Lineage: Psychroflexus torquis; Psychroflexus; Flavobacteriaceae; Flavobacteriales; Bacteroidetes; Bacteria
General Information: Psychroflexus torquis is psychophilic and is an algal epiphyte. The microbe is a chemoheterotroph and requires seawater to grow and is motile by a gliding motility mechanism. Colonies produce an orange carotenoid-like pigment.
Subject: NC_008687:133728 Paracoccus denitrificans PD1222 chromosome 2, complete sequence
Lineage: Paracoccus denitrificans; Paracoccus; Rhodobacteraceae; Rhodobacterales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This organism is commonly found in soil and sewage sludge. This organism is able to survive in both aerobic and anaerobic environments due to its ability to use both oxygen and nitrogenous oxides making it a popular model organism for the study of electron transfer and and energy conservation.
