Bryocella elongata is a bacterium, a type species of genus Bryocella. Cells are Gram-negative, non-motile pink-pigmented rods that multiply by normal cell division and form rosettes.[1] The type strain is SN10(T).[2][3][4][5] B. elongata was first isolated in 2011 from a methanotrophic enrichment culture.[6]
According to analysis of 16S rRNA sequence,[7] Bryocella elongata is a member of subdivision 1 of the phylum Acidobacteriota.[1] Bryocella elongata SN10(T) forms a separate lineage within subdivision 1 of the Acidobacteriota and displays 94.0–95.4% 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequence similarity to members of the genera Edaphobacter and Granulicella, 93.0–93.7% similarity to members of the Terriglobus and 92.2–92.3% similarity to the type strains of Telmatobacter bradus and Acidobacterium capsulatum.[1]
