Query: NC_015730:3853065 Roseobacter litoralis Och 149 chromosome, complete genome
Lineage: Roseobacter litoralis; Roseobacter; Rhodobacteraceae; Rhodobacterales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This type strain for the species was collected from seaweed and isolated by direct plating. Capable of performing aerobic anoxygenic photosynthesis. Photosynthesis genes are located on a plasmid, which is unusual for aerobic anoxygenic phototrophs.
Subject: NC_007761:3962474 Rhizobium etli CFN 42, complete genome
Lineage: Rhizobium etli; Rhizobium; Rhizobiaceae; Rhizobiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: It is a nitrogen-fixing symbiotic bacteria that interacts with the root of the common bean plant Phaseolus vulgaris. P. etli and its relation to other nitrogen/fixing symbionts has been well studied. The genomic sequence will provide information on the process of symbiosis, on the genetic systems that allow the survival and adaptations of this bacteria to the soil, and on the evolutionary relationship and the symbiosis origin of this organism.
