Thermophilic Dehalococcoidia With Unusual Traits Shed Light on an Unexpected Past [PDF]

ISME Journal, 2023
Abstract Although the phylum Chloroflexota is ubiquitous, its biology and evolution are poorly understood due to limited cultivability. Here, we isolated two motile, thermophilic bacteria from hot spring sediments belonging to the genus Tepidiforma and class Dehalococcoidia within the phylum Chloroflexota.

Microbiome dynamics of a polychlorobiphenyl (PCB) historically contaminated marine sediment under conditions promoting reductive dechlorination

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
The toxicity of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) can be efficiently reduced in contaminated marine sediments through the reductive dechlorination process lead by anaerobic organohalide bacteria.

The chromosomal genome sequence of the sponge, Corticium candelabrum Schmidt, 1862 and its associated microbial metagenome sequences [version 1; peer review: 3 approved]

Wellcome Open Research
We present a genome assembly from a specimen of Corticium candelabrum (sponge; Porifera; Homoscleromorpha; Homosclerophorida; Plakinidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 185.49 megabases.

Organic Matter Type Defines the Composition of Active Microbial Communities Originating From Anoxic Baltic Sea Sediments

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Carbon cycling in anoxic marine sediments is dependent on uncultured microbial communities. Niches of heterotrophic microorganisms are defined by organic matter (OM) type and the different phases in OM degradation.

Single-Cell Genome and Group-Specific dsrAB Sequencing Implicate Marine Members of the Class Dehalococcoidia (Phylum Chloroflexi) in Sulfur Cycling [PDF]

mBio, 2016
The marine subsurface sediment biosphere is widely inhabited by bacteria affiliated with the class Dehalococcoidia (DEH), phylum Chloroflexi, and yet little is known regarding their metabolisms. In this report, genomic content from a single DEH cell (DEH-

Distribution Patterns and Diversity of Sedimental Microbial Communities in the Tianxiu Hydrothermal Field of Carlsberg Ridge

Oceans
Hydrothermal vents, widely occurring along middle-ocean ridges and volcanic arcs, have been well-studied in vent-associated microbiology, mineralogy, and geochemistry. However, there are rarely investigations regarding the detailed microbial community in
