Research direction

Read the four genus entries in the linked spreadsheet and compare them with the corresponding Bergey's Manual text, starting with the Oceanobacillus and Streptobacillus clues in the issue. Determine whether each genus is aerobic, anaerobic, or facultatively anaerobic, then update the affected annotations and verify the pipeline no longer produces a 0.5/0.5 split for them. The issue does not name the repository files or tests to use.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

curation

Four genus rows from the Bergey's Manual scrape carry aerobic and anaerobic both with Frequency always, which the pipeline turns into a 0.5/0.5 split. Bergey's text will say which it is; most likely facultatively anaerobic, or one of the two.

  • Halostella
  • Oceanobacillus (most species are facultatively anaerobic)
  • Salinisphaera
  • Streptobacillus (facultatively anaerobic)

Related: #259 (Bacillus). Eleven more genera have aerobic + facultatively anaerobic splits from the same source; those are defensible and can stay.
