Draft Genome Sequence of Chloracidobacterium sp. CP2_5A, a Phototrophic Member of the Phylum Acidobacteria Recovered from a Japanese Hot Spring
Ward LM, McGlynn SE, Fischer WW. 2017. Draft Genome Sequence of Chloracidobacterium sp. CP2_5A, a Phototrophic Member of the Phylum Acidobacteria Recovered from a Japanese Hot Spring. Genome Announcements. 5(40):1-2
The phylum Acidobacteria contains a single known phototrophic member, Chloracidobacterium thermophilum, which was recovered from a hot spring metagenome from Yellowstone National Park. Here, we expand the diversity of the genus Chloracidobacterium with a genome recovered from a hot spring in Japan, extending the known range of this lineage to a new continent.
