Rubrobacter is a genus of Actinobacteria, given its own subclass (Rubrobacteridae).[2] It is radiotolerant and may rival Deinococcus radiodurans in this regard.[3]

Phylogeny

The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN) [4] and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI)[5] and the phylogeny is based on 16S rRNA-based LTP release 111 by 'The All-Species Living Tree' Project [6]
