Bringing Planctomycetes into pure culture [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012 Planctomycetes have been known since the description of Planctomyces bekefii by Gimesi at the beginning of the twentieth century (1924), although the first axenic cultures were only obtained in the 1970s.

The Microbiome of Posidonia oceanica Seagrass Leaves Can Be Dominated by Planctomycetes
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Seagrass meadows are ubiquitous, fragile and endangered marine habitats, which serve as fish breeding grounds, stabilize ocean floor substrates, retain nutrients and serve as important carbon sinks, counteracting climate change. In the Mediterranean Sea,

Kolteria novifilia, a novel planctomycetotal strain from the volcanic habitat of Panarea divides by unusual lateral budding [PDF]
Journal of BacteriologyMembers of the phylum Planctomycetota are ubiquitous bacteria that play important roles in the global carbon and nitrogen cycle. In this study, we sampled the shallow-sea hydrothermal vent system close to Panarea Island, Italy, and analyzed the bacterial

Novel tools for genomic modification and heterologous gene expression in the phylum Planctomycetota [PDF]
Applied Microbiology and BiotechnologyMembers of the phylum Planctomycetota possess a plethora of intriguing and hitherto underexplored features including an enlarged periplasmic space, asymmetric cell division (“budding”), and a mostly undiscovered small molecule portfolio. Due to the large
