Methanobrevibacter ruminantium M1

Taxonomy
Names	Methanobrevibacter ruminantium M1
Accession numbers	NC_013790
Background	Methanobrevibacter ruminantium (strain ATCC 35063 / DSM 1093 / JCM 13430 / M1) is a dominant ruminant, acetate-utilizer, methanogenic archaeon isolated from a bovine rumen. It can grow with H2 plus CO2 and formate. It can be used as an indicator of fecal pollution from domesticated ruminants in environmental water samples. (Adapted from PMID: 20126622). (HAMAP: METRM)
