Taxonomy

Description
Curved rods with slightly tapered ends, 0.34 by 1.6 μm in size, occurring singly or in pairs. Nonmotile. Metabolizes H2 and CO2, yielding CH4 as the sole product. Optimum temperature is 30 °C (range10–30 °C). Optimum pH is 7.1–7.2 (range 6.5–8.5). Complex nutritional supplements, e.g., 40% (v/v) clarified rumen fluid and nutrient broth (Difco) are required for growth ( as in Miller, 2015). The G+C content of the type genome is 25.7 mol%, and the genome size is 2.41 Mbp.
