Spirosoma utsteinense sp. nov. isolated from Antarctic ice-free soils from the Utsteinen region, East Antarctica
Between 2014 and 2016, 16 Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped and yellow-orange pigmented bacteria were isolated from exposed soils from the Utsteinen region, Sør Rondane Mountains, East Antarctica. Analysis of their 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the strains form a separate cluster in t...
