Microbiomes and Planctomycete diversity in large-scale aquaria habitats
In commercial large-scale aquaria, controlling levels of nitrogenous compounds is essential for macrofauna health. Naturally occurring bacteria are capable of transforming toxic nitrogen species into their more benign counterparts and play important roles in maintaining aquaria health.

Genome sequence of Victivallis vadensis ATCC BAA-548, an anaerobic bacterium from the phylum Lentisphaerae, isolated from the human gastrointestinal tract [PDF]
Victivallis vadensis ATCC BAA-548 represents the first cultured representative from the novel phylum Lentisphaerae, a deep-branching bacterial lineage. Few cultured bacteria from this phylum are known, and V.

Specificities and commonalities of the Planctomycetes plasmidome
ABSTRACTAlthough plasmids play a crucial role in antibiotic resistance and contemporary biotechnology, our comprehension of their natural ecological dynamics remains restricted to a few bacterial groups. Planctomycetes is a bacterial phylum with unusual molecular and cellular biology for which little is known about its plasmidome.

Unravelling the active microbial community in a thermophilic anaerobic digester-microbial electrolysis cell coupled system under different conditions [PDF]
Thermophilic anaerobic digestion (AD) of pig slurry coupled to a microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) with a recirculation loop was studied at lab-scale as a strategy to increase AD stability when submitted to organic and nitrogen overloads.

Epiphytic bacterial community composition on two common submerged macrophytes in brackish water and freshwater [PDF]
Background Plants and their heterotrophic bacterial biofilm communities possibly strongly interact, especially in aquatic systems. We aimed to ascertain whether different macrophytes or their habitats determine bacterial community composition.

Complete genome sequence of Isosphaera pallida type strain (IS1B). [PDF]
Isosphaera pallida (ex Woronichin 1927) Giovannoni et al. 1995 is the type species of the genus Isosphaera. The species is of interest because it was the first heterotrophic bacterium known to be phototactic, and it occupies an isolated phylogenetic ...

Unbiased taxonomic annotation of metagenomic samples [PDF]
The classification of reads from a metagenomic sample using a reference taxonomy is usually based on first mapping the reads to the reference sequences and then classifying each read at a node under the lowest common ancestor of the candidate sequences ...
