Fusibacter tunisiensis sp. nov., isolated from an anaerobic reactor used to treat olive-mill wastewater
Abstract
Strain BELH1 T, a novel mesophilic, anaerobic, halotolerant, rod-shaped bacterium, was isolated from a Tunisian wastewater digester. The cells of the strain are motile, measure 0.5×2–5 µm, and occur singly or in pairs. The strain reduced thiosulfate and elemental sulfur (but not sulfate or sulfite) into sulfide. It grew at 15–40 °C (optimum 30 °C), pH 5.8–8.4 (optimum 7) and with 0–10 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum 3.0 %). The genomic DNA G+C content of strain BELH1 T was 38.2 mol% and the strain’s predominant cellular fatty acids were C 14 : 0, a summed feature that contained iso-C 17 : 1 and/or anteiso-C 17 : 1 B, and C 16 : 0. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the novel strain was most closely related to Fusibacter paucivorans (94.8 % sequence similarity). Based on phenotypic, phylogenetic and taxonomic characteristics, strain BELH1 T represents a novel species of the genus Fusibacter , for which the name Fusibacter tunisiensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is BELH1 T ( = DSM 24436 T = JCM 17481 T).

“Contrary to PG cultures, the Na2SO4 cultures were represented by a higher number of haloterant or halophilic genera also affiliated to the Clostridiales order (Figure 6), such as the thiosulfate- and/or sulfur-reducing Fusibacter spp. (Ben Hania et al., 2012) and the non-sugar fermenting Clostridiisalibacter spp. (Liebgott et al., 2008), isolated from olive mill wastewater in Tunisia.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
