expand / minimize
The family Rhodobiaceae was circumscribed for this volume on the basis of phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA sequences; the family contains Rhodobium (type genus). Grow phototrophically in the light and chemotrophically in the dark. Photosynthetic membranes present as lamellar stacks. Require NaCl for growth.
