Query: NC_009482:822716 Synechococcus sp. RCC307 chromosome, complete genome

Lineage: Synechococcus; Synechococcus; Synechococcaceae; Chroococcales; Cyanobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Marine Synechococcus and Prochlorococcus are the most abundant photosynthetic organisms on earth and between them account for about half of the world's photosynthesis. RCC307 is an oceanic Synechococcus strain which presents great phylogenetic interest because trees obtained using its 16S RNA gene seem to indicate that it is rooted at the base of the radiation of marine cyanobacteria. This strain was isolated from seawater taken at a depth of 15 meters from the Mediterranean Sea.

Subject: NC_015730:3853065 Roseobacter litoralis Och 149 chromosome, complete genome

Lineage: Roseobacter litoralis; Roseobacter; Rhodobacteraceae; Rhodobacterales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: This type strain for the species was collected from seaweed and isolated by direct plating. Capable of performing aerobic anoxygenic photosynthesis. Photosynthesis genes are located on a plasmid, which is unusual for aerobic anoxygenic phototrophs.
