Some Giant Sulphur Bacteria are so large as to be visible to the naked eye. Nonetheless, they
have been very difficult to cultivate and classify. Why?
Solution
Cultivate
Grow very slowly. Metabolism is based on lithotrophic utilization of sulphide oxidation coupled
to nitrate reduction which is gives poor yields. In natural environments they grow in gradients
where one end of filament is sulphide rich, the other end nitrate rich. Difficult to simulate in the
lab.
Classify
Morphology has been used, but this is not linked to phylogeny. 16S rRNA hard to amplify due to
containing an intron
