Example sentences for: ferrooxidans

How can you use “ferrooxidans” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • A simple phylogenetic tree showing the relationships between the arsenate reductases of seven Bacteria (those that had been confirmed to possess the gene at that time) was presented as part of a study that identified the arsenic resistance genes of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans (now Acidithiobacillus ferroxidans ) [ 27 ] . Saltikov and Olson [ 28 ] used probes/primers based on the E. coli ars operon to detect ars genes in natural environments, and presented a phylogenetic analysis of these genes, however their analysis was largely confined to enteric bacteria (those that were similar enough to E. coli to be detected) and they emphasized the arsB gene rather than arsC . As part of a review of microbial arsenic transformations, we recently determined a preliminary arsC phylogeny based on 19 sequences [ 29 ] . These three studies reported phylogenies that suggested a common origin for the ars genes examined [ 27 28 29 ] . An alternative view suggested by Mukhopadhyay et al.

  • A number of taxa do show arsC phylogenies that are inconsistent with the established 16S rRNA evolutionary tree, perhaps the most dramatic being the separation of some of the non-enteric γ-Proteobacteria ( Pseudomonas putida , P. aeruginosa , and A. ferrooxidans ) from the Enterobacteriales.
