“…It is frequently observed that Planctomycetes are highly abundant in biofilms on nutrient-rich marine surfaces (Bengtsson and Øvreås 2010;Kohn et al 2019b). This is astonishing when considering their moderate growth rates compared to faster-growing competitors in this ecological niche (Frank et al 2014;Wiegand et al 2018).…”

Planctomycetes is a fascinating phylum of mostly aquatic bacteria, not only due to the environmental importance in global carbon and nitrogen cycles, but also because of a unique cell biology. Their lifestyle and metabolic capabilities are not well explored, which motivated us to study the role of Planctomycetes in biofilms on marine biotic surfaces. Here, we describe the novel strain Pan54 T which was isolated from algae in a hydrothermal area close to the volcanic island Panarea in the Tyrrhenian Sea, north of Sicily in Italy. The strain grew best at pH 9.0 and 26°C and showed typical characteristics of planctomycetal bacteria, e.g. division by polar budding, formation of aggregates and presence of stalks and crateriform structures. Phylogenetically, the strain belongs to the genus Rubinisphaera. Our analysis suggests that Pan54 T represents a novel species of this genus, for which we propose the name Rubinisphaera italica sp. nov. We suggest Pan54 T (= DSM 29369 = LMG 29789) as the type strain of the novel species.

“…The ability of R. ulvae to grow in artificial medium proves that it is not obligately associated with Ulva and hence could be a free-living organism like strain JC651 T . Though it is well known that many planctomycetes are associated with either algae [31] or sponges [32], their relationship with their host remains to be established. The obligate requirement for salt by strain JC651 T and R. ulvae indicate their adaptability to marine habitats.…”

“…16S rRNA gene-based phylogeny was computed for Q31a T , the type strains of all described planctomycetal species (assessed in January 2020) and all isolates recently described (Boersma et al 2019;Kallscheuer et al 2019aKallscheuer et al , b, d, 2020Kohn et al 2019;Peeters et al 2020;Rensink et al 2020). The 16S rRNA gene sequences were aligned with SINA (Pruesse et al 2012) and the phylogenetic inference was calculated with RAxML (Stamatakis 2014) with a maximum likelihood approach with 1000 bootstraps, nucleotide substitution model GTR, gamma distributed rate variation and estimation of proportion of invariable sites (GTRGAMMAI option).…”

A novel planctomycetal strain, designated Q31a T , was isolated from a jellyfish at the shore of the island Helgoland in the North Sea. The strain forms lucid white colonies on solid medium and displays typical characteristics of planctomycetal strains, such as division by budding, formation of rosettes, presence of crateriform structures, extracellular matrix or fibre and a holdfast structure. Q31a T is mesophilic (temperature optimum 27°C), neutrophilic (pH optimum 7.5), aerobic and heterotrophic. A maximal growth rate of 0.017 h-1 (generation time of 41 h) was observed. Q31a T has a genome size of 8.44 Mb and a G ? C content of 55.3%. Phylogenetically, the strain represents a novel genus and species in the recently introduced family Pirellulaceae, order Pirellulales, class Planctomycetia. We propose the name Aureliella helgolandensis gen. nov., sp. nov. for the novel species, represented by Q31a T (= DSM 103537 T = LMG 29700 T) as the type strain.
