Etymology

edit

The name Agrococcus derives from:
Greek noun agros, field or soil; Neo-Latin masculine gender noun coccus (from Greek masculine gender noun kokkos, grain, seed), coccus; Neo-Latin masculine gender noun Agrococcus a coccus from soil.[3]

A group at the University of British Columbia completed the first draft genome of a bacterium from the genus Agrococcus, which was isolated from modern microbialites found within Pavilion Lake, BC.[4]
