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 jiangsuensisはCytophagaceae科に属するグラム陰性のオレンジ色色素を持つ細菌で、中国・江蘇省の土壌サンプルから初めて分離されました。好気性で桿菌型、非運動性であり、土壌環境で多糖類を分解する能力を持ちます。Dyadobacter属は陸域および淡水域の生息地に広く分布する多様なBacteroidetes門の一部です。
