Transcriptional Analysis of Acinetobacter sp. neg1 Capable of Degrading Ochratoxin A [PDF]
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a nephrotoxic and potentially carcinogenic mycotoxin produced by several species of Aspergillus and Penicillium, contaminating grapes, wine and a variety of food products.

Six aerobic, non-motile, non-haemolytic, Gram-stain-negative, oxidase-negative strains (185T, 187, 323-1T, 194, dk386T and dk771) were recovered from different faecal samples of Equus kiang on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau. In the 16S rRNA gene sequences, one strain pair, 185T/187, shared highest similarity to

Taxonomy of the Genus Acinetobacter with the Recognition of Acinetobacter baumannii sp. nov., Acinetobacter haemolyticus sp. nov., Acinetobacter johnsonii sp. nov., and Acinetobacter junii sp. nov. and Emended Descriptions of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus and Acinetobacter lwoffii [PDF]
Using deoxyribonucleic acid hybridization (S1 nuclease method), we identified 12 hybridization groups (genospecies) containing 74 strains among 85 Acinetobacter strains studied. A total of 28 characters which allowed identification of the genospecies were applied to 266 strains. Of the 12 genospecies, 11 could be unambiguously identified. Genospecies 1

Acinetobacter portensis sp. nov. and Acinetobacter guerrae sp. nov., isolated from raw meat
The taxonomic status of six strains of Acinetobacter obtained from meat samples, collected from supermarkets in Porto, Portugal, was investigated using polyphasic analysis. Partial rpoB sequence similarities lower than 95 % to other

Acinetobacter bereziniae sp. nov. and Acinetobacter guillouiae sp. nov., to accommodate Acinetobacter genomic species 10 and 11, respectively [PDF]
Acinetobacter genospecies (genomic species) 10 and 11 were described by Bouvet and Grimont in 1986 on the basis of DNA–DNA reassociation studies and comprehensive phenotypic analysis. In the present study, the names Acinetobacter bereziniae sp. nov. and Acinetobacter guillouiae sp.

The taxonomic status of 24 haemolytic, non-glucose acidifying Acinetobacter strains that did not belong to any previously described species was investigated by means of a polyphasic approach. Using AFLP fingerprinting, amplified rDNA restriction analysis and phenotypic characterization, the strains were classified into two phenetically coherent groups (

Effect of Acinetobacter sp on metalaxyl degradation and metabolite profile of potato seedlings (Solanum tuberosum L.) alpha variety. [PDF]
One of the most serious diseases in potato cultivars is caused by the pathogen Phytophthora infestans, which affects leaves, stems and tubers. Metalaxyl is a fungicide that protects potato plants from Phytophthora infestans.
