Novosphingobium arabidopsis is a Gram-negative aerobic rod first isolated from the roots of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. It inhabits the root endosphere and rhizosphere of small flowering plants in temperate regions. This chemoheterotroph may form beneficial associations with its plant hosts and degrade root-derived organic compounds.

Sphingomonas yunnanensis is a Gram-negative alphaproteobacterium in the family Sphingomonadaceae, isolated from soil in Yunnan Province, China. It forms yellow-pigmented colonies and contains glycosphingolipids in its outer membrane, a hallmark of the genus. Sphingomonas species are widely distributed in soils, freshwater, and plant surfaces, and some are capable of degrading complex aromatic compounds.
