Nice photo of a British Columbia lake, but Rhodobacter capsulatus (formerly Rhodopseudomonas capsulata) strain B10 was isolated in St. Louis, USA, according to:
Marrs, B. : Genetic recombination in Rhodopseudomonas capsulata. Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. (Wash.) 71, 971-973 (1974)
Weaver, P. F., Wall, J. D., Gest, H.: Characterization of Rhodopseudomonas capsulata. Arch. Microbiol. 105, 207-216 (1975)
Agreed, the lake is Mahoney Lake Ecological Reserve that we visited on your recommendation. Although not the site of B10 isolation it is still a rich source of Rhodobacter and the legend now reflects this.
