Lineage: Chloracidobacterium thermophilum; Chloracidobacterium; Acidobacteriaceae; ; Acidobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: This organism produces bacteriochlorophyll a and c under oxic conditions and represents a new group of photosynthetic bacteria. The only known chlorophototroph in the phylum Acidobacteria. Aerobic photoheterotroph that lacks the ability to synthesize several essential nutrients. Naturally inhabits microbial mats of alkaline siliceous hot springs in Yellowstone National Park.

Subject: NC_006461:953817 Thermus thermophilus HB8, complete genome

Lineage: Thermus thermophilus; Thermus; Thermaceae; Thermales; Deinococcus-Thermus; Bacteria

General Information: This thermophilic non-acidophilic organism was originally isolated from a hot spring in Japan. Thermophilic bacterium. This species is extremely thermophilic and has been useful in analyzing bacterial life and biochemical processes under high temperature as well as being a source of thermophilic enzymes.
