'''''Acidisoma''''' is a genus in the phylum Pseudomonadota (Bacteria). It contains two species, ''Acidisoma tundrae'' and ''Acidisoma sibiricum'', both two acidophilic (pH 3.0–7.6) and psychrotolerant (2–30 °C) bacteria with poly-β-hydroxybutyrate granules, isolated from acidic Sphagnum-dominated tundra and Siberian wetlands in Russia.<ref name=Belova2009>{{cite journal | last1 = Belova | first1 = S.E. | last2 = Pankratov | first2 = T.A. | last3 = Detkova | first3 = E.N. | last4 = Kaparullina | first4 = E.N. | last5 = Dedysh | first5 = S.N. | year = 2009 | title = Acidisoma tundrae gen. nov., sp. nov. and Acidisoma sibiricum sp. nov., two acidophilic, psychrotolerant members of the Alphaproteobacteria from acidic northern wetlands | journal = International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology| volume = 59 | issue = 9| pages = 2283–2290 | doi = 10.1099/ijs.0.009209-0 | pmid = 19620354 | doi-access = free }}</ref>
