Query: NC_015847:1261276 Methanococcus maripaludis XI chromosome, complete genome

Lineage: Methanococcus maripaludis; Methanococcus; Methanococcaceae; Methanococcales; Euryarchaeota; Archaea

General Information: Methanococcus maripaludis is an obligately anaerobic, mesophilic, methane-producing archaeon. Growth on hydrogen and carbon dioxide results in the production of methane as a waste product. M. maripaludis stands out among methanogenic archaea as an ideal model species because of fast reproducible growth and effective genetic tools.

Subject: NC_013790:2690740 Methanobrevibacter ruminantium M1 chromosome, complete genome

Lineage: Methanobrevibacter ruminantium; Methanobrevibacter; Methanobacteriaceae; Methanobacteriales; Euryarchaeota; Archaea

General Information: Methanobrevibacter ruminantium is a dominant ruminant methanogen. It can be used as an indicator of fecal pollution from domesticated ruminants in environmental water samples.
