Query: NC_008609:708886 Pelobacter propionicus DSM 2379, complete genome

Lineage: Pelobacter propionicus; Pelobacter; Pelobacteraceae; Desulfuromonadales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Common environmental anaerobe. The genus Pelobacter encompasses a unique group of fermentative microorganisms in the delta-proteobacteria. This species is ubiquitous in both marine and fresh water, and in anaerobic sedmiments. It is able to convert the unsaturated hydrocarbon acetylene to to acetate and ethanol via acetylaldehyde as an intermediate. These microorganisms may survive in some sediments as an Fe(III) or elemental sulfur reducer as well as growing fermentatively as an ethanol-oxidizing acetogen.

Subject: NC_014165:597000 Thermobispora bispora DSM 43833 chromosome, complete genome

Lineage: Thermobispora bispora; Thermobispora; Pseudonocardiaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Isolation: Decaying manure; Temp: Thermophile; Temp: 55 - 65C; Isolation: decaying manure. Thermobispora bispora is a thermophilic actinomycete which is able to grow at 65 degrees C and not at 35 degrees C. This organism forms aerial mycelia which contain longitudinal pairs of spores.
