 Abstract

Thi.o.ha.lo.mo.nad.a.ce’ae N.L. fem. n. Thiohalomonas, the type genus of the family, -aceae ending to denote a family; N.L. fem. pl. n. Thiohalomonadaceae the Thiohalomonas family. The family Thiohalomonadaceae accommodates facultatively anaerobic, chemolithoautotrophic sulfur-oxidizing bacteria. They utilize reduced sulfur compounds as the energy source and either oxygen or NOx as the electron acceptors. CO2 is assimilated via the Calvin–Benson–Bassham cycle. The family
is a member of the order Thiohalomonadales in the Gammaproteobacteria and consists of the genera Thiohalomonas and Sulfurivermis. The family-level status was established by phylogenomic analysis based on 120 single-copy conserved protein markers. DNA G + C content (mol%): 58–65 (Tm of 3 species).Type genus: Thiohalomonas Sorokin et al. 2007VP.
