Taxonomy

Description
Bdellonasus magneticus cells are vibrioid with an approximative length and width of 1.45 µm and 0.40 µm, respectively. They produce a single polar ⁓53.2 nm thick flagellum and are characterized by the presence of a 200-300 nm-long a sharp, asymmetrical and elongated anterior pole, bottlenose-shaped. Cells are magnetotactic and produce a single chain of approximately 5 bullet-shaped magnetite particles ~70 nm long. The genome of this species possesses a gene coding for an aerobic carbon monoxide dehydrogenase, a formate dehydrogenase, and genes involved in aerobic respiration as well as in possible iron reduction. They are heterotrophs and have a Kil system involved in predation.
