General Information: Isolation: Ditch water; Temp: Mesophile; Temp: 25C; Habitat: Fresh water. Allochromatium vinosum, formerly Chromatium vinosum, is a sulfur-oxidizing anoxygenic phototroph. These organisms use sulfur compounds as electron donors and often contain internal sulfur deposits.
Subject: NC_009076:3045139 Burkholderia pseudomallei 1106a chromosome I, complete sequence
Lineage: Burkholderia pseudomallei; Burkholderia; Burkholderiaceae; Burkholderiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Isolated from liver abscess from a 23-year old female patient in Thailand in 1993. This species is an opportunistic pathogen and can cause pneumonia, bacteremia, and melioidosis. It is normally found in terrestrial environments and has been recovered from rice paddies and moist tropical soil. It is endemic in Asia and Australia, but can be found in other parts of the world. The organism can exist intracellularly and can spread through the bloodstream (bacteremia).
