Acidicapsa ligni is a Gram-negative, short rods and non-motile bacterium from the genus of Acidicapsa which has been isolated from decaying wood from a broadleaf forest in Netherlands. [1] [3] [4]

A. ligni is an anicidophilic bacterium, thriving in the acidic environmental conditions created by the fungal decay of wood. With a pH growth range of 3.5-6.4 and an optimum around pH 4.0-4.5.it is well-adapted to the low pH levels found in rotting wood ecosystems. This bacterium is an aerobic chemoheterotroph, obtaining its energy and carbon from the breakdown of organic compounds. [5]
