Lineage: Gordonia polyisoprenivorans; Gordonia; Gordoniaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Gordonia polyisoprenivorans strain VH2 was isolated from soil of a rubber tree plantation in Vietnam due to its effective degradation of poly(cis-1,4-isoprene) rubber.
Subject: NC_012522:7837071 Rhodococcus opacus B4, complete genome
Lineage: Rhodococcus opacus; Rhodococcus; Nocardiaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Strain B4 was isolated from a soil sample taken from the roadside in Hiroshima, Japan. It is a benzene-tolerant, Gram-postitive, non-motile, strictly aerobic rod, able to use many organic compound as its sole source of carbon and energy. Rhodococcus opacus is an aerobic, Gram-positive bacterium that can accumulate triacylglycerols (TAGs).
