Roseigium denhamense gen. nov., sp. nov. and Roseibium hemelinense sp. nov., aerobic bacteriochlorophyll-containing bacteria isolated from the east and west coasts of Australia.

Abstract excerpt

Phenotypic and phylogenetic studies were performed with 10 strains of bacteriochlorophyll-containing bacteria isolated from a variety of marine environments (surface of Rhodophyta, sand and algal sand mat) on the east and west coasts of Australia. The strains were aerobic, chemoheterotrophic, Gram-negative, motile rods with peritrichous flagella. Bacteriochlorophyll a was synthesized under aerobic conditions....
