AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
A novel member of the phylum was isolated from an oilsands tailings pond in Alberta, Canada. Cells of isolate NVT are Gram-negative, strictly aerobic, non-pigmented, non-motile cocci to diplococci 0.5-1.0 µm in diameter. The bacterium is neutrophilic (optimum pH 6.0-8.0) but alkalitolerant, capable of growth between pH 5.5 and 11.0. The temperature range for growth is 15-40 °C (optimum 25-37 °C). Carbon and energy sources include sugars and organic acids. Nitrogen sources include nitrate, urea, l-glycine, l-alanine, l-proline and l-serine. Does not fix atmospheric nitrogen. Does not require NaCl and is inhibited at NaCl concentrations above 3.0 % (w/v). The DNA G+C content of strain NVT, based on a draft genome sequence, is 66.1 mol%. MK-6 and MK-7 are the major respiratory quinones. Major cellular fatty acids are anteiso-C and iso-C. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the strain belongs to the family of the phylum The most closely related validated species is (93.7 % 16S rRNA gene sequence identity to its type strain PB90-1). Based on genotypic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, it was concluded that this strain represents a novel genus and species, for which the name gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of this novel species is NVT (=ATCC BAA-2697;=DSM 29249).

Hadal zones account for the deepest 45% of oceanic depth range and play an important role in ocean biogeochemical cycles. As the least-explored aquatic habitat on earth, further investigation is still required to fully elucidate the microbial taxonomy, ecological significance, metabolic diversity, and adaptation in hadal environments. In this study, a novel strain Lsc_1132 was isolated from sediment of the Mariana Trench at 10,954 m in depth.

The worldwide distributed family Allocreadiidae Looss, 1902 is predominantly parasitic in freshwater fish and occasionally in amphibians and reptiles. It contains 15 genera, of which only Allocreadium, Creptotrema, Wallinia and Creptotrematina have been reported in Argentina. The records of Allocreadium species still require further verification.

The Late Jurassic fossil deposits of southern Germany, collectively known as the 'Solnhofen Archipelago', are one of the world's most important sources of Mesozoic vertebrates. Complete skeletons of cartilaginous fishes (Chondrichthyes), whose skeletal remains are rare in the fossil record and therefore all the more valuable, are represented, among others, by exceptionally well-preserved rays (superorder Batomorphii). Despite their potential for research in several areas, including taxonomy, morphology, ecology, and phylogeny, the number of studies on these chondrichthyans is still very limited.

Meristematic fungi are mainly defined as having aggregates of thick-walled, melanised cells enlarging and reproducing by isodiametric division. black meristematic and meristematic-like fungi have been allied to , which currently has two accepted families, and , with fungi mainly regarded as pathogens, parasites, saprobes and epiphytes of different plant species. This study aimed to verify the phylogenetic position using four nuclear markers (SSU, LSU, ITS and ) of the genera associated with , namely , , and , and the new genus, .
