Biology:Limnothrix
From HandWiki
Limnothrix is a genus of cyanobacteria belonging to the family Pseudanabaenaceae.[1]
There are no available genomes for any accepted species of Limnothrix as of 2023. The 16S ribosomal DNA sequences find Limnothrix polyphyletic with regard to Pseudanabaena.[2]
As of Release 10-RS262 (April 2024), GTDB contains an error where it applies the name Limnothrix to a group more appropriately named Picosynechococcus. This error occurred due to a combination of the lack of genomes from true Limnothrix and the presence of a Limnothrix rosea more appropriately classified under Picosynechococcus.[3]
