Complete Genome Sequence of the Marine Hydrocarbon Degrader Alcaligenes aquatilis QD168, Isolated from Crude Oil-Polluted Sediment of Quintero Bay, Central Chile
Open accessAbstract
Alcaligenes aquatilis strain QD168 (= CCUG 69566) is a marine hydrocarbon-degrading bacterium isolated from crude oil-polluted sediment from Quintero Bay, Central Chile. Here, we present the 4.32-Mb complete genome sequence of strain QD168, with 3,892 coding sequences, 58 tRNAs, and a 56.3% G+C content.

Alcaligenes aquatilis QD168 breaks down marine hydrocarbons, and A. aquatilis F8 strain makes cationic biosurfactants.
“Alcaligenes aquatilis QD168 breaks down marine hydrocarbons, and A. aquatilis F8 strain makes cationic biosurfactants.”
From Harnessing bacterial consortia for effective bioremediation: targeted removal of heavy metals, hydrocarbons, and persistent pollutants (2025) · cites this paper as [98]
The Announcement (page unavailable) identifies A. aquatilis QD168 as a marine hydrocarbon-degrading bacterium capable of growing on n-hexadecane and diesel. The paper does not mention strain F8 or cationic biosurfactant production, so it does not support that part of the sentence. (LLM, conf=0.90)

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.
