Introduction
Butyrivibrio hungatei MB2003
Butyrivibrio hungatei MB2003 (DSM 120820) was isolated from the plant-adherent fraction of bovine rumen contents in NZ [1, cow B, 2]. It ferments a range of carbohydrates but has a smaller genome and a more limited repertoire of carbohydrate active enzymes than other Butyrivibrio species (81 glycosyl hydrolases, 86 glycosyl transferases, 3 polysaccharide lyases, 8 carbohydrate esterases) [3, 4].
The MB2003 genome (3,386,314 bp) consists of a chromosome (3,143,784 bp) and three plasmids (144,470 bp, 91,776 bp and 6,284 bp) [5].
