Genetic variability in Acidithiobacillus spp. – a working horse of environmental biotechnologies
Nova Biotechnologica et Chimica, 2018 The genus Acidithiobacillus comprises 7 species of Gram-negative obligatory acidophilic chemolithotrophic bacteria that derive energy mainly from the oxidation of reduced sulphur compounds. Four of the species also catalyse the dissimilatory oxidation of
