Clostridium stercorarium, a new species of anaerobic, sporeforming, thermophilic, saccharoclastic, cellulolytic bacteria, is described. The colonies produced by these bacteria on cellobiose agar are 3 to 6 mm in diameter, cream colored, glossy, and umbonate with fiat, entire margins. Single cells are straight rods 0.7 to 0.8 by 2.7 to 7.7 µm, with...

... The genus Thermoclostridium, which is also more abundant in the control treatment, includes two known anaerobic species, T. caenicola and T. stercorarium. Their cellulolytic potential is widely recognised and they have been observed in several composting sites (Madden, 1983;Nissilä et al., 2011), but no studies have mentioned a propensity of these species to be sensitive to glyphosate. Finally, ASVs identified as the genera Pseudomonas and Streptomyces were also more abundant in the control than in the glyphosate treatment. ...
