Query: NC_014006:850763 Sphingobium japonicum UT26S chromosome 1, complete genome

Lineage: Sphingobium japonicum; Sphingobium; Sphingomonadaceae; Sphingomonadales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Sphingobium japonicum (strain NBRC 101211 / UT26S) is a yellow-pigmented, non-motile, aerobic, hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH)-degrading Gram-negative bacterium isolated from a dumpsite in the vicinity of an industry that has been producing lindane. HCH has been used extensively as insect control agents in the health and agriculture fields. Sphingobium japonicum, formerly Sphingomonas paucimobilis, is able to degrade hexachlorocyclohexane which has been used extensively as insect control agents in the health and agriculture fields.

Subject: NC_013722:2810721 Xanthomonas albilineans, complete genome

Lineage: Xanthomonas albilineans; Xanthomonas; Xanthomonadaceae; Xanthomonadales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: This bacterium causes the economically important leaf scald disease in sugar cane. Xanthomonas albilineans produces a potent toxin, albicidin, which is responsible for the characteristic whitening of sugar cane leaves and stunted plant growth.
