Query: NC_016930:943000 Rickettsia philipii str. 364D chromosome, complete genome

Lineage: Rickettsia philipii; Rickettsia; Rickettsiaceae; Rickettsiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Rickettsiae are obligate intracellular Gram-negative bacteria mostly found in arthropods, some of which cause mild to severe diseases in humans. Spotted fever group rickettsiae (SFGR) cause disease in humans. R .philippi strain 364D, an SFGR, was isolated in 1966 from Dermacentor occidentalis ticks collected in Ventura county, California, and since then 364D has been detected in up to 11% of D. occidentalis from 8 California counties. It has now been recognized as causing eschar-associated illness.

Subject: NC_015458:3077804 Pusillimonas sp. T7-7 chromosome, complete genome

Lineage: Pusillimonas; Pusillimonas; Alcaligenaceae; Burkholderiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Isolated from the benthal mud of a petroleum-contaminated site in Bohai Sea, China. Gram-negative bacterium isolated from the seabed mud of Bohai Sea, in a petroleum-contaminated region. It is cold tolerant (grows between 4 to 37°C, optimum 30°C), salt tolerant (5% NaCl), and able to utilize diesel oils as the sole carbon source for growth.
