Abstract

Various extremely thermophilic archaebacteria exhibit optimum growth at above 80°C. Pyrodictium is the most thermophilic of these organisms, growing at temperatures of up to U 0 ° C and exhibiting optimum growth at about 105°C. All of these organisms grow by diverse types of anaerobic and aerobic metabolism.
