Complete genome sequence of Emphasis Type="Italic"Nibribacter radioresistens/Emphasis DG15C, a radiation resistant bacterium

摘要

BackgroundsThe ionizing radiation from the gamma rays is damaging the genetic materials of the cells, possibly leading to cell death and cause permanent changes within daughter cells. A red pigmented, Gramnegative, aerobic, short-rod shaped, non-motile, UV and gamma radiation tolerant bacterium Nibribacter radioresistens DG15C was isolated from a soil sample collected in a rice field in South Korea.
