Abstract
Photoferrotrophs drove primary production in the Earth's early oceans and are still abundant in modern environments. We present a draft genome sequence of a model photoferrotroph, Rhodovulum iodosum UT/N1. By comparing it with its close relative Rhodovulum robiginosum DSM 12329, we identify that these cultures were likely swapped during their history.
