Italic title Refimprove date March 2012 Taxobox color lightgrey name Buchnera aphidicola regnum Bacterium Bacteria phylum Proteobacteria classis Gamma Proteobacteria ordo Enterobacteriales familia Enterobacteriaceae genus Buchnera species B. aphidicola binomial Buchnera aphidicola Buchnera aphidicola a member of the Proteobacteria , is the primary Endosymbiosis endosymbiont of Aphid aphids , and has been studied in the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum . Buchnera is believed to have had a free living, Gram negative ancestor similar to a modern Enterobacteriaceae , such as Escherichia coli . Buchnera is 3 m in diameter and has some of the key characteristics of their Enterobacteriaceae relatives, such as a Gram negative cell wall. However, unlike most other Gram negative bacteria, Buchnera lacks the genes to produce lipopolysaccharides for its outer membrane. The long association with aphids and the limitation of Chromosomal crossover crossover events due to strictly vertical transmission has seen the deletion of genes required for anaerobic respiration , the synthesis of amino sugars , fatty acids , phospholipids , and complex carbohydrates . This has resulted not only in one of the smallest known genomes of any living organism, but also one of the most genetically stable.

Wikify date July 2011 Fibrolytic Bacteria constitute a group of microorganisms that are able to process complex plant polysaccharides thanks to their capacity to synthesize cellulolytic and hemicellulolytic enzymes. Polysaccharides are present in plant cellular cell walls in a compact fiber form were they are mainly composed of cellulose and hemicellulose. Fibrolytic enzymes, which are classified as cellulases, can hydrolize the 1 4 bonds in plant polysaccharides. Cellulase and hemicellulase also known as xylanase are the two main representatives of these enzymes. Content 1. Biological characteristics 2.Cellulolytic communities 3.Applications 3.1.General applications 3.2. Energy applications 4.Discovery of fibrolytic genes and fibrolytic bacteria 4.1. Analysis of microbial community specificity 4.2. Metagenomic sequentiation 4.3. Identification of carbohidrate active genes 4.4. Identificacion of fibrolytic microorganisms 5.External links 6.References Biological characteristics Fibrolytic bacteria use glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway as the main metabolic routes to catabolize carbohydrates in order to obtain energy and carbon backbones. They use ammonia as the major and practically exclusive source of nitrogen, and they require several B vitamins for their development. They often depend on other microorganisms to obtain some of their nutrients. Although their growth rate is considered slow, it can be enhanced in the presence of considerable amounts of short chain fatty acids isobutyric and isovaleric . These compounds are normally generated as a product of the amino acid fermentative activity of other microorganisms . Because of their habitat conditions, most fibrolytic bacteria are anaerobic . Cellulolytic communities Most fibrolytic bacteria are classified as Bacteroidetes or Firmicutes and include several bacterial species with diverse morphological and physiological characteristics.
