Taxonomy

Description
A Chloroflexota bacterium represented a high-quality metagenome-assembled genome (MAG), recovered from desert soils from the Mackay Glacier region, Antarctica. The bacterium is predicted to be an atmospheric hydrogen oxidizer using H2 (via a high-affinity group 1h [NiFe]-hydrogenase) from air as a key energy source for survival in oligotrophic desert soils. The species is proposed to serve as the nomenclatural type for the Edaphomicrobium genus, and honors Peter H. Janssen, for his pioneering isolation-based studies that first described the class lineage of this bacterium (Ellin6529, later named as Limnocylindria).
