Identification of “ Candidatus Thioturbo danicus,” a Microaerophilic Bacterium That Builds Conspicuous Veils on Sulfidic Sediments

Citation
Muyzer et al. (2005). Applied and Environmental Microbiology 71 (12)
Names
Ca. Thioturbo danicus
Abstract
ABSTRACT Molecular analysis of bacteria enriched under in situ-like conditions and mechanically isolated by micromanipulation showed that a hitherto-uncultivated microaerophilic bacterium thriving in oxygen-sulfide counter-gradients (R. Thar and M. Kühl, Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 68:6310-6320, 2000) is affiliated with the ε-subdivision of the Proteobacteria . The affiliation was confirmed by the use of whole-cell hybridization with newly designed s

‘Candidatus Phytoplasma graminis' and ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma caricae’, two novel phytoplasmas associated with diseases of sugarcane, weeds and papaya in Cuba

Ca. Phytoplasma caricae Ca. Phytoplasma graminis
Abstract
During 2003, surveys of sugarcane yellow leaf disease and papaya bunchy top-like disease were carried out on plantations in Havana province, Cuba, to determine the roles of weeds and Auchenorrhyncha insects in the epidemiology of these diseases. More than 250 plant and insect samples were collected and indexed by using a nested PCR for phytoplasma 16S rDNA with the generic primer pairs P1/P7 and R16F2n/R16R2. The PCR products were further characterized by restriction fragment length polymorphism

Evaluation of Antibiotic Treatment against “ Candidatus Helicobacter suis” in a Mouse Model

Citation
Hellemans et al. (2005). Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy 49 (11)
Names
Ca. Helicobacter suis
Abstract
ABSTRACT “ Helicobacter heilmannii ” (proposed name) type 1 colonizes the human stomach. It has been shown to be identical to“ Candidatus Helicobacter suis,” a Helicobacter species colonizing the stomachs of >60% of slaughter pigs. This bacterium has not been isolated in vitro until now. Antibiotic susceptibility testing of “ Candidatus Helicobacter suis” has not been carried

Diversity of “ Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus,” Based on the omp Gene Sequence

Citation
Bastianel et al. (2005). Applied and Environmental Microbiology 71 (11)
Names
Ca. Liberibacter asiaticus
Abstract
ABSTRACT Huanglongbing (yellow dragon disease) is a destructive disease of citrus. The etiological agent is a noncultured, phloem-restricted alpha-proteobacterium, “ Candidatus Liberibacter africanus” in Africa and “ Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus” in Asia. In this study, we used an omp -based PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) approach to analyze the genetic variability of “

Thermincola carboxydiphila gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel anaerobic, carboxydotrophic, hydrogenogenic bacterium from a hot spring of the Lake Baikal area

Names
Thermincola
Abstract
A novel anaerobic, thermophilic, alkalitolerant bacterium, strain 2204T, was isolated from a hot spring of the Baikal Lake region. The cells of strain 2204Twere straight rods of variable length, Gram-positive with an S-layer, motile with one to two lateral flagella, and often formed aggregates of 3–15 cells. The isolate was shown to be an obligate anaerobe oxidizing CO and producing equimolar quantities of H2and CO2according to the equation CO+H2O→CO2+H2. No organic substrates were used as energ
