Biology:Methanothermus

From HandWiki

Methanothermus is a genus of microbes within the family Methanothermaceae.[1] The species within this genes are hyperthermophiles and strictly anaerobic. They produce energy through the reduction of carbon dioxide with hydrogen to produce methane. it is found in hydrothermal vents with temperatures as high as 85 °C and pH 6.5.[2]

Phylogeny

The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN)[3] and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI).[1]
