Rhodovulum phaeolacus sp. nov. a phototrophic alphaproteobacterium isolated from a brown pond
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Two strains of oval-rod shaped, Gram-negative, phototrophic, purple non-sulfur bacteria designated JA580(T) and JA595 were isolated from a sediment sample collected from a brown pond. Strain JA580(T) was designated as the type strain, while strain JA595 as an additional strain has similar characteristics to the type strain. Strain JA580(T) was non-motile and grew photoheterotrophically with a number of organic compounds serving as carbon source/electron donor. Intracellular photosynthetic membranes were of the vesicular type. Bacteriochlorophyll a and carotenoids of the spheroidene series were present as the major photosynthetic pigments. Strain JA580(T) requires yeast extract for growth. Strain JA580(T) has an obligate requirement for sulfide or thiosulfate for growth. C(18:1)ω7c, C(18:0), C(18:1)ω9c were the predominant components of cellular fatty acids. Phylogenetic analysis on the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain JA580(T) clustered with species of the genus Rhodovulum of the family Rhodobacteraceae and is most closely related to the type strains of Rhodovulum adriaticum, Rhodovulum iodosum (96.5%), Rhodovulum robiginosum (96%), Rhodovulum imhoffii (95.6%) and other members of the genus Rhodovulum (<95%). On the basis of phenotypic and molecular genetic evidence, it is proposed that strain JA580(T) should be classified as a novel species of the genus Rhodovulum of the family Rhodobacteraceae, with the species name Rhodovulum phaeolacus sp. nov. The type strain of the species is JA580(T) (=NBRC 107612(T) =KCTC 5963(T)).

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
