Popis: Filamentous iron oxides accumulating bacteria Sphaerotilus natans subsp. natans and S. natans subsp. sulfidivorans were described as subspecies based on 99.7% identity of their 16S rRNA sequences, in spite of important physiological difference. The ANI between their genomes was 94.7%, which indicate their assignment to different species. S. natans subsp. sulfidivorans and S. montanus possess genes for a complete SOX system, while S. natans subsp. natans encode only SoxYZ. There are genes for the Calvin cycle in the genomes of S. hippei DSM 566
