slowly growing polyphosphate-accumulating bacteria by combining low-speed centrifugations and prolonged incubation on a low-nutrient medium. This is the first isolated species in the Gemmatimonadetes phylum.
