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

Soil Biodiversity of Eucalyptus saligna: Insights Into Bacterial and Nematode Communities. [PDF]
Environ Microbiol RepThis exploratory study characterises bacterial and nematode assemblages in the rhizosphere of Eucalyptus saligna plantations in Limpopo, South Africa. High‐throughput sequencing, nematode surveys and multivariate analyses reveal co‐occurrence patterns of soil biota with soil properties, providing a baseline assessment of belowground biodiversity and ...

On the maverick Planctomycetes [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2018 Planctomycetes are ubiquitous, environmentally and biotechnologically important bacteria that are key players in global carbon and nitrogen cycles. Ever since their first discovery in the 1920s they seemed to blur the prokaryote /eukaryote dichotomy. After initially being described as fungi and reclassified as bacteria later, they were still thought to

Planctomycetes of the Genus Singulisphaera Possess Chitinolytic Capabilities
MicroorganismsPlanctomycetes of the genus Singulisphaera are common inhabitants of soils and peatlands. Although described members of this genus are characterized as possessing hydrolytic capabilities, the ability to degrade chitin has not yet been reported for these ...

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,

Hi-C Links Reveal Viral Activity and Infection Within the Free-Living Microbial Community of a Secondary Chlorophyll Maximum in the Eastern Tropical North Pacific. [PDF]
Environ MicrobiolHi‐C sequencing was used to link viral sequences with microbial metagenome assembled genomes in the largely uncultivated waters of an oxygen‐deficient zone's secondary chlorophyll maximum within the Eastern Tropical North Pacific Ocean. ABSTRACT Oxygen‐deficient zones (ODZs) influence global nitrogen cycling as key sites for the removal of bioavailable

Impact of Salinity on the Gastrointestinal Bacterial Community of Theodoxus fluviatilis
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Differences in salinity are boundaries that act as barriers for the dispersal of most aquatic organisms. This creates distinctive biota in freshwater and brackish water (mesohaline) environments.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012 Recently, several characters that are absent from most bacteria, but which are found in many eukaryotes or archaea, have been identified within the bacterial Planctomycetes-Verrucomicrobia-Chlamydiae (PVC) superphylum.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012 The nucleoid of the planctomycete Gemmata obscuriglobus is unique within the Bacteria in being both highly condensed and enclosed by a double-membrane nuclear envelope, seemingly analogous to those of the nucleus of eukaryotes.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 It is widely assumed that there is a clear distinction between eukaryotes, with cell nuclei, and prokaryotes, which lack nuclei. This suggests the evolution of nuclear compartmentation is a singular event.
