Myxococcus vastator Chambers & Sparks & Sydney & Livingstone & Cookson & Whitworth 2020, sp. nov.
No full textMyxococcus vastator sp. nov. Myxococcus vastator (vas.ta’tor L. masc. n. vastator the ravager, after its ability to devastate colonies of prey cells). Vegetative cells are Gram-negative bacilli tapering slightly at the ends, measuring 0.6–0.7 m m 3.0–6.0 m m in electron micrographs. Colonies exhibit swarming motility and appear pale brown on VY-2 agar (w/v 0.5% dried baker’s yeast, 0.1% CaCl 2 2H 2 O, and 1.5% agar). Fruiting bodies are irregular spheroids, orange in color. Aerobic growth was observed at 30 C and at pH 8.0–9.0. Growth was unaffected by the addition of 1% NaCl. Hydrolyzes arginine and urea. Assimilates malate. Cells prey with low efficiency upon E. coli TOP 10, Cl. nebraskensis DSM 7483, and U. maydis DSM 14603. DNA GC content is 69.9 mol%. The draft genome sequence of AM301 T is available from GenBank (accession JAAIYB01). The type strain (AM301 T ¼ NCCB 100768 T ¼ NBBC 114352 T) was isolated from soil collected in the parish of Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwlll lantysiliogogogoch, UK (gridref 53.22 N 4.19 W).Published as part of Chambers, James, Sparks, Natalie, Sydney, Natashia, Livingstone, Paul G, Cookson, Alan R & Whitworth, David E, 2020, Comparative Genomics and Pan-Genomics of the Myxococcaceae, including a Description of Five Novel Species: Myxococcus eversor sp. nov., Myxococcus llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogochensis sp. nov., Myxococcus vastator sp. nov., Pyxidicoccus caerfyrddinensis sp. nov., and Pyxidicoccus trucidator sp. nov., pp. 2289-2302 in Genome Biology and Evolution 12 (12) on page 2300, DOI: 10.1093/gbe/evaa212, http://zenodo.org/record/456162

No full textMyxococcus llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogochensis sp. nov. Myxococcus llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogochensis, (llan.fair.pwll.gwyn.gyll.gog.er.ych.wyrn.dro.bwllll.ant.ysil.iog.ogogoch.en’sis. N.L. masc. adj. llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogo chensis, pertaining to llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch, reflecting its isolation from soil collected in that parish [gridref 53.22 N 4.19 W]). Vegetative cells are Gram-negative bacilli tapering slightly at the ends, measuring 0.4–0.6 m m 4.0–7.0 m m in electron micrographs. Colonies exhibit swarming motility and appear pale brown on VY-2 agar (w/v 0.5% dried baker’s yeast, 0.1% CaCl 2 2H 2 O, and 1.5% agar). Fruiting bodies are irregular spheroids, orange in color. Aerobic growth was observed at 30 and 35 C and at pH 5.0–9.0. Growth was unaffected by the addition of 1–4% NaCl. Hydrolyzes esculin, gelatin, p -nitrophenyl- B -D- galactopyranoside, and urea. Assimilates N -acetyl-glucosamine, adipate, arabinose, glucose, malate, maltose, mannitol, mannose, and phenyl acetate. Cells prey with low efficiency upon E. coli TOP 10, Cl. nebraskensis DSM 7483, and U. maydis. DNA GC content is 68.7 mol%. The draft genome sequence of AM 401 T is available from GenBank (accession VIFM 01). The type strain (AM401 T ¼ NBRC 114351 T ¼ NBBC 100770 T) was isolated from soil collected in the parish of Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgo gerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch, UK (gridref 53.22 N 4.19 W).Published as part of Chambers, James, Sparks, Natalie, Sydney, Natashia, Livingstone, Paul G, Cookson, Alan R & Whitworth, David E, 2020, Comparative Genomics and Pan-Genomics of the Myxococcaceae, including a Description of Five Novel Species: Myxococcus eversor sp. nov., Myxococcus llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogochensis sp. nov., Myxococcus vastator sp. nov., Pyxidicoccus caerfyrddinensis sp. nov., and Pyxidicoccus trucidator sp. nov., pp. 2289-2302 in Genome Biology and Evolution 12 (12) on page 2300, DOI: 10.1093/gbe/evaa212, http://zenodo.org/record/456162
Pyxidicoccus caerfyrddinensis Chambers & Sparks & Sydney & Livingstone & Cookson & Whitworth 2020, sp. nov.
No full textPyxidicoccus caerfyrddinensis sp. nov. Pyxidicoccus caerfyrddinensis (caer.fyrdd.in.en’sis N.L. masc. adj. caerfyrddinensis from Caerfyrddin, reflecting its isolation from soil sampled near Carmarthen [the Anglicized name for Caerfyrddin], Wales [51.86 N 4.31 W]). Vegetative cells are Gram-negative bacilli tapering slightly at the ends, measuring 0.7–0.8 m m 3.0–8.0 m m in electron micrographs. Colonies exhibit swarming motility and appear pale brown on VY-2 agar (w/v 0.5% dried baker’s yeast, 0.1% CaCl 2 2H 2 O, and 1.5% agar). Fruiting bodies are irregular spheroids, orange in color. Aerobic growth was observed at 30–40 C and at pH 6.0–9.0. Growth was unaffected by the addition of 1–3% NaCl. Hydrolyzes arginine, esculin, gelatin, p -nitrophenyl- B - D- galactopyranoside, and urea. Cells prey efficiently on Cl. nebraskensis DSM 7483, and with low efficiency upon E. coli TOP 10 and U. maydis DSM 14603. DNA GC content is 70.2 mol%. The draft genome sequence of CA032 A T is available from GenBank (accession JAAIYA01). The type strain (CA032 A T ¼ NCCB 100776 T ¼ NBBC 114353 T) was isolated from soil collected in Carmarthen, UK (gridref 51.86 N 4.31 W).Published as part of Chambers, James, Sparks, Natalie, Sydney, Natashia, Livingstone, Paul G, Cookson, Alan R & Whitworth, David E, 2020, Comparative Genomics and Pan-Genomics of the Myxococcaceae, including a Description of Five Novel Species: Myxococcus eversor sp. nov., Myxococcus llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogochensis sp. nov., Myxococcus vastator sp. nov., Pyxidicoccus caerfyrddinensis sp. nov., and Pyxidicoccus trucidator sp. nov., pp. 2289-2302 in Genome Biology and Evolution 12 (12) on page 2301, DOI: 10.1093/gbe/evaa212, http://zenodo.org/record/456162
