dc.descriptionChapter: 25
dc.description.abstractPlanococcaceae, a family within the order Bacillales, embraces 14 genera: Bhargavaea, Caryophanon, Chryseomicrobium, Filibacter, Jeotgalibacillus, Kurthia, Paenisporosarcina, Planococcus, Planomicrobium, Rummeliibacillus, Solibacillus, Sporosarcina, Ureibacillus, and Viridibacillus Members of the family are Gram-variable, spore forming or nonspore forming, and motile or nonmotile; morphology varies from trichomes in case of Caryophanon, filamentous in case of Filibacter to rods or rod-cocci, or spherical rods in case of other genera Diagnostic amino acid in the peptidoglycan is l-lysine with a peptidoglycan variation of A4alfa type Most dominating fatty acids of the family are iso-C<sub>15:0</sub> or anteiso-C<sub>15:0</sub> or iso-C<sub>16:0</sub> or C<sub>16:0</sub>(omega11c) or anteiso-C<sub>17:0</sub> or C16:1(omega7c) alcohol Diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine and unidentified phospholipids and glycolipids except in case of Jeotgalibacillus are the predominant lipids The G+C values of DNA for the family Planococcaceae ranges from 34 to 54 % Phylogenetically a member of Firmicutes group and is closely related to Bacillaceae.
