Query: NC_010337:2793667 Heliobacterium modesticaldum Ice1, complete genome

Lineage: Heliobacterium modesticaldum; Heliobacterium; Heliobacteriaceae; Clostridiales; Firmicutes; Bacteria

General Information: Heliobacterium modesticaldum strain Ice1, the type strain of this species, was isolated from Icelandic hot spring volcanic soils. It grows optimally above 50 degrees Celsius, grows best photoheterotrophically, but can grow in the dark chemotrophically on pyruvate. Phototrophic thermophile. This organism is an anoxygenic phototroph isolated from hot spring microbial mats and volcanic soil. Cell wall structure, the ability to form endospores, and 16S ribosomal RNA analysis place Heliobacterium modesticaldum in a family of phototrophic bacteria related to the Clostridia. Heliobacterium modesticaldum is able to fix nitrogen and may contribute significantly to the nitrogen availability in microbial mats.

Subject: NC_015633:2327500 Vibrio anguillarum 775 chromosome chromosome I, complete sequence

Lineage: Vibrio anguillarum; Vibrio; Vibrionaceae; Vibrionales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Listonella anguillarum, formerly Vibrio anguillarum is an opportunistic pathogen in economically important marine fish such as eel, flounder and salmon. This disease causes lesions on the skin and around the mouth and gills of the fish often progressing to a systemic infection causing death. If left untreated this disease can cause significant losses in commercial hatcheries.
