From: Taxonomy and evolution of bacteriochlorophyll a-containing members of the OM60/NOR5 clade of marine gammaproteobacteria: description of Luminiphilus syltensis gen. nov., sp. nov., reclassification of Haliea rubra as Pseudohaliea rubra gen. nov., comb. nov., and emendation of Chromatocurvus halotolerans

Figure 2

Spectral characteristics of the photosynthetic apparatus in Luminiphilus syltensis Ivo14Tand Pseudohaliea (= Haliea ) rubra DSM 19751T. Cells of Luminiphilus syltensis Ivo14T (red line) were grown in SYMHC medium in the dark under air atmosphere, while Pseudohaliea rubra DSM 19751T (green line) was cultured in SYPHC medium in the light. The position of distinct peaks of the spectra is indicated. A.U., arbitrary units of absorbance. A. Whole-cells absorption spectra. B. Spectra of acetone/methanol extracts showing the characteristic peaks of BChl a and spirilloxanthin.
