Clostridium vincentii is an obligate anaerobic, saccharophilic, psychrophilic, Gram-positive, motile, and rod-shaped bacterium. It was isolated from a pond sediment of the McMurdo Ice Shelf, Antarctica. C. vincentii produces acetate and formate as main fermentation products. The draft genome consist...
