Streptomyces chodovensis sp. nov.: a novel candidate for plant growth-promoting actinomycete from bare soil developing on Miocene lacustrine sediment of the Sokolov Coal Basin, Czech Republic

Abstract A novel actinomycete, designated as BCCO 10_0861 T , was isolated from overburden Miocene clay sediments undergoing primary succession in Northwest Czechia and characterized by the polyphasic approach. According to 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, the strain was closel...

Rhodococcus erythropolis ICBD2 membrane and cell wall adaptation to long-chain alkane degradation

Abstract Long-chain hydrocarbon biodegradation is limited by its low bioavailability. Specific strains degrade hydrocarbons including long-chain alkanes. Rhodococcus erythropolis ICBD2 is a hydrocarbonoclastic bacterium isolated from a chronically petroleum-contaminated coastal s...
