Difference between photosynthetic bacteria and cyanobacteria
The main differences between photosynthetic bacteria, namely Rhodosporium and cyanobacteria are as follows:

First of all, photosynthesis is different

1, Rhodotorula sp. is an anaerobic organism, which does not release oxygen in the reaction process and carries out original photosynthetic phosphorylation.

2. Cyanobacteria: oxygen-producing photosynthesis.

Second, the nature is different.

1, Rhodosporium: Rhodosporium belongs to anaerobic organisms.

2. Cyanobacteria: Cyanobacteria belong to oxygen-producing photosynthetic bacteria.

Third, the value is different.

1, Rhodosporium: According to the characteristics of Rhodosporium, it has been used to purify high-concentration organic wastewater in environmental protection work to achieve the purpose of protecting the environment and eliminating pollution.

2. Cyanobacteria: Cyanobacteria are classified as Cyanophyta in botany and phycology. Because the cell structure is simple, there are no nuclear membranes and nucleoli, only pseudonuclei, chlorophyll and phycocyanin, and no chloroplasts. Therefore, it belongs to cyanobacteria in monera kingdom, and the bacteria in this phylum are called cyanobacteria. It is of great significance to the study of biological evolution, photosynthetic mechanism and the origin of life.
