Taxonomy

Description

Members of Candidatus Pseudoplanktomarina genus are aerobic heterotrophic bacteria with an average genomes size 2.41 Mbp (raw: 2.17 Mbp) and a GC content of 0.43. Currently, there are three distinct species exhibiting different distribution patterns across the global ocean. All species in this group contain a proteorhodopsin gene, however, lack genes for sox and CODH clusters. Entner-Doudoroff and pentose phosphate pathways are two major pathways for glycolysis catabolism in Candidatus Pseudoplanktomarina. Additionally, genes involved in DMSP and DHPS degradation are also present in this genus. The type species of the genus Pseudoplanktomarina is Pseudoplanktomarina karensis.
