Query: NC_014664:1669642 Rhodomicrobium vannielii ATCC 17100 chromosome, complete genome
Lineage: Rhodomicrobium vannielii; Rhodomicrobium; Hyphomicrobiaceae; Rhizobiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Temp: Mesophile; Rhodomicrobium vannielii is a budding prosthecate bacterium. Rhodomicrobium vannielii is a purple non-sulfur bacterium isolated in 1949 that is photosynthetic under anaerobic conditions. It is able to grow with ferrous iron as electron donor, although this does not support growth over a long time.
Subject: NC_014551:157418 Bacillus amyloliquefaciens DSM 7, complete genome
Lineage: Bacillus amyloliquefaciens; Bacillus; Bacillaceae; Bacillales; Firmicutes; Bacteria
General Information: Originally isolated from infested soil in Germany. Bacillus amyloliquefaciens is a member of a group of free-living soil bacteria known to promote plant growth and suppress plant pathogens. Bacillus amyloliquefaciens is able to degrade myo-inositol hexakisphosphate (phytate), making phosphorus more available to plants. This organism also produces antifungal and antibacterial substances, such as bacillomycin D, surfactin, and bacillaene, which protect the plant from pathogenic organisms. In addition, proteases and amylases produced by Bacillus amyloliquefaciens are used in industrial applications.
