Query: NC_013119:511500 Brucella microti CCM 4915 chromosome 1, complete sequence
Lineage: Brucella microti; Brucella; Brucellaceae; Rhizobiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Brucella microti was isolated in 2000 from systemically infected voles in South Moravia, Czech Republic and has been more recently isolated from foxes and apparently free-living in soil in Czech soil. The organism is characterized by rapid growth on standard media and high metabolic activity, which is atypical for Brucella.
Subject: NC_015733:864959 Pseudomonas putida S16 chromosome, complete genome
Lineage: Pseudomonas putida; Pseudomonas; Pseudomonadaceae; Pseudomonadales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Bacteria belonging to the Pseudomonas group are common inhabitants of soil and water and can also be found on the surfaces of plants and animals. Pseudomonas bacteria are found in nature in a biofilm or in planktonic form. Pseudomonas bacteria are renowned for their metabolic versatility as they can grow under a variety of growth conditions and do not need any organic growth factors. As they are metabolically versatile, and well characterized, it makes them great candidates for biocatalysis, bioremediation and other agricultural applications. Certain strains have been used in the production of bioplastics.
