== Introduction ==
'''''Saccharofermentans'' sp. AE2021'''

''Saccharofermentans'' sp. AE2021(DSM 122476) was isolated from the plant-adherent fraction of bovine rumen contents in NZ [1, cow E]. AE2021 has not been phenotypically characterized. ''Saccharofermentans'' is one of the 14 genera regarded as part of the rumen core microbiome [2], and another ''Saccharofermentans'' strain (R-25) contributes to fibre digestion in the rumen with production of D-lactate [3].

The draft genome for AE3010 (3,083,950 bp) was generated through the Hungate1000 project with JGI [4].

NCBI: ''Ruminococcaceae'' bacterium.

GTDB: ''Saccharofermentans'' sp900176545.

Risk group: 1.
