Query: NC_011729:4073761 Cyanothece sp. PCC 7424 chromosome, complete genome
Lineage: Cyanothece; Cyanothece; ; Chroococcales; Cyanobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This strain was isolated from a rice field in Senegal. The genome shows that these cells have the ability to store the products of both photosynthesis (glycogen) and nitrogen fixation (cyanophycin) as intracellular inclusion bodies. Unlike some other Cyanothece strains, Cyanothece 7424 appears to be an obligate autotroph.
Subject: NC_002939:579087 Geobacter sulfurreducens PCA, complete genome
Lineage: Geobacter sulfurreducens; Geobacter; Geobacteraceae; Desulfuromonadales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This strain was isolated from surface sediments of a hydrocarbon-contaminated ditch in Norman, Oklahoma, USA. Common metal-reducing bacterium. This organism, similar to what is observed in Geobacter metallireducens, is one of the predominant metal-reducing bacteria found in subsurface communities.
