RHODOVULUM PHAEOLACUS

Class: Alpha Proteobacteria
Genus: Rhodovulum
Species: Rhodovulum phaeolacus
Description: Rhodovulum phaeolacus,a phototrophic alphaproteobacterium isolated from a brown pond.Two strains of oval-rod shaped, Gram-negative, phototrophic, purple non-sulfur bacteria designated JA580(T) and JA595 were isolated from a sediment sample collected from a brown pond. Strain JA580(T) was designated as the type strain, while strain JA595 as an additional strain has similar characteristics to the type strain. Strain JA580(T) was non-motile and grew photoheterotrophically with a number of organic compounds serving as carbon source/electron donor.
