https://www.selleckchem.com/products/Tubacin.html A facultatively anaerobic bacterium, strain S0837T, was isolated from the marine sediment of Jingzi Wharf, Weihai, China. Cells of the novel strain were Gram-stain-negative, non-flagellated, non-gliding, non-pigmented and rod-shaped. Cells were around 0.3-0.5×1.0-1.4 µm in size and often appeared singly. Optimum growth occurred at 33 °C, with 2 % (w/v) NaCl and at pH 7.0-7.5. On the basis of the results of 16S rRNA gene sequences, stain S0837T had the closest relative with Sulfitobacter delicatus KCTC 32183T (98.0 %). Genome sequencing revealed a genome size of 3 785 026 bp, a G+C content of 59.8 mol% and several genes related with sulphur oxidation. The strain shared 98.0 % 16S rRNA sequence similarities with closely related type species and shared ANI value below 95-96 %, dDDH value of showed relatedness of 27.4, 25.2 and 25.2 % respectively with the closely related type species. Strain S0837T had ubiquinone-10 as the sole respiratory quinone, and possessed summed feature 8 (C18 1 ω7c/C18 1 ω6c) as the major fatty acid. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine. According to the results of the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic characterization, phylogenetic properties and genome analysis, strain S0837T should represent a novel species of the genus Sulfitobacter, for which the name Sulfitobacter maritimus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is S0837T (=MCCC 1K04635T=KCTC 72860T).A novel sulfur-oxidizing bacterium, designated strain LSR1T, was enriched and isolated from a freshwater sediment sample collected from the Pearl River in Guangzhou, PR China. The strain was an obligate chemolithoautotroph, using thiosulfate or sulfide as an electron donor and energy source. Growth of strain LSR1T was observed at 15-40 °C, pH 6.0-7.5 and NaCl concentrations of 0-1.5 %. Strain LSR1T was microaerophilic, with growth only at oxygen content less than 10 %. Anaerobic growth wa
