The Chlorobi share a common root with Bacteroidetes in both of the major reference trees. At present, the phylum contains a single class, order, and family. Gram-negative, spherical, ovoid, straight, or curved rod-shaped Bacteria. Strictly anaerobic, obligately phototrophic. Cells grow preferentially by photoassimilation of simple organic compounds. Some species may utilize sulfide or thiosulfate as an electron donor for CO2 accumulation. Sulfur globules accumulate on the outside of the cells when grown in the presence of sulfide and light, and sulfur is rarely oxidized further to sulfate. Ammonia and dinitrogen used as the nitrogen source. Most genera require one or more growth factors; the most common are biotin, thiamine, niacin, and p-aminobenzoic acid.
