Research Abstract |
The studies on bacterial distributions in the Antarctic has been limited due to the extreme climate of the Antarctic. The purpose of this study is to find the phylogenetically novel bacteria from the samples collected in the Antarctic. In this study, more than 1,000 bacterial strains were isolated from the samples collected in Antarctica, and about 50 bacterial strains were considered as phylogenetically novel bacteria. The detailed analyses were performed to clarify the phylogenetic situation, physiological characteristics and morphological characteristics of these bacteria.
