Abstract: | The rumen bacterium Eadie's Oval was examined by means of cell wall analysis and biochemical tests with a view to determine its taxonomic position.The purified cell walls contained components consistent with the organism being a Gram-negative bacterium, and despite its large size no abnormal cell wall constituents were found. The biochemical tests indicate that Eadie's Oval is not a member of a previously described family. The name Magnoovum gen. nov. eadii sp. nov. is proposed.Abbreviations Used EO Eadie's Oval - ARF autoclaved rumen fluid (supernatant after centrifuging for 5 min at 1000 g) - GC ratio of Guanine and cytosine to Adenine and Thymine in DNA |
