  1. Strains: 1, IMCC35004T; 2, IMCC35005T; 3, Desulfopila aestuarii DSM 18488T; 4, Desulfotalea psychrophila DSM 12343T. All the data are from this study. −, Not detected; Tr, traces (< 1.0%). Major fatty acids (> 10%) are shown in bold type.
  2. aSummed features represent groups of two or three fatty acids which could not be separated using gas chromatography with the MIDI system. Summed feature 3 comprises C16:1 ω7c and/or C16:1 ω6c; Summed feature 4 comprises anteiso-C17:1 B and/or iso-C17:1 I; Summed feature 5 comprises C18:2 ω6,9c and/or anteiso-C18:0; Summed feature 8 comprises C18:1 ω7c and/or C18:1 ω6c; Summed feature 9 comprises 10-methyl C16:0 and/or iso-C17:1 ω9c.
