Ferrovum myxofaciens strain:P3G Genome sequencing and assembly. Ferrovum myxofaciens strain:P3G

"Ferrovum myxofaciens" is an obligately aerobic, chemolitho-autotrophic and psychrotolerant acidophile that has been demonstrated to grow only by oxidizing ferrous iron. The P3G strain was isolated from a stream draining an abandoned copper mine in Wales where it formed macroscopic acid streamers. F. myxofaciens P3G and related clone sequences form a monophyletic group within the Betaproteobacteria distantly related to classified orders.
