Cheetah

地球上で最も速い陸上動物で、アフリカとイランの草原において短距離走で時速112kmに達する。深い胸部、長い脚、独特の黒い涙縞模様を持つ細身の体型が特徴だ。他の大型ネコ科動物とは異なり、チーターはチャープ音やパー音で鳴く。生息地の分断と大型捕食者との競争により、残存個体数は約7,000頭のみとなっており、危急種に分類されている。

Dyadobacter beijingensisはCytophagaceae科に属するグラム陰性好気性細菌で、中国・北京近郊の土壌から初めて分離されました。有機物の分解に関与する土壌環境に生息しています。他のDyadobacter種と同様に炭素循環に関与し、汚染土壌のバイオレメディエーションに潜在的に活用できます。
