Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
Four nitrite-dissimilating strains, isolated from Weser Estuary sediments, were investigated using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that these strains belong to the ‘Betaproteobacteria’ and are related to the genus Alcaligenes. The highest level of sequence similarity (100 %) was found with strain M3A (=ATCC 700596), a dimethyl sulfide-producing marine isolate that was included in this study. DNA–DNA hybridizations between the five strains and related Alcaligenes faecalis strains confirmed that the former belong to a single and novel species within the genus Alcaligenes. The isolates are Gram-negative, motile, rod-shaped cells with a DNA G+C content of about 56 mol%. The whole-cell fatty acid profiles of the isolates were very similar and included C16 : 0, C17 : 0 cyclo, C18 : 1 ω7c, summed feature 2 (comprising any combination of C12 : 0 aldehyde, an unknown fatty acid of equivalent chain length 10·928, C16 : 1 iso I and C14 : 0 3-OH) and summed feature 3 (C15 : 0 iso 2-OH and/or C16 : 1 ω7c) as the major fatty acid components. On the basis of their phylogenetic, genomic and phenotypic properties, the five novel strains can be assigned to the genus Alcaligenes as a novel species, for which the name Alcaligenes aquatilis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is LMG 22996T (=CCUG 50924T). |
