Query: NC_015580:1302000 Novosphingobium sp. PP1Y, complete genome
Lineage: Novosphingobium; Novosphingobium; Sphingomonadaceae; Sphingomonadales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Novosphingobium sp. PP1Y is a marine bacteria specifically adapted to use fuels as energy source. It is able to grow on a wide range of mono-, poly- and heterocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Isolated from a surface seawater sample collected from a closed bay in the harbour of Pozzuoli (Naples, Italy).
Subject: NC_008254:3246306 Mesorhizobium sp. BNC1, complete genome
Lineage: Chelativorans; Chelativorans; Phyllobacteriaceae; Rhizobiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This organism was isolated from a mixed-culture enriched from sewage using the chelating agent EDTA (binds divalent cations - ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid) as the sole carbon and nitrogen source. EDTA is often found at toxic waste sites where it is bound to metals and radionuclides, which affects bioremediation efforts. This bacterium is capable of EDTA degradation by itself.
