Polynucleobacter hirudinilacicolaHahn MW, Koll U, Schmidt J, Huymann LR, Karbon G, Lang E (2018) Polynucleobacter hirudinilacicola sp. nov. and Polynucleobacter campilacus sp. nov., both isolated from freshwater systems, International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology 68(8):2593-2601 is an aerobic, chemo-organotrophic, non-motile, free-living bacterium of the genus Polynucleobacter.LPSN - List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature
The type strain was isolated from a small alkaline lake located in Austria. The genome sequence of the strain was fully determined.NCBI Genome The type strain dwells as a free-living, planktonic bacterium in the water column of the lake, thus is part of freshwater bacterioplankton. Among the described Polynucleobacter species, P. hirudinilacicola is closest related to P. campilacus.
