Abstract excerpt
Two red pigment-producing bacterial strains with a metallic green sheen were isolated from a sediment sample of getbol, the Korean tidal flat. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rDNA sequences showed that these isolates represent a phyletic lineage within the gamma-Proteobacteria that is distantly related to the genus Hahella. No bacterial species with validly published names showed > or = 92% 16S rRNA similarity...
