This paper provides an updated classification of the Kingdom Fungi (including fossil fungi) and fungus-like taxa.Five-hundred twenty-three (535) notes are provided for newly introduced taxa changes that have been made since previous outline.In discussion, latest taxonomic in Basidiomycota Mycosphaerellales broadly discussed.Genera listed Mycosphaerellaceae confirmed by DNA sequence analyses, while doubtful genera (DNA sequences being unavailable but traditionally accommodated...
Uranium-containing effluents generated by nuclear energy industry must be efficiently remediated before release to the environment. Currently, numerous microbial-based strategies are being developed for this purpose. In particular, bacterial strain Stenotrophomonas sp. Br8, isolated from U mill tailings porewaters, has been already shown precipitate U(VI) as stable phosphates mediated phosphatase activity. However, upscaling of strategy should overcome some constraints regarding cell...
A Gram-stain negative, rod-shaped, aerobic bacterial strain, BII-R7T, was isolated during a study targeting the culture-dependent microbial diversity occurring in bentonite formations from southern Spain. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that BII-R7T represented member of genus Stenotrophomonas (class Gammaproteobacteria), and related most closely to rhizophila e-p10T (99.2 % similarity), followed by pavanii ICB 89T (98.5 %), maltophilia IAM 12423T, chelatiphaga LPM-5T...
Industrial activities related with the uranium industry are known to generate hazardous waste which must be managed adequately. Amongst remediation available, eco-friendly strategies based on microbial activity have been investigated in depth last decades and biomineralization-based methods, mediated by enzymes (e.g., phosphatase), proposed as a promising approach. However, presence of different forms phosphates these environments plays complicated role thoroughly unraveled optimize results...
A Gram-stain-negative bacterial strain designated Be4T, belonging to the genus Acidovorax, was isolated from mining porewaters sampled in uranium mill tailings repository sites, located Bellezane, near Bessines-sur-Gartempe (Limousin, France). Cells were facultative anaerobic, rod-shaped, non-endospore-forming and motile with flagella. The mean cell size 1.25–1.31 μm long 0.70–0.73 wide. Colonies light yellow, opaque, circular, convex smooth margins, 1–2 mm diameter. Growth occurs at 4–37 °C...
Microbacterium are Gram-positive, nonspore-forming, rod-shaped bacteria inhabiting a wide range of environments including soil, water, dairy products, other living organisms, etc. sp. strain Be9, isolated from mill tailings porewaters in France, shows remarkable behavior presence uranium under distinct conditions, which is the main reason for interest sequencing its genome. In this work, we describe draft genome sequence comprising 4,046,806 bp, with G+C content 68.10% and containing 3,947...
