Methanogenium is a genus of archaeans in the family Methanomicrobiaceae.[1] The type species is Methanogenium cariaci.[2]
Description and habitat
The species within Methanogenium are coccoid in shape and Gram-negatives and, like other methanogenic archaea, they produce methane from carbon dioxide, hydrogen or formate as substrates.[2] Although they occasionally have flagella, they are non-motile. They are strictly anaerobic, and can be found in marine and lake sediments that lack oxygen.[3]
Phylogeny
The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN)[4] and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI).[1]
