Genome-wide and constrained ordination-based analyses of EC code data support reclassification of the species of Massilia La Scola et al. 2000 into Telluria Bowman et al. 1993, Mokoshia gen. nov. and Zemynaea gen. nov

Abstract
Based on genome-wide data, Massilia species belonging to the clade including Telluria mixta LMG 11547T should be entirely transferred to the genus Telluria owing to the nomenclatural priority of the type species

Abstract
Four formate-utilizing methanogens were isolated from ovine (strain KM1H5-1PT) and bovine (strains AK-87, OCP and ZA-10T) rumen contents. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, the methanogen strains were found to belong to the order Methanobacteriales in the genus Methanobrevibacter. Strains ZA-10T and KM1H5-1PT gained energy for growth by the reduction of CO2 to CH4 using H2 or formate exclusively as electron donors. Increasing formate concentrations to 220 mM in batch cultures increased th
