Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek. 2024 Mar 7;117(1):49. doi: 10.1007/s10482-024-01948-y.ABSTRACTA marine bacterial strain, named NTOU-MSR1T, was isolated from marine sediment of northern coast of Taiwan. This bacterium was Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, and motile, with a single flagellum. Its rod-shaped cells measured approximately 0.5-0.6 µm in width and 1.8-2.0 μm in length. NTOU-MSR1T grew at temperatures ranging from 10 to 45 °C, optimally at 30 °C. The pH range for growth was 7.0-10.0, with optimal growth at pH 7.0-8.0. It tolerated NaCl concentrations up to 12%.

Ciceribacter sichuanensis sp. nov., a plant growth promoting rhizobacterium isolated from root nodules of soybean in Sichuan, China
Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek. 2024 Mar 1;117(1):46. doi: 10.1007/s10482-024-01941-5.ABSTRACTThe fast-growing rhizobia-like strains S101T and S153, isolated from root nodules of soybean (Glycine max) in Sichuan, People's Republic of China, underwent characterization using a polyphasic taxonomy approach. The strains exhibited growth at 20-40 °C (optimum, 28 °C), pH 4.0-10.0 (optimum, pH 7.0) and up to 2.0% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0.01%) on Yeast Mannitol Agar plates. The 16S rRNA gene of strain S101T showed 98.4% sequence similarity to the closest type strain, Ciceribacter daejeonense L61T. Major cellular fatty acids in strain S10...

Alcohol dehydrogenase system acts as the sole pathway for methanol oxidation in Desulfofundulus kuznetsovii strain TPOSR
In this study, we describe a newly isolated strain of D. kuznetsovii, strain TPOSR, and compare its metabolism to the type strain D. kuznetsovii 17T. Both strains grow on a large variety of alcohols, such as methanol, ethanol and propane-diols, coupled to the reduction of sulphate. Strain 17T metabolizes methanol via two routes, one involving a cobalt-dependent methyl transferase and the other using a cobalt-independent alcohol dehydrogenase. However, strain TPOSR, which shares 97% average nucleotide identity with D. kuznetsovii strain 17T, lacks several genes from the methyl transferase operon found in strain 17T. The gen...
