Query: NC_013517:3453500 Sebaldella termitidis ATCC 33386, complete genome
Lineage: Sebaldella termitidis; Sebaldella; Leptotrichiaceae; Fusobacteriales; Fusobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Isolation: Termite intestine; Temp: Mesophile; Habitat: Gut, Host. Sebaldella termitidis, formerly Bacteroides termitidis was originally isolated from the termite intestine. This organism is able to degrade uric acid and may play a role in providing nitrogen to the termite host.
Subject: NC_010994:4071131 Rhizobium etli CIAT 652, complete genome
Lineage: Rhizobium etli; Rhizobium; Rhizobiaceae; Rhizobiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: It is a nitrogen-fixing symbiotic bacteria that interacts with the root of the common bean plant Phaseolus vulgaris. The molecular biology and evolution of R. etli and its relation to other nitrogen/fixing symbionts has been well studied. The genomic sequence will provide information on the process of symbiosis, on the genetic systems that allow the survival and adaptations of this bacteria to the soil, and on the evolutionary relationship and the symbiosis origin of this organism.
