Query: NC_017955:693303 Modestobacter marinus, complete genome
Lineage: Modestobacter marinus; Modestobacter; Geodermatophilaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Isolated from a white marble surface in Carrara, Tuscany, Italy.
Subject: NC_009077:2308634 Mycobacterium sp. JLS, complete genome
Lineage: Mycobacterium; Mycobacterium; Mycobacteriaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This organism was isolated from creosote-contaminated soil from the Champion International Superfund site in Libby, Montana, USA. This microbe, along with some others collected at this site, is able to rapidly mineralize 14C-labeled pyrene. Phylogenetic studies based on the rRNA 16S gene confirmed that strains collected at this site were distinct from one another and also from other known Mycobacterium isolates.
