Acetic acid bacteria belonging to the new genus Asaia and the genera Gluconobacter, Gluconacetobacter, Acetobacter and Acidomonas of the alpha ─ 1 sub- group ubiquitously contained spermidine as the major polyamine. Aerobic bacteriochlorophyll a ─ containing Acidisphaera, Craurococcus and Paracraurococcus(alpha ─ 1)and Roseibium (alpha-2)contained spermidine and lacked homospermidine. New Rhizobium species, including some species transferred from the genera Agrobacterium and Allorhizobium, and new Sinorhizobium and Mesorhizobium species of the alpha ─ 2 subgroup contained homospermidine as a major polyamine. Homospermidine was the major polyamine in the genera Oligotropha, Carbophilus, Zavarzinia, Blastobacter, Starkeya and Rhodoblastus of the alpha ─ 2 subgroup. Rhodobaca bogoriensis of the alpha ─ 3 subgroup contained spermidine. Within the alpha ─ 4 sub- group, the genus Sphingomonas has been divided into four clusters, and species of the emended Sphingomonas(cluster I)contained homospermidine whereas those of the three newly described genera Sphingobium, Novosphingobium and Sphingopyxis(corresponding to clusters II, III and IV of the former Sphingomonas)ubiquitously contained spermidine.

Loganathan and Sudha Nair Correspondence M. S. Swaminathan Research Foundation, 111 Cross St, Tharamani Institutional Area, Chennai, Sudha Nair Madras 600 113, India [email protected] A novel species, Swaminathania salitolerans gen. nov., sp. nov., was isolated from the rhizosphere, roots and stems of salt-tolerant, mangrove-associated wild rice (Porteresia coarctata Tateoka) using nitrogen-free, semi-solid LGI medium at pH 5?5. Strains were Gram-negative, rod-shaped and motile with peritrichous flagella. The strains grew well in the presence of 0?35 % acetic acid, 3 % NaCl and 1 % KNO3, and produced acid from L-arabinose, D-glucose, glycerol, ethanol, D-mannose, D-galactose and sorbitol. They oxidized ethanol and grew well on mannitol and glutamate agar. The fatty acids 18 : 1v7c/v9t/v12t and 19 : 0cyclo v8c constituted 30?41 and 11?80 % total fatty acids, respectively, whereas 13 : 1 AT 12–13 was found at 0?53 %. DNA G+C content was 57?6–59?9 mol% and the major quinone was Q-10. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that these strains were related to the genera Acidomonas, Asaia, Acetobacter, Gluconacetobacter, Gluconobacter and Kozakia in the Acetobacteraceae. Isolates were able to fix nitrogen and solubilized phosphate in the presence of NaCl. Based on overall analysis of the tests and comparison with the characteristics of members of the Acetobacteraceae, a novel genus and species is proposed for these isolates, Swaminathania salitolerans gen.

  • Asaia Lannensis Bacteremia in a ‘Needle Freak’ Patient
    CASE REPORT For reprint orders, please contact: [email protected] Asaia lannensis bacteremia in a ‘needle freak’ patient Edoardo Carretto*,1, Rosa Visiello1, Marcellino Bardaro1, Simona Schivazappa2, Francesca Vailati3, Claudio Farina3 & Daniela Barbarini4 The genus Asaia has gained much interest lately owing to constant new species discoveries and its role as a potential opportunistic pathogen to humans. Here we describe a transient bacteremia due to Asaia lannensis in a patient with a psychiatric disorder (compulsive self- injection of different substances). Common phenotypic methods of identification failed to identify this organism, and only restriction fragment lenght polymorphism of PCR-amplified 16S rRNA gene allowed for proper identification. The isolate was highly resistant to most antibiotics. The paper also discusses the currently available medical literature, acknowledges the potential problems linked to the isolation of these strains and proposes an approach to species identification that can be applied in a clinical microbiology laboratory. First draft submitted: 7 April 2015; Accepted for publication: 8 October 2015; Published online: 17 December 2015 A 28-year-old female patient, known to have psychiatric problems (compulsive self-injection of dif- KEYWORDS ferent substances), was admitted by the Emergency Department of the IRCCS Arcispedale Santa • Asaia • Asaia lannensis Maria Nuova of Reggio Emilia, Italy, due to pyrexia, with a temperature exceeding 40°C the night • bacteremia • clinical before the admission.

  • Isolation and Identification of Asaia Sp. in Anopheles Spp. Mosquitoes
    Rami et al. Parasites & Vectors (2018) 11:367 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-018-2955-9 RESEARCH Open Access Isolation and identification of Asaia sp. in Anopheles spp. mosquitoes collected from Iranian malaria settings: steps toward applying paratransgenic tools against malaria Abbas Rami†, Abbasali Raz†, Sedigheh Zakeri and Navid Dinparast Djadid* Abstract Background: In recent years, the genus Asaia (Rhodospirillales: Acetobacteraceae) has been isolated from different Anopheles species and presented as a promising tool to combat malaria. This bacterium has unique features such as presence in different organs of mosquitoes (midgut, salivary glands and reproductive organs) of female and male mosquitoes and vertical and horizontal transmission. These specifications lead to the possibility of introducing Asaia as a robust candidate for malaria vector control via paratransgenesis technology. Several studies have been performed on the microbiota of Anopheles mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) in Iran and the Middle East to find a suitable candidate for controlling the malaria based on paratransgenesis approaches. The present study is the first report of isolation, biochemical and molecular characterization of the genus Asaia within five different Anopheles species which originated from different zoogeographical zones in the south, east, and north of Iran. Methods: Mosquitoes originated from field-collected and laboratory-reared colonies of five Anopheles spp. Adult mosquitoes were anesthetized; their midguts were isolated by dissection, followed by grinding the midgut contents which were then cultured in enrichment broth media and later in CaCO3 agar plates separately. Morphological, biochemical and physiological characterization were carried out after the appearance of colonies. For molecular confirmation, selected colonies were cultured, their DNAs were extracted and PCR was performed on the 16S ribosomal RNA gene using specific newly designed primers.
