Nomenclatural type
NCBI Assembly: GCA_003568775.1 Ts
Description
Obligate ectosymbiont associated with the host Zestosphaera tikiterensis. Cells are coccoid, ~200 nm in diameter, with lophotrichous archaeal flagella. Best growth observed from 80-85°C. Cultivated under anaerobic conditions at pH 6.0. Isolated in co-culture with its host from "Cooking Pots" hot spring, Tikitere, New Zealand. The type material is strain Ncl-1, with a genome sequence available under NCBI WGS accession MWMI00000000 and Genbank assembly accession GCA_003568775.1. The genome consists of 575,637 bp in 9 contigs, with a G+C content of 32.2%.
