“…Members of the genus have been reported to enhance the growth of plants by the production of phytohormones (Bashan & Holguin, 1997;Mehnaz et al, 2007b) and they are possible suppliers of nitrogen to their host plants (Döbereiner, 1983;Okon, 1985). Furthermore, it has been reported that they possess oil-oxidizing potential (Muratova et al, 2005). In this paper, the taxonomic characterization of strain IMMIB TAR-3 T , preliminarily identified as a member of the genus Azospirillum, is presented.…”

A polyphasic taxonomic study was performed on a pink-coloured unknown bacterium isolated from discarded road tar. Comparative analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence demonstrated that the isolate belongs phylogenetically to the genus Azospirillum with Azospirillum lipoferum, A. melinis and A. rugosum as its closest phylogenetic relatives (96.7, 96.6 and 96.6 % similarity to the respective type strains). The generic assignment was confirmed on the basis of chemotaxonomic data, which revealed a fatty acid profile characteristic for the genus Azospirillum, consisting of straight-chain saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, with C 18 : 1 v7c as the major unsaturated non-hydroxylated fatty acid, and C 16 : 0 3-OH as the major hydroxylated fatty acid, and a ubiquinone with ten isoprene units (Q-10) as the predominant respiratory quinone. On the basis of both the phenotypic and molecular genetic evidence, it is proposed that the unknown isolate should be classified within a novel species of the genus Azospirillum, for which the name Azospirillum picis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is IMMIB TAR-3 T (5CCUG 55431 T 5DSM 19922 T ).

In addition, it has been reported that they possess oiloxidizing potential (Muratova et al, 2005). Currently, the genus comprises 11 species, namely Azospirillum lipoferum, A. brasilense, A. amazonense, A. halopraeferens, A. irakense, A. largimobile, A. doebereinerae, A. oryzae, A. melinis, A. canadense and A. zeae.…”

The taxonomic status of a light-orange-coloured bacterial isolate from an oil-contaminated soil sample was characterized by using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Comparative analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences demonstrated that the isolate belonged phylogenetically to the genus Azospirillum, with Azospirillum canadense, Azospirillum brasilense and Azospirillum doebereinerae as its closest phylogenetic relatives (97.3, 97.0 and 97.0 % similarity, respectively). DNA-DNA pairing studies showed that the unidentified organism displayed 25.0, 17.0 and 19.0 % relatedness to the type strains of A. brasilense, A. canadense and A. doebereinerae, respectively. The generic assignment was confirmed by chemotaxonomic data, which revealed a fatty acid profile that was characteristic of the genus Azospirillum, consisting of straight-chain saturated and unsaturated fatty acids with C 18 : 1 v7c as the major fatty acid, and ubiquinone with ten isoprene units (Q-10) as the predominant respiratory quinone. On the basis of both the phenotypic and molecular genetic evidence, it is proposed that the unknown isolate be classified as a representative of a novel species of the genus Azospirillum, for which the name Azospirillum rugosum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is IMMIB AFH-6 T (5CCUG 53966 T 5DSM 19657 T ).

“…Microbial inoculants provide resistance against pathogens. They can Muratova et al (2005) therefore be used in biological control against plant pathogens (Sukweenadhia et al 2015) against weed pest (Biological herbicides) (Babalola et al 2007) and insect pest (Saharan and Nehra 2011). Microbial inoculants can also be used in phytoremediation of polluted soils (Alori and Fawole 2012;Alori 2015).…”
