The 16S rRNA gene sequences of 34 named and unnamed clostridial strains were determined by PCR direct sequencing compared with more than 80 previously the published representative species other low- G+C-content gram-positive genera, thereby providing an almost complete picture genealogical interrelationships clostridia. results our phylogenetic analysis corroborate extend previous findings in showing that genus Clostridium is extremely heterogeneous, many phylogenetically intermixed...

The human intestinal tract harbors a complex microbial ecosystem which plays key role in nutrition and health. Although this microbiota has been studied great detail by culture techniques, microscopic counts on feces suggest that 60 to 80% of the observable bacteria cannot be cultivated. Using comparative analysis cloned 16S rRNA gene (rDNA) sequences, we have investigated bacterial diversity (both cultivated noncultivated bacteria) within an adult-male fecal sample. 284 clones obtained from...

We describe a set of two “new generation” general circulation models the Martian atmosphere derived from we originally developed in early 1990s. The new share same physical parameterizations but use complementary numerical methods to solve atmospheric dynamic equations. vertical resolution near surface has been refined, and domain extended above 80 km. These changes are accompanied by inclusion state‐of‐the‐art better simulate dynamical processes (boundary layer scheme, subgrid‐scale...

Streptococci (206 cultures) previously identified as enterococci were retrieved from storage and reidentified by using tests designed to identify species of the genus Enterococcus. Of these 188, 91% correctly Enterococcus species. remaining strains, nine (4%) unidentified six (3%) 3 (1.5%) Leuconostoc sp. Lactococcus sp., respectively. Two new discovered: E. raffinosus solitarius. DNA-DNA hybridizations performed on selected strains assure correct identification. Cultures representing 10 12...

Several major invasive bacterial pathogens are encapsulated. Expression of a polysaccharide capsule is essential for survival in the blood, and thus virulence, but also target host antibodies basis effective vaccines. Encapsulated species typically exhibit antigenic variation express one number immunochemically distinct capsular polysaccharides that define serotypes. We provide sequences biosynthetic genes all 90 serotypes Streptococcus pneumoniae relate these to known structures patterns...

Determining how El Niño and its impacts may change over the next 10 to 100 years remains a difficult scientific challenge. Ocean-atmosphere coupled general circulation models (CGCMs) are routinely used both analyze mechanisms teleconnections predict evolution on broad range of time scales, from seasonal centennial. The ability simulate as an emergent property these has largely improved last few years. Nevertheless, diversity model simulations present-day indicates current limitations in our...
