Abstract

sp. nov. strain ATCC 49587 (T = type strain) was isolated from chicken yard waste for its ability to produce ethanol from synthesis gas. This gram-positive, motile, sporeforming rod’s metabolism was primarily acetogenic. C. grew with carbon monoxide, hydrogen and carbon dioxide, ethanol, pyruvate, arabinose, xylose, fructose, or glucose. Methanol, ferulic acid, lactate, galactose, and mannose did not support growth. The G+C content was 22 to 23 moI%. is the first acetogen in clostridial 23S rRNA homology group I.
