A new thermophilic, xylanolytic, strictly anaerobic, rod-shaped bacterium, strain SEBR 7054T, was isolated from an African oil-producing well. Based on the presence of an outer sheath (toga) and 16S rRNA sequence analysis data, this organism was identified as a member of the genus Thermotoga. Strain SEBR 7054T possessed lateral flagella, had a G + C content of 50 mol%, produced traces of ethanol from glucose but no lactate, and grew optimally in the presence of 0 to 0.2% NaCl at 70 degrees C. Its phenotypic and phylogenetic characteristics clearly differed from those reported for the five previously validly described Thermotoga species. Therefore, we propose that strain SEBR 7054T is a member of a new species of the genus Thermotoga, Thermotoga hypogea sp. nov. The type strain of T. hypogea is SEBR 7054 (= DSM 11164).
从一口非洲产油井中分离出了一种新的嗜热、能分解木聚糖、严格厌氧的杆状细菌，菌株SEBR 7054T。基于其存在外鞘（菌套）以及16S rRNA序列分析数据，该生物体被鉴定为嗜热栖热菌属的一员。菌株SEBR 7054T具有侧生鞭毛，G + C含量为50摩尔%，能从葡萄糖产生微量乙醇但不产生乳酸，并且在70℃、0至0.2% NaCl存在的条件下生长最佳。其表型和系统发育特征明显不同于之前五个已有效描述的嗜热栖热菌种所报道的特征。因此，我们提议菌株SEBR 7054T是嗜热栖热菌属一个新物种——地下嗜热栖热菌（Thermotoga hypogea sp. nov.）的成员。地下嗜热栖热菌的模式菌株是SEBR 7054（= DSM 11164）。
