| reclassification of the sulfate- and nitrate-reducing bacterium desulfovibrio vulgaris subsp. oxamicus as desulfovibrio oxamicus sp. nov., comb. nov. | desulfovibrio vulgaris subsp. oxamicus (type strain, dsm 1925(t)) was found to use nitrate as a terminal electron acceptor, the latter being reduced to ammonium. phylogenetic studies indicated that strain dsm 1925(t) was distantly related to the type strain of desulfovibrio vulgaris (95.4 % similarity of the small-subunit rrna gene) and had as its closest phylogenetic relatives two other nitrate- and sulfate-reducing bacteria, namely desulfovibrio termitidis (99.4 % similarity) and desulfovibrio ... | 2006 | 16825618 |
