Abstract

was reported to be a divergent member of the purple photosynthetic bacteria with limited ability to metabolize organic compounds. Whole-genome-based analysis shows that it is indeed only distantly related to freshwater species of Unexpectedly, the genome contains unique gene clusters for potential respiratory nitrate reduction and anaerobic glycerol metabolism.
