Halophilic and halotolerant aerobic methylobacteria from the technogenic Solikamsk biotopes

Methylobrevis pamukkalensis gen. nov., sp. nov., a halotolerant restricted facultative methylotroph isolated from saline water

“…Moderately halophilic methylobacteria survive in media containing up to 3 M NaCl (optimally at 0.5–1 M). They belong to the classes Alphaproteobacteria (genera Methylarcula , Leisingera , Methyloligella , Paracoccus ) and Gammaproteobacteria (genera Methylophaga , Methylohalomonas , Methylonatrum ) (Poroshina et al , 2013).…”

Paracoccus a cridae sp. nov., isolated from the insect Acrida cinerea living in deserted cropland

“…Members of the genus Paracoccus are metabolically versatile and have been isolated from soil (Dastager et al, 2011;Nguyen et al, 2015;Sun et al, 2015), sediment (Pan et al, 2014;Jung et al, 2014), activated sludge (Lee et al, 2011;Lee & Lee, 2013;Sun et al, 2013), root nodules (Deng et al, 2011), cornetfish (Kim et al, 2010) and marine environments . At the time of writing, the genus Paracoccus included 46 species with validly published names, with recent introduction of Paracoccus fistulariae (Kim et al, 2010); P. sphaerophysae (Deng et al, 2011); P. caeni (Lee et al, 2011); P. isoporae ; P. stylophorae ; P. rhizosphaerae (K€ ampfer et al, 2012); P. niistensis (Dastager et al, 2011); P. tibetensis (Zhu et al, 2012); P. limosus (Lee & Lee, 2013); P. huijuniae (Sun et al, 2013); P. communis (Poroshina et al, 2013); P. sediminis (Pan et al, 2014); P. lutimaris (Jung et al, 2014); P. pacificus ; P. panacisoli (Nguyen et al, 2015); P. sanguinis (McGinnis et al, 2015); P. angustae (Sun et al, 2015) and P. cavernae (Dominguez-Moñino et al, 2016).…”

Paracoccus laeviglucosivorans sp. nov., an l-glucose-utilizing bacterium isolated from soil

“…Most species of this genus utilize a wide variety of organic compounds as carbon sources, and some show chemolithoautotrophic growth using CO 2 as a carbon source. This genus contains 43 recognized species, including the recently described ‘ Paracoccus angustae ’ (Sun et al , 2015), P. communis (Poroshina et al , 2013), P. huijuniae (Sun et al , 2013), P. limosus (Lee & Lee, 2013), P. lutimaris (Jung et al , 2014), P. panacisoli (Nguyen et al , 2015), P. sanguinis (McGuinnis et al , 2015), P. sediminis (Pan et al , 2014) and P. tibetensis (Zhu et al , 2013). These species were isolated from a variety of environmental habitats, including soil, water, root nodules and activated sludge, and some were isolated from clinical specimens.…”
