+, Growth; −, no growth; parentheses indicate aerobic growth; no parenthesis indicates that aerobic growth on the substrate was not tested.
b
20 mM lactate was used as the electron donor. TEA, terminal electron acceptor; DMSO, dimethyl sulfoxide.
c
5 mM arsenate was used as the terminal electron acceptor.
