Query: NC_007777:1296000 Frankia sp. CcI3, complete genome
Lineage: Frankia; Frankia; Frankiaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Isolated from root nodules of Casuarina cunninghamiana in 1983 at Harvard Forest in Petersham, Massachusetts, USA. Nitrogen fixation.
Subject: NC_009077:874164 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.
