Thermoanaerobacterium aotearoense explained

Thermoanaerobacterium aotearoense is a slightly acidophilic, anaerobic, thermophile first isolated from hot springs in New Zealand, hence its name. It is Gram-negative, peritrichously flagellated, rod-shaped forming oval terminal endospores. Strain JW/SL-NZ613^T (= DSM 10170) is its type strain.^[1] Its genome has been sequenced.^[2]
