Query: NC_007644:161222 Moorella thermoacetica ATCC 39073, complete genome
Lineage: Moorella thermoacetica; Moorella; Thermoanaerobacteraceae; Thermoanaerobacterales; Firmicutes; Bacteria
General Information: Moorella thermoacetica, formerly Clostridium thermoaceticum, can grow on hydrogen and fix carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide with the production of acetate. It is found at the bottom of stagnant ponds and forms extremely heat-resistant spores.
Subject: NC_012587:2744731 Rhizobium sp. NGR234, complete genome
Lineage: Sinorhizobium fredii; Sinorhizobium; Rhizobiaceae; Rhizobiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This organism, much like other Rhizobia, forms a symbiotic relationship with a leguminous plant, such as soybean, cowpea or pigeon pea. Expression of nodulation genes results in production of a nodulation signal which the plant cell recognizes inducing root nodule formation. The plant cell provides carbon compounds for the bacterium to grow on.
