Season, Body Condition and Developmental Stage Influence the Gut Microbiota of the Sole Living Rhynchocephalian Reptile (<i>Sphenodon punctatus</i>). [PDF]
Seasonality plays a crucial role for many species, especially reptiles. We tested whether the tuatara, an endemic New Zealand reptile and the sole extant member of the order Rhynchocephalia, maintains a stable gut microbiota over 2 years of sampling across three seasons (summer, autumn and spring) or if the dominant bacterial community varies with ...

Occurrence of Pasteurellaceae and Neisseriaceae bacteria in the pharyngeal and respiratory tract of dogs and cats – Short communication [PDF]
AbstractThe occurrence of members of the Pasteurellaceae and Neisseriaceae families was studied in dogs and cats. A total of 110 nasal and pharyngeal swab samples from 47 dogs and 8 cats were collected. Most of the strains were identified by 16S rDNA sequencing, except Frederiksenia canicola and Pasteurella multocida where species-specific polymerase ...

Structural analysis of haemoglobin binding by HpuA from the Neisseriaceae family [PDF]
AbstractThe Neisseriaceae family of bacteria causes a range of diseases including meningitis, septicaemia, gonorrhoea and endocarditis, and extracts haem from haemoglobin as an important iron source within the iron-limited environment of its human host.

Taxonomy of Bordetella and Related Organisms of the Families Achromobacteraceae, Brucellaceae, and Neisseriaceae [PDF]
A numerical taxonomic study was made of strains belonging to the genera Bordetella, Alcaligenes, Brucella, Acinetobacter, Moraxella, Neisseria, Haemophilus, Actinobacillus, and Pasteurella, together with a few strains from allied genera. They were examined for 139 characters covering a wide range of tests and properties. The strains fell into two major

Phylogeny of the genus Simonsiella and other members of the Neisseriaceae. [PDF]
16S rDNA was sequenced from 16 strains of the oral commensal Simonsiella and was used to assess relationships between Simonsiella strains and other members of the Neisseriaceae. In all analyses, Simonsiella strains grouped according to established species designations and the mammalian hosts from which they were isolated.

Phylogenomic analysis of the understudiedNeisseriaceaespecies reveals a poly- and paraphyleticKingellagenus [PDF]
AbstractTaxonomic classification and phylogenetic analysis of theNeisseriaceaefamily has focused on the pathogensNeisseria meningitidisandNeisseria gonorrhoeae. Less is known about the relationships of commensalNeisseriaspecies and otherNeisseriaceaegenera, raising the possibility that the phylogeny of this family may not agree with taxonomy.

Occurrence and Patterns of Waxes in Neisseriaceae [PDF]
Forty-five strains classified in the family Neisseriaceae were analysed for wax esters by gas-liquid chromatography. The amounts and types of waxes varied between the taxa. Waxes were not detected in 16 strains of 'true neisseriae' (genus Neisseria) or in two strains of Kingella, but they were found in all 'false neisseriae', in all species of ...

Inter- and Intrageneric Similarities of Ribosomal Ribonucleic Acid Cistrons of the Neisseriaceae [PDF]
Filter-fixed deoxyribonucleic acid preparations from organisms of the Neisseriaceae and from two unpigmented, psychrophilic, misnamed “Achromobacter” strains were hybridized with labeled ribosomal ribonucleic acids (rRNAs) from Acinetobacter calcoaceticus ATCC 23055T(T = type strain), Alteromonas macleodii ATCC 27126T, Escherichia coli B, Pasteurella ...
