Abstract excerpt
Comparative analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences, DNA-DNA hybridization data and phenotypic properties revealed that 'Sulfobacillus thermosulfidooxidans subsp. thermotolerans' strain K1 is not a member of the genus Sulfobacillus. Phylogenetically, strain K1 is closely related to unclassified strains of the genus Alicyclobacillus: the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain K1 is similar to that of Alicyclobacillus sp....
