Query: NC_011832:2527183 Candidatus Methanosphaerula palustris E1-9c, complete genome
Lineage: Methanosphaerula palustris; Methanosphaerula; Methanoregulaceae; Methanomicrobiales; Euryarchaeota; Archaea
General Information: Candidatus Methanosphaerula palustris was isolated from an organically rich wetland in central New York State, USA. This methanogen is highly sensitive to the concentration of sulfur in the soil. Wetlands methanogenic bacterium.
Subject: NC_007760:4911181 Anaeromyxobacter dehalogenans 2CP-C, complete genome
Lineage: Anaeromyxobacter dehalogenans; Anaeromyxobacter; Myxococcaceae; Myxococcales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This strain differs from other isolates based on the combination of its ability to use 2,5-dichlorophenol and its inability to use nitrate as a strong electron acceptor. It can also dechlorinate 2,4-dichlorophenol and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol much faster than other isolates. Can dehalogenate chlorinated phenols. This anaerobic species was originally isolated by enrichment and isolation of single plate-grown colonies, and was the first pure culture of myxobacteria able to grow anaerobically.
