Magnetospirillum marine QH-2
Marine Magnetospira sp. QH-2 strain was isolated from the China Sea. With the presence of magnetosomes, QH-2 cells are able to orient themselves along magnetic field lines. Comparative genome analysis with freshwater magnetospirilla and other relative genomes will provide new insights into the genome feature, adaptation and evolution of magnetotactic bacteria.
