An aerobic chemoheterotrophic gliding bacterium, designated RYG(T), was isolated from a soil in Germany. Cells were Gram-stain-negative, thin rods (0.4-0.6 µm in width and 2.0-5.5 µm in length). Cells multiplied by normal cell division and no resting stages were observed. Colonies were yellow and displayed swarming edges. Gliding motility was observed in wet mounts. Strain RYG(T) grew at pH 5.6-7.7 (optimum pH 6.6-7.0), at 13-37 °C (optimum 25-30 °C) and with 0-1.0 % NaCl (optimum 0-0.1 %). The isolate was incapable of atmospheric nitrogen fixation and grew on most mono- and disaccharides as well as a few polysaccharides and organic acids. The predominant menaquinone was MK-7, the major cellular fatty acids were C(16 : 1)ω5c and iso-C(15 : 0) and the major intact polar lipids were composed of phosphatidylethanolamine derivatives and two unknown series. The DNA G+C content was 49.9 mol%. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, the isolate belonged to the phylum Bacteroidetes, class Cytophagia, order Cytophagales, but was only distantly related to any cultured bacteria. The closest relatives were Ohtaekwangia koreensis 3B-2(T) and Ohtaekwangia kribbensis 10AO(T) (both 93 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity). We propose a novel genus and species, Chryseolinea serpens gen. nov., sp. nov.. Strain RYG(T) ( = DSM 24574(T) = ATCC BAA-2075(T)) is the type strain.

Ecological practices increase soil fertility and microbial diversity under intensive farming.
Sci Total Environ
December 2024
Department of Agronomy & Center for Intensive Mediterranean Agrosystems and Agri-food Biotechnology (CIAIMBITAL), University of Almeria, E-04120 Almería, Spain.
Article Synopsis
- - Intensive farming strategies, particularly ecological intensification (EI) and organic management, are more sustainable than conventional management (CO) as they improve soil quality while maintaining high productivity levels.
- - The study revealed that EI leads to greater soil fertility and biodiversity, evidenced by higher numbers of beneficial bacterial taxa compared to CO, which mainly relies on inorganic fertilizers and often degrades soil health.
- - Different bacterial communities were linked to each management type, with CO support genera related to nitrogen and phosphorus cycles, whereas EI promoted bacteria that enhance organic matter breakdown and nutrient cycling, ultimately benefiting soil health.
4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU) enhances drought tolerance of apple by regulating rhizosphere microbial diversity and root architecture.

Article Synopsis
- Dwarfing rootstocks are popular for planting high-density apple orchards, but they need a lot of water because their roots are shallow and they're sensitive to drought.
- A special compound called 4-Methylumbelliferon (4-MU) helps drought-tolerant rootstocks grow better under dry conditions and was found to boost growth in dwarfing rootstocks when added.
- Adding 4-MU not only improved the dwarfing rootstocks' growth but also encouraged helpful bacteria and fungi in the soil that support plants during drought.
Efficient nitrogen removal through coupling biochar with zero-valent iron by different packing modes in bioretention system.

School of Environmental Science and Engineering, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, 200240, PR China. Electronic address:
Three kinds of bioretention were designed to explore the effects of zero-valent iron (ZVI) and biochar on the nitrogen removal performance and to seek a more reasonable packing method in this study. The results showed that the effluent removal rates of nitrate, ammonium and total nitrogen were 53.30 ± 12.

Two Gram stain-negative bacterial strains designated Jin1 and Jin2 were isolated from artificial pond water in the Republic of Korea and investigated in the present study using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that these two strains belonged to the genera Chryseolinea and Piscinibacter due to their highest similarities with the 16S rRNA gene sequences of Chryseolinea serpens RYG (98.7%) and Piscinibacter aquaticus IMCC1728 (97.

A lemon-chiffon strain, designated QH1ED-6-2, was isolated from a soil sample collected from Qinghai Virgin Forests, Qinghai Province, PR China. The strain was Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped and motile by gliding. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain QH1ED-6-2 belongs to the family , and has the highest similarity values of 93.
