Ammoniphilus

Ammoniphilus is a Gram-variable, strictly aerobic, rod-shaped, haloalkalitolerant spore-forming, obligately oxalotrophic and motile bacterial genus from the family of Paenibacillaceae with peritrichous flagella.[1][2][3][4][5] In the cell wall of Ammoniphilus is meso-diaminopimelic acid.[5]
