Phylogenetic tree highlighting the position of Oceanobacillus picturae strain S1T relative to other strains of the genus Oceanobacillus. Strain S1T (CSUR P1091 = DSM 28586) relative to other type strains within the genus Oceanobacillus. The strains and their corresponding GenBank accession numbers for 16S rRNA genes are (type = T): Oceanobacillus indicireducens strain A21T, NR_113330, Oceanobacillus chironomi strain T3944DT, NR_043700, Oceanobacillus caeni strain S-11 T, NR_041533, Oceanobacillus chungangensis strain CAU 1051T, NR_109672, Oceanobacillus picturae strain R-5321T, NR_028952, Oceanobacillus manasiensis strain YD3-56T, NR_116624, Oceanobacillus kapialis strain SSK2-2T, NR-112740, Oceanobacillus polygoni strain SA9T, NR_114348, Oceanobacillus profundus strain CL-MP28T, NR_043778, Oceanobacillus kimchii strain X50T, NR_117544, Oceanobacillus iheyensis strain HTE831T, NR_075027, Oceanobacillus iheyensis strain HTE831T, NR_028001, Oceanobacillus oncorhynchi subsp.incalanensis strain 20AGT, NR_042257, Oceanobacillus locisalsi strain CHL-21T, NR_116461, Oceanobacillus sojae strain Y27T, NR_112845 and Oceanobacillus neutriphilus strain A1gT, NR_116424. Phylogeny pipeline [28] was used, wherein sequences were aligned using MUSCLE [29] alignment curation by Gblocks [30] and construction of phylogenic tree performed using PhyML [31]. Numbers at the nodes are bootstrap values obtained by repeating the analysis 100 times. The scale bar represents a 2 % nucleotides sequences divergence
