Lineage: Tetragenococcus halophilus; Tetragenococcus; Enterococcaceae; Lactobacillales; Firmicutes; Bacteria
General Information: Tetragenococcus halophilus is a gram-positive lactic acid bacterium which flourishes in extreme salt environments. It plays a role in halophilic fermentation processes such as the production of soy sauce and fish sauce.
Subject: NC_004463:1520303 Bradyrhizobium japonicum USDA 110, complete genome
Lineage: Bradyrhizobium diazoefficiens; Bradyrhizobium; Bradyrhizobiaceae; Rhizobiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This strain was isolated from Glycine hispida in 1959 in Florida, USA, and has been widely studied because of its superior symbiotic nitrogen fixation with soybeans as compared to other strains. This strain contains a 681 Kb symbiosis island that contains genes for nitrogen fixation and root nodule formation. The chromosome also contains genes resembling those of type III and IV secretion systems.
