Abstract excerpt
Autotrophic bacteria utilizing Fe(II) as their energy and electron sources for growth affect multiple biogeochemical cycles. Some chemoheterotrophic bacteria have also been considered to exhibit an Fe(II) oxidation phenotype. For example, several Marinobacter strains have been reported to oxidize Fe(II) based on formation of oxidized iron bands in semi-solid gradient tubes that produce opposing concentration...
