Multilocus sequence analysis of Thermoanaerobacter isolates reveals recombining but differentiated subpopulations from geothermal springs of the Uzon Caldera, Kamchatka, Russia
Abstract:Thermal environments have island-like characteristics and provide a unique opportunity to study population structure and diversity patterns of microbial taxa inhabiting these sites. Strains having ≥98% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to the obligately anaerobic Firmicutes Thermoanaerobact...
