Query: NC_014960:3009500 Anaerolinea thermophila UNI-1, complete genome
Lineage: Anaerolinea thermophila; Anaerolinea; Anaerolineaceae; Anaerolineales; Chloroflexi; Bacteria
General Information: A thermophilic, Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, multicellular filamentous micro-organism isolated from thermophilic granular sludge in an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor treating fried soybean-curd manufacturing waste water.
Subject: NC_008781:3365468 Polaromonas naphthalenivorans CJ2, complete genome
Lineage: Polaromonas naphthalenivorans; Polaromonas; Comamonadaceae; Burkholderiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Naphthalene-degrading bacterium. Polaromonas naphthalenivorans was isolated from naphthalene-contaminated, freshwater sediment. This organism is capable of aerobic degradation of naphthalene at temperatures of less than 20 degrees C. Naphthalene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH). PAHs can be toxic and/or carcinogenic, therefore PAH contamination is of considerable concern.
