Query: NC_010529:296500 Cupriavidus taiwanensis plasmid pRALTA, complete sequence

Lineage: Cupriavidus taiwanensis; Cupriavidus; Burkholderiaceae; Burkholderiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Cupriavidus taiwanensis LMG19424 was isolated from the root nodule of the legume Mimosa pudica in Taiwan. Cupriavidus taiwanensis, also called Ralstonia taiwanensis or Wautersia taiwanensis is similar to bacteria from the Agrobacterium and Rhizobium genera that form nitrogen-fixing nodules in the roots of various leguminous plants. However, Cupriavidus taiwanensis is only distantly related to these other root nodule-forming bacteria. In Cupriavidus taiwanensis the nodule formation and nitrogen fixation genes are contained a 0.5Mb plasmid.

Subject: NC_010524:2117347 Leptothrix cholodnii SP-6, complete genome

Lineage: Leptothrix cholodnii; Leptothrix; Comamonadaceae; Burkholderiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Leptothrix cholodnii SP-6 was isolated from water and flocculent from an artificial iron seep in Ithaca, NY, USA. Leptothrix cholodnii, like other Leptothrix species is an iron- and manganese-oxidizing, sheathed bacterium common in organic rich aquatic environments. Iron oxides and manganese oxides often coat the sheathes of these organisms.
