Query: NC_014219:83888 Bacillus selenitireducens MLS10 chromosome, complete genome

Lineage: Bacillus selenitireducens; Bacillus; Bacillaceae; Bacillales; Firmicutes; Bacteria

General Information: Isolation: Anoxic muds of Mono Lake California; Country: USA; Temp: Mesophile; Habitat: Fresh water. Bacillus selenitireducens MLS-10 was isolated from alkaline, hypersaline, arsenic-rich mud from Mono Lake, California. This organism can reduce arsenate, selenate, and selenite, making it a potential bioremediation agent. Bacillus selenitireducens produces intracellular and extracellular granules of elemental selenium when grown on selenite. The respiratory arsenate reductase has been purified, and is able to function at high pH and alkalinity.

Subject: NC_015844:3524175 Zobellia galactanivorans, complete genome

Lineage: Zobellia galactanivorans; Zobellia; Flavobacteriaceae; Flavobacteriales; Bacteroidetes; Bacteria

General Information: Zobellia galactanivorans is a marine bacterium that participates in the carbon cycle as a decomposer of dead algae. This organism produces several potentially commercially important polysaccharidases which are able to degrade agar and carageenan.
