Lineage: Gordonia polyisoprenivorans; Gordonia; Gordoniaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Gordonia polyisoprenivorans strain VH2 was isolated from soil of a rubber tree plantation in Vietnam due to its effective degradation of poly(cis-1,4-isoprene) rubber.
Subject: NC_012791:821371 Variovorax paradoxus S110 chromosome 1, complete genome
Lineage: Variovorax paradoxus; Variovorax; Comamonadaceae; Burkholderiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Temp: Mesophile; Habitat: Soil. Variovorax paradoxus S110 is able to grow autotrophically using hydrogen gas and carbon dioxide for energy and carbon. Variovorax paradoxus is a nutritionally diverse organism which is commonly isolated from soil. Strains of this organism are able to degrade a number of compounds such as explosives and pesticides. Variovorax paradoxus is also a plant-growth promoting organism, increasing the resistance of the plant to disease and heavy metals.
