Draft genome sequences of two Campylobacterales (Sulfurospirillum sp. strain SCADC and Sulfuricurvum sp. strain MLSB [Mildred Lake Settling Basin]) were obtained by taxonomic binning of metagenomes originating from an oil sands tailings pond. Both genomes contain soxABXYZ genes involved in sulfur oxidation, highlighting their potential roles in sulfur cycling in oil sands tailings ponds.
通过对来自油砂尾矿池的宏基因组进行分类分箱,获得了两种弯曲杆菌目细菌(硫螺旋菌属菌株SCADC和硫化弯曲菌属菌株MLSB [米尔德里德湖沉降池])的基因组草图序列。两个基因组都包含参与硫氧化的soxABXYZ基因,突出了它们在油砂尾矿池中硫循环中的潜在作用。
