Abstract Me.tha.no.bre.vi.bac'ter. M.L. neut. n. methanum methane; L. masc. adj. brevis short; M.L. masc. n. bacter equivalent of Gr. neut. n. bakterion rod, staff; M.L. masc. n. Methanobrevibacter short methane (‐producing) rod. Oval rods or cocci to short rods , usually occurring in pairs or chains; about 0.5–0.7 µm in width and 0.8–1.4 µm in length. Rarely, filaments are formed. Nonsporing, Gram‐positive. Cell walls are composed of pseudomurein . Nonmotile. Strict anaerobes. Optimum temperature, 37–40°C; maximum, ~45°C; minimum, ~30°C. The mol % G + C of the DNA is : 27.5–31.6. Type species : Methanobrevibacter ruminantium (Smith and Hungate 1958) Balch and Wolfe 1981, 216 (Effective publication: Balch and Wolfe in Balch, Fox, Magrum, Woese and Wolfe, 1979, 284) ( Methanobacterium ruminantium Smith and Hungate 1958, 717). Taxonomic and Nomenclature Notes According to the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN), the taxonomic status of the genus Methanobrevibacter is: correct name (last update, February 2025) * . LPSN classification: Archaea / Methanobacteriati / Methanobacteriota / Methanobacteria / Methanobacteriales / Methanobacteriaceae / Methanobrevibacter The genus Methanobrevibacter can also be recovered in the Genome Taxonomy Database (GTDB) as g__Methanobrevibacter (version v220) ** .

Abstract Phlo.mo.bac.ter. Gr. n. phlomos bark; Gr. n. bakterion a small rod; M.L. neut. Phlomobacter rod in the bark. Filamentous bacteria occurring in the sieve tubes of phloem tissue of plants (Figures 1 and 2). The original description is from infected strawberry plants ( Fragaria × ananassa ) showing leaf marginal chlorosis and stunting in France (Nourrisseau et al., 1993). Like most other phloem‐restricted bacteria, Candidatus Phlomobacter fragariae has resisted in vitro cultivation. The mol % G + C of the DNA is : not determined. Type species : Candidatus Phlomobacter fragariae Zreik, Bové and Garnier 1998, 260. Taxonomic and Nomenclature Notes According to the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN), the taxonomic status of the genus Candidatus Phlomobacter is: misspelling (and no standing) (last update, February 2025) * .
