Title: Pseudomonas furukawaii sp. nov., a polychlorinated biphenyl-degrading bacterium isolated from biphenyl-contaminated soil in Japan. Author: Kimura N, Watanabe T, Suenaga H, Fujihara H, Futagami T, Goto M, Hanada S, Hirose J. Journal: Int J Syst Evol Microbiol; 2018 May; 68(5):1429-1435. PubMed ID: 29595413. Abstract: Strain KF707T was isolated from a biphenyl-contaminated site in Kitakyushu, Japan. Analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences, retrieved from the whole-genome sequence, revealed that the isolate was closely related to members of the genus Pseudomonas, sharing the highest sequence similarities with Pseudomonas balearica strain SP1402T (DSM 6083) (97.8 %). The DNA G+C chromosome and plasmid content of strain KF707T were 65.5 and 60.5 mol%. The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0 and C16 : 1ω7c/C16 : 1ω6c. Polyphasic analysis indicated that strain KF707T represents a novel species of the genus Pseudomonas, for which the name Pseudomonas furukawaii sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KF707T (=DSM 10086T=NBRC 110670T).[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
